Arnie Roth, Conductor
This spectacular concert features the music of Japanese video game composer Nobuo Uematsu and others, and is conducted by GRAMMY award-winner Arnie Roth. This multimedia experience combines stirring screen images to match the soaring emotions of the Seattle Symphony performing music from SQUARE ENIX’s world-renowned FINAL FANTASY video game series.
Dear friends attending the Distant Worlds shows in Seattle,
Firstly, thank you for your continued support of the FINAL FANTASY game series and its music.
While I was originally planning to attend the wonderful performances by the Seattle Symphony with all of you, I must announce an unfortunate change of plans. Due to persistent and overwhelming physical fatigue, I regret to say that I cannot attend these concerts.
Right now, I must focus on rest and recovery so that I can regain my health as soon as possible and continue working with my good friend, Arnie. I look forward to seeing you all soon.
Sincerely,
Nobuo Uematsu
