Elder-Geek.com proudly presents the opera scene from Final Fantasy VI (Final Fantasy III on the SNES), upscaled and re-animated in 1080p and 16:9 aspect ratio, set to an orchestral performance of the composition.

Credits:
Composed and arranged by Nobuo Uematsu
Written by Yoshinori Kitase & Nobuo Uematsu
Performed by The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra
Sung by Emma Wetter, Fredrik Strid, and Johan Schinkler
Conducted by Arnie Roth
From the game by Squaresoft/Square-Enix
Sprite work, minor rewrites, animation, and video by Eliot Hagen

From the album, 'Distant Worlds: Music from Final Fantasy,' by AWR Music.

Note: The reason that Ultros never drops onto the stage is because, in the game, the opera is ended when your party and Ultros fight and Setzer comes to kidnap Maria (Celes). In the game, Draco & Ralse never duel and Maria & Draco never sing the final verse. This video is of the complete opera.

  • This was epic as a kid, and it's epic now. Square needs to have all their guys play through this game a few times before they keep churning out the crap they are today.

  • I can see why Setzer wanted to hit that........

  • congratuletion this was beutifull

  • Listen this music when I was a kid, dont ask me why I hate the reggaeton

  • Still brings a tear to me after this ff it went south after.Greatest Soundtrack Period

  • Such a shame that this was titled "Opera" when they have bloody SPEAKING!, It's more like a musical than Opera. The spoken bits should have been changed to recitative to accommodate the characteristic of 'Opera'

  • SO EPIC!!

    And without Ultros' showtime xD

  • This needs to be staged as a night of two one-acts, and the other half of the show will be "I Want To Be Your Canary!" It can totally use the same set!

  • 7 people either forgot Celes' lines or failed to stop Ultros.

    This was just...beautiful... :`)

  • It was just a SNES video game I was playing in 8th grade elementary school until this part. So I stayed home 'sick' for 3 days. I wasn't faking it. I hadn't slept in 3 days. I had Final Fantasy III fever. Sorry mom...

  • One of the most wonderful 10 minutes in my life......

    Celes's part make me always cry..... pure beauty this music....

  • One word....perfect!
