Kingdom Hearts - Play! Toronto 2006

[SasoryCantabile]

i love this game is amazing!!!!! and the music ahhhh so awesome!!!!!!!!!

[shakazu1u]

2 people couldn't find their way off the island.

[zaviusfirerave]

F**k! I missed the like button and clicked the pause button instead.

[xtwinklenshinex]

Man, I remember wanting to go that day. I totally missed out! :(

[fizzles5]

I've never heard an orchestral version of Sanctuary before......

IT WAS AMAZING.

[littleegg95]

can someone please tell me the song name that starts at 1:50? i herd it in a trailer and cant find it

[link0099]

@littleegg95 it is the orchestral version of "sanctuary" or "passion"

same name ones japanese

[DisAwpProductions]

Anyone else get the feeling that the fool conducting this thing has never played the games in his life?

[Midgarelite]

@DisAwpProductions haha my youtube comment of the day....

[LockePhilote]

they rushed the crap out of Hikari... but what ever. it still sounds great.

[littlederfking911]

There is a rumor that Kingdom Hearts 3 will come out for PS3 and Xbox 360 summer 2012, also a Kingdom Hearts movie is set to be filmed this coming winter.

[Jootjenest00]

@littlederfking911 not true

tetsuya nomura already said he would love to bring out kh3 in 2 years when it is the 10 year bday of kh serie. but it would be impossible with all the games he is doing atm.

[littlederfking911]

@Jootjenest00

yes, I saw this interview his self, however, he said he would like to have it "by then", so it could be before that, also he said it would have to be after Final Fantasy XIV was completed... and that came out September 30...

[fizzles5]

@littlederfking911 *spittake*

Sorry, I know this is late, but what's this about a KH movie?

[littlederfking911]

@fizzles5 Not Kingdom Hearts the movie, but Kingdom Hearts 3 (the game). if you like Kingdom Hearts check out my channel!

[megalilbam]

when dose kingdom hearts 3 come out?

[vitranisuber]

60fg... this symphony is so great in which it does video game songs! and they do it well... new fan. ^_^

[allthatishere]

Beginning at 1:56. That part moves me to no extent! One of the most beautiful melodies I've ever heard in my lifetime.

[MegaBoshi]

I say kingdom hearts has to be one of the best disney games out there because its fighting & awesomeness in it & plus you see characters from disney when you where young back then you know & mickey & sora, key blade wielders, this is a game what everyone should want. A 10+ game where you can play with disney characters.

This is where you can test their potential and have fun with disney characters helping.

The best Disney RPG game ever.

[1sexyalbino]

@MegaBoshi

This game was made by Squareenix. They just used Disney characters in it.

[003Godsend]

@MegaBoshi hahahaha cause there were so many other good disney games :P

[Geinonenffx]

Mind-expanding experience. Really!

[Sora575]

There would be no such thing as an RPG, no, ANY kind of Video Game without music. It's people like Nobuo Uematsu that change the way the world views electronic entertainment.

[Jae132]

@Sora575 I agree. Music is that element in a video game that puts the finishing touch on the game as a whole. It really helps set up the mood, which is important especially in RPG storylines. Plus... composers like Uematsu are just KICK ASS XD!!!!

[allthatishere]

@Sora575 i couldn't have said it better myself!

[Whatsmynameagain03]

The flutist is amazing!!!

[rikukingdomhearts979]

that vid is fake and gay its edited

[liamtoot]

@rikukingdomhearts979

fake and gay?? someone is watching too much ray videos

[PrayForTanqueray]

Play! is truely awesome. I would really like to see them! It's just wonderful to listen to them playing all these awesome songs.

[Lumanous]

Sooo going to this is April XD Kingdom hearrts is the besttt

[davidallan92]

So jealous :L, hope they come to Glasgow :)

[Skullatoran]

KH RULES

[Fanime456]

BEAUTIFUL!!

video game music will always be better than radio music for some reason, but who cares let's enjoy it while we can

[monroeazz]

the first part made me tear up

[masterofgamesgames]

It's so beautiful...*sniff*

[FatevsDestiny777]

this is my dream! to be in an orchestra group that travels around the world and plays music. even better, video game music! this is AMAZING!!! (sigh)

[xman49]

O_O Dang.

[MajinBuu609]

that shit gave me chills... :D wish i could see the players performing it though

[zihak8]

y pensar que este juego me dio vergüenza ajena la primera vez que lo vi (porque sale mikey, realmente odio ese personaje ¬¬)

*-*

[fugtard]

I wouldn't mind if the game was endless.

[Fanime456]

that is one beautiful piece of music! i love kingdom hearts!

