This page primarily serves to document filmed performances of Chrono music, whether played by axe-wielding shredders or classically-trained orchestras. Prerequisites for a concert's listing on this page are a) the presence of a Chrono series song in the set list and b) footage of the Chrono song's performance. Listings are supplemented by reviews or blog entries covering the concerts where available and links to videos beside each track title. Listings are sorted by artists, who are briefly explained textually and visually in preface.

Eminence Symphony Orchestra

• Website - Eminence Online
• Wikipedia - Eminence Symphony Orchestra
• Members - Six or seven depending on guests
• Base - Sydney, Australia

The Eminence Symphony Orchestra in Sydney, Australia was founded in 2003 by Hiroaki Yura. Eminence focuses particularly on the music of notable Japanese video games and anime. The orchestra's vision is to "inject something bold, dynamic and fresh into classical music". Eminence wishes to "break down the barriers between the audience and the musicians, and to revive orchestra in today's society; particularly amongst youth". Lately, Eminence has broken out of their native Australian market with one or two-shot tours in Japan, the US, and Singapore. They've gained the patronage of composers Yasunori Mitsuda and Hitoshi Sakimoto, who have appeared at their concerts and supported recordings. Their US performance at Otakon 2007 was well received and as they continue to gain more exposure, their popularity and prowess will aggregate.
