This page primarily serves to document filmed performances of Chrono music, whether played by axe-wielding shredders or classically-trained orchestras. For a full concert to be listed on this page, a video or audio recording of a Chrono song must exist. 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

Eminence.jpg

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". Eminence is a new and vibrant orchestra comprised of roughly 60 elite musicians. These musicians have come from many other established Symphony Orchestras such as Chen Gu who is presently Acting Associate Concertmaster at the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and other musicians who have worked with Australian Chamber Orchestra, Australian Opera and Ballet Orchestra, Queensland Symphony Orchestra, Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, Jeunesses Musicales World Orchestra, Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra, etc.

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.