[terk0iz]

♫

[majaimay]

totally felt the same way

[hakan1]

when i finished kingdom hearts 1 i felt an empty void like im not done yet and the story had to go on.

then when i finished kingdom hearts 2..i got rly sad yet i felt happy that everyone got back together in the end. it was a mixed joy that i can't explain has any1 else got this

[lastunusedname]

I thought the end of KH2 was a very happy one (until after the credits). Everyone was together again, the Heartless were taken care of and everyone could finally rest and live a life without fighting. The only thing to be sad about was that the game was over and the sequel didn't exist yet.

[kazumasoju]

@hakan1 yeah I know what you mean I miss the game sooooooo much

[SREproducciones]

@hakan1 I only managed to play KH2 but i loved, it entered my list of favorite games where it is competing with games like Halo 3 and Fable 2. It is simply amazing. Hope there was Kingdom Hearts 3 but for now we only get handheld games.

[Treni217]

@SREproducciones Hopefully they'll make a real 3 on the PS3 or something. ;c You have a PS3? Or not?

[SREproducciones]

@Treni217 I have one and it Rocks!!!

[Treni217]

@SREproducciones LOLYES.

PS3's are better. ;3

[0SweetRevenge0]

It's a bit faster than I'm used to ^^ but Fantasia Alla Marcia sounds pretty cool played like this too.

[unpredictaaable]

drgilnksdfbnksjf, this is pretty awesome.

[zummone]

why did they switch off the awesomness of the kh1 theme to the second one

[tarkeke]

because the second one is just as awesome thats why^^

[zummone]

not as awesome as the first one in my opinion

[Liqliq888]

i like traverse town

[mysteryscythe]

I hear Sanctuary

[windknight111]

HAHAHA!!! We did this in our school orchestra. It was so good.

[CrystaIce]

could u give me the sheet music for the flute part? if u have it....

[itana1]

utada = love love pwnage

[pfuhlie1]

makes me smile :)

[penguinpanda0]

I wish they'd play 13th struggle

[ghettosagal]

HOLY FUCK ME TOO

[XxXAznDragonXxX]

Omfg!!!!

Dude that is truely amazing

I want to piece a Symphony like this to play music from the things i love!

[ginobarrau]

This remembers me what a great game KH is. It's one of the few games that has magic in itself.

[tangoproductions]

I wish my school orchestra would get together with the school band and play this song. That would make me unbeleivably happy.

[flix12po]

this song is so beautiful

[Rpkist77]

Lol, I've always like Simple and Clean

[uchihamadara19]

lol, this reminds me of the end of the 1st kh, the music started to play after i beat it and my cousin who was watching started to cry, saying it was sad. sure it was sad but because he was crying i started to laugh :p

[tomygunny1989]

lol

[ChibiChibinessChan]

This made me look back on how I miss playing KH. I remember when I first got it, I was so excited. And when it ended it made me cry because it was over D: I love the music for KH.

[teepeemaniac]

Yep yep, this game seriously rocks. The storyline is flawless, the music is incredible, and the characters are awesome! =D

[tarkeke]

the game rocks, the music rocks^^

but the story isn't flawless, but still great..

tell me....SPOILER BELOW:

what exactly happened to sora once he became himself again in hollow bastion in kh1? did he become a human with soul and hearth, or just a nobody?

who is it who talks to sora at the beginning of kh1 in the hall of awakening?

there are so many strange things that are not answered. still the game is very good

[chonsinn]

you my friend are an amateur at playing rpgs

[tarkeke]

lol, yeah, being amateur with an rpg is certainly the right definition of me since I was a bit dissapointed in how the second game didn't wrap everything up nicely and instead had lots of filler (good filler) to fill the spots where the main plot could have been expanded upon. tell me, don't you agree?

[tarkeke]

I don't know.. did you try to insult me or be funny, or perhaps both?

I don't get it, it's not what you said that provoked me a bit, it's the fact that you wrote it and hoped to achieve something. as for me, I want to achieve a good answer, what was it you wanted to achieve?

[chonsinn]

i wanted to achieve nothing.. but as for your answer .. i dont have it just an opinion thanks for responding back my good friend

[tarkeke]

no problem bud

[tarkeke]

the word you might be looking for is nitpicker, I can agree on that though

[CatgirlAnimeFreak]

I'm not sure, really. I think we'd need to play Chain of Memories if we want the full story between KH and KH2.

In fact, yeah - we'd need to play CoM to know the full story. XD

Can't wait for KH3. o3o

[tarkeke]

nah, you don't really have to. the ansem reports covers what happens in oblivion.

the only thing the second game never really explains is how specifically the org 13 members die in oblivion. but really, there is no character development in com because of what happens. the only KINDA important part is riku. But ansem tells what he has gone through at the ending of the game so there's that one covered. have fun with kh3 ^^ I don't have ps3 =C

[NaneRulz]

Especially if Sora forgets about the events of CoM, it gives you the feeling that it was just a filler game.

