I. INTRO
The following is a brief consideration of the game's soundtrack Final Fantasy VII.
One of the most successful videogames ever, defined as "probably the best game ever created", Final Fantasy VII is considered by many to be the best chapter of the entire flagship saga of Square-branded RPGs: in addition to a deep story and multiple implications and implications, an innovative and enjoyable game system, and epic characters reappeared among other things in the other episodes of the now famous and controversial "Compilation of FF7", to determine the sales record (more than 15 million copies in all the world) the quality of a soundtrack definitely worthy of the other characteristics of the title certainly had an important weight.
Responsible and main performer of the music of FF7 is once again Nobuo Uematsu, the self-taught composer of Koichi who from nothing created the typical atmospheres of the now timeless saga: it can be said that Final Fantasy is at least as much as Hironobu Sakaguchi is.
The Official Sound Track of Final Fantasy VII was released in Japan on February 10, 1997, and again in March 2004, under the label of DigiCube first and of Square-Enix then, produced by Nobuo Uematsu and Minoru Akao, recorded in the Sound City of Tokyo; it counts 4 CDs for a total duration of 279 minutes and 54 seconds.
