The New Japan BGM Philharmonic Orchestra is holding a series of concerts, with the first featuring music composed by Yuzo Koshiro, as well as the man himself as a guest.
The concert will feature music from the following games:
- The Scheme
- Streets of Rage
- Streets of Rage 2
- Etrian Odyssey
- ActRaiser
Furthermore, every song from ActRaiser will be presented in orchestra for the first time in 25 years since the game’s release, according to Koshiro himself.
Koshiro has also been posting some snippets from the NJBP’s rehearsals, such as the Etrian Odyssey suite, which includes ‘Destruction Begets Decay’ and ‘The Capital of Shinjuku’ as part of its medley:
