'Annalisa Plays Chrono Trigger' Piano rearrangements of the classic soundtrack by Yasunori Mitsuda
I’ve been a long time fan of piano renditions of game music. So many great game themes translate to the instrument so well, especially in the capable hands of a wonderful musician. That is exactly what the new album Annalisa Plays Chrono Trigger is all about. After hearing Annalisa’s take on these timeless tracks, you’ll agree this music was practically made for solo piano, as she breathes such a breadth of emotions into each track. Just as the original soundtrack did in game for anyone who has enjoyed the game.
I ran across Annalisa AKA ‘AnimalisaKeys’ a couple months ago, and have been enjoying the piano renditions on her YouTube page during my writing sessions ever since. I was easily lured in by the fantastic renditions of Chrono Trigger, but have also enjoyed her videos covering the likes of Legend of Zelda, Banjo-Kazooie. Even games I hadn’t yet heard music from like I am Setsuna and Octopath Traveller have been great to listen to.
Listen to Annalisa Plays Chrono Trigger now on Amazon Music, Spotify, and YouTube Music.
