Eminence Online, hosts of a video game concert (see the sidebar to the right), has interviewed Yasunori Mitsuda and fellow musicians. There's an important tidbit about the Chrono Cross arrange. Find the interview
here and the comment:
I'm going to release a Chrono Cross arranged album basically with Japanese musicians. I nearly decided who to employ in my mind, but it's still kept a secret (laughs). The direction of this album is national-less, which I'm best at. It will be an album with many factors, so please look forward to it.
