Frequently asked questions
What is the track list?
The official track list is not printed on the CD packaging, but the performance includes orchestral arrangements of themes from major Zelda titles such as Ocarina of Time, A Link to the Past, and the original Legend of Zelda.
Is this the same as the Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony?
No. The 30th Anniversary Concert is a separate live event held in Kyoto in 2016, distinct from the 2011 25th Anniversary Symphony. The 30th concert focuses on a different selection of pieces and a unique live atmosphere. If you already own the 25th Anniversary CD, this is a complementary addition, not a duplicate.
Is the CD region-locked?
The CD is a standard audio disc, so it will play in any CD player worldwide. There are no region restrictions.
Is this a limited edition?
The concert itself was sold out, and the CD release is a physical recording of that event. While not explicitly marked as limited, availability can vary, so it's wise to purchase while in stock. If you're a collector, consider grabbing a copy sooner rather than later.
