Final Fantasy music is hitting the road once more. Series composer Nobuo Uematsu is teaming again with conductor/producer Arnie Roth to present a new worldwide Final Fantasy symphony tour, called Distant Worlds: Music From Final Fantasy.
The concert series will kick off this December with a performance in Stockholm, Sweden, then make its US debut in Chicago on March 1, 2008.
Tickets for the Chicago show, from $150-35, are on sale now. The $150 tickets include a copy of the CD, a tour program book, and admittance to a meet-and-greet with Uematsu after the performance.
An eponymous studio CD of pieces from the show will be available at the performances. A picture of the very nice CD packaging, and track lists from both the performance and CD are below.