[tarkeke]

and com doesn't cover what exactly has happened to sora either, it hardly explains anything that isn't explained in kh 2 that is necessary to know

[KillaTequilla83]

theres a game for that though, didnt they already release 365/2 days? (not sure about name) well that one is supposed to focus on roxas and what he did during the organization during sora's sleep.

[tarkeke]

they have?! I thought it was ment to come out in june sometime

[KillaTequilla83]

oh actualy im not sure ahaha, but there IS a game i know that clears the stuff up about roxas and whatnot.:)

[squaresoft13]

hoo yes, i got that feeling too

this game's awesome!

[tangoproductions]

I felt the exact same way. The game is absolutely beautiful. I wish I could get these guys to play the entire soundtrack and put it on a CD.

Plus, Sora's one heckuvva cute animation dude.

[ximenanowell]

i know and i know a person who looks like sora and a person who looks like roxas

[VanSquall]

I love this part of the concert. I went to the Detroit concert and it blew me away. Yoko Shimomura the composer for the game was there in the audience sitting in the row right across from mine and I didn't know. The only bad thing about the Detroit concert was that they cut the Chrono Cross/Trigger Medley and Aeirth's theme. Other than that it was really good.

[ShastaMustafat]

Ey me too, Lol, the part of the TAN TAAAAAN TAN TAN TAAAAAN TAN. is... argh! omg SO GOOD! only this one and canon in D can make me that.

[Runeuz]

the whole play gave my chills, because that are so good!

[kairi210]

the beginning litteraly gave me chills ^^^

amazing.

Kingdom Hearts is the best.

~Kairi

[prviewer1]

OH God! I will go the the next concert April 18th, 2009 in Dayton, Ohio, as a gift for my graduation!!

[iluvpockystx]

The song always give me goosebumps

in the beginning..but its a good thing =3

[RainyDay1023]

I love every song of kingdom hearts!

It's the best game forever^^

[kiljmu2]

the beginning gave me the chills

[ShinyRayquaza2]

My dad took me to the symphony in 2006 at Detroit, Michigan! God, that was the best gift I ever got!

[soahcitycom]

kh2 ending theme

[mullet1222]

i would love to see these people in person ^_^

[thetallcheker]

i think this is just different songs being put together not just one.

[hardr0ck]

i guess KH must've been too long ago for me... I don't remember this song. Unless it was in KH2 as well (which i only just played last year) and I don't have a good memory.

[Pein368]

This is the song that plays during the credits of KH1 and 2 iirc.

[jimmyboi007]

Simply amazing!

[foreverlatino]

I cant wait for the CD to come out

[keikic1989]

Don't forget this song is composed by Utada Hikaru, a famous japanese DIVA. It's transformed by another person to become a symphony! What a masterpiece!!!

[kualalu]

Actually, this seems to be the ending theme of KH1. And as we all know, Utada Hikaru only composed, at least sung, the main themes of the game, which are a leitmotifs througout the game. But the music is all composed by Yoko Shimomura. I love the music of these games!

[canime7]

This was very beautiful and EPIC =] <33

- i don't know why but it's my favorite of all the orchestra ones I've seen so far. ^^

[wizard924]

Please come to the West coast of the USA! It's to far to travel to Chicago!

[SkyLandOcean]

Please, come to Perth! I'm a HUGE Kingdom Hearts/Final Fantasy fan!

[llDEFYll]

Just drove 7 and a half hours to and from Fort Worth, Tx for this event and it was absolutely worth it. The main reason I went is for the Kingdom Hearts part,it was amazing. *Chills

[Kalnor]

haha, it was indeed worth it. We drove eight hours :D You aren't anyone I know are you? :P

[Lantis02]

I went to the fort worth show as well... Only 4 hours for me ^_^

[GeneLangley]

Nice. I'll be seeing that the 26th, six rows from the orchestra.

[khcosplayprodustions]

omg!!!i wish i was there to see that!! that is sooooooooooooo good

[Yameuh17]

I get too see them in Seattle.

[OnlyTbone]

i only wish my band director would go for something like this....

[jba1234567890]

oh so true...what instrument do you play? I'm a French Hornist.

[GameNinja13]

i play clarinet and i am in high school, and we played an arrangement of this and i have to say the arrangement sucked and we never played it in concert, it is a good song, but you must play it in an orchestra and not in a normal band...

[DoodletownSpawn]

orchestra rocks.

[dirkraft]

The instrument makes no sense (to most people) but I am a former player as well and swear by that instrument. Never let it go.

[LoverGurl1113]

Awesome! I was there me went crazy!

[gameguy7777]

if only they would come to nebraska

[glancesherlock]

I love the music from Kingdom Hearts. It's just so well written, unlike most games.

[raiden123]

tell me which games to you are well written??

