So excited for this! Although does it strike anyone else odd that they're repeating the same songs from the orchestra album in some places? Ah well, always like a good Wind Ensemble when I hear one :D

They did have a similar set list for both shows, with just a few variances. I'm fine with it. They are key songs from the series so it is expected.

Absolutely, and that first album was fantastic! Picking it up as soon as I can, need it for my KH music collection 0o0
