Piano Fantasies – music from SQUARE ENIX (Vinyl)

Pianist Mischa Cheung will give the world premiere performance of the Piano Fantasies programme on October 31, 2025, at Dai-ichi Seimei Hall in Tokyo. The studio album will be released on the same day on all major digital platforms, as well as on CD and vinyl.

Piano Fantasies features twelve newly arranged piano works from four of SQUARE ENIX’s most beloved game series: FINAL FANTASY, KINGDOM HEARTS, CHRONO TRIGGER, and Secret of Mana. The concert marks the first public performance of the complete programme, giving audiences the chance to experience the full musical journey as conceived for the album.

Produced by Merregnon Studios, Piano Fantasies presents new interpretations of SQUARE ENIX’s iconic soundtracks. The album features cover artwork created by the in-house art team at SQUARE ENIX and will be released on CD and vinyl in collaboration with German label Black Screen Records.

To accompany the release, a series of monthly performance videos will debut on the official SQUARE ENIX Music YouTube channel starting July 24.

Album producer and artistic director Thomas Böcker comments:

“This album holds special meaning for me. Many fans still remember Symphonic Fantasies, our orchestral concert dedicated to the music of SQUARE ENIX – and Piano Fantasies carries that same spirit of musical storytelling into a more intimate setting. Mischa Cheung brings great sensitivity and clarity to the music, and the result feels both rooted in the original and reimagined with fresh perspective.”