[glancesherlock]

I never said anything about story line. I meant the music. I mean come on, the Mario theme is a little catchy, but it gets annoying after awhile. Kingdom Hearts, I would actually buy the soundtrack to.

[taname117]

xD Sounds just like the original soundtrack. My city symphony is playing this for the Fall semester.

[manila8]

Kingdom Hearts changed my life, and probably the best video game I have played, hopefully more games similar to Kingdom Hearts come out

[miyokorulez]

Same here! When I first played it, I was like, OMG! I couldn't stop, it was so good! I just wish that my orchestra teacher could let us play this!

[blinkplus93]

beautiful :')

[luminaire23]

Wow... just wow. "Sanctuary" is as beautiful as ever. :-)

Heh, to think I used to be skeptical of KH.

[corneliusfingers]

I WANT PLAY TO COME TO THE UK!!!!

[cowkow88]

The tunes are both from the Kingdom hearts OST

1. 02 - Hikari -KINGDOM Orchestra Instrumental Version from the Kindom heart's OST

2. 02 - Passion - KINGDOM Orchestra Instrumental Version from Kingdom hearts 2 OST

[Con818]

this si one of the saddest songs i think...

[basch2020]

I'm surprised and dissappointed that this medley doesn't include Dearly Beloved. It's such an important song to the Kingdom Hearts franchise...

[Stormie33]

Dearly Beloved is a great song, but it's mainly a piano solo, there's just not enough happening in it to have an orchestra play it, it's like buttering your bread with a butcher's knife...or something...

This performance rocks, love this version of Passion with strings instead of the horns in the original, great stuff, so beautiful.

[SorasAngel528]

omg this is amazing i love Yoko Shimomura work it's great

[Torusan]

Just so you know, the first minute is just an orchestrated version Utada's Simple and Clean and starting at 2:00 is also Utada's Passion.

[cowkow88]

to be exact, they started wif hikari(simple and clean is a little different from hikari...lolx)

[Nipote]

I think i really start to cry... Wonderful..

[Kingdomheartstime]

How come they don't do concerts in Vancouver?

[Kingdomheartstime]

Ohhh this is just TO beautiful. I have to watch it over and over again

[HitomiLove]

Are they gonna host another concert in Toronto anytime soon?

[Fry333]

pure genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[misschibiamelia]

I really love Play!, all of their pieces are beautiful. They all seem to play a little faster than the song should be, but I still like it.

[ysilent]

Simply...AMAZING.

Wonderful video!

I agree...Yoko Shimomura is a genius! She made a beautiful OST for Kingdom Hearts series.

[wickedude]

Oh, this is great.

[shadow7790]

wow this blows my mind away i can just imagine me playing on kingdom hearts 2 agen this game rocks

[legendaryzabuza]

Wow this so freaking amazing

[tenshinoyuki688]

Thank you so much for posting this video. It moved me to tears, and I had goosebumps throughout the whole 4 minutes and 24 seconds. I'm really grateful that you've uploaded videos of this event so that I, and everyone else who wasn't able to attend can experience it, too. Thank you so much!

[Willforbes296532]

ok thats just weird

[tenshinoyuki688]

Why was that weird? Can't someone be so pulled in by a favorite piece of video game music heard for the first time in a symphonic format that they have goosebumps? I really don't see what's wrong with that.

[MagmarFire]

Beautiful. Simply beautiful. Yoko Shimomura is a GENIUS!!! Genius, I say!

[MarzieDee]

That sounds exactly like the music from the game. really impressive.

[DaGoosinator]

I  LOVE

KINGDOM HEARTS!!!

[runescapeizfun2]

wow!!! this sounded exactly like it did on kh1/2!

[shizznah]

personally, i think the orchestra plays it too fast.

[sakuraiandco]

so accurate... sounds.. just like the game!!!

[gyro3]

I've never seen such a crappy game with such beautiful music as Kingdom Hearts.

The Worst game ever has the best soundtrack ever.

[InkH3art]

Well thats your idea of the game. I think the game is awesome. Maybe you just suck at it?

Or your not a disney fan

[shizznah]

really? well, i've almost finished writing out the music for this on midi then i'll score it... i've got it as accurate as possible. it's a f-ing awesome song... oh hey!!! it changes into the ending theme...

[Harle4]

R you going to post it anywhere? plz send/post a link if so. thx :)

[BIGsherm7272]

this is my dream. to play this song

[Dsleaz]

:') tear

[greenkitty]

beautiful

[Miuni]

*Tears* So beautiful... *Sniff*

[VintageAerith]

Waaaah, I saw this in Philly last July. Most. Amazing. Time. EVER. Thank you for recording this--I forgot how truly incredible Kingdom Hearts music sounds when it's live.

[Asianpianokeys]

Omg. this song made me cry. it was the best. i cant wait to go to their concert
