Upcoming Eminence Concert!

I have mentioned before that I am a regular stalker of Eminence - an Australia-based orchestra specialising in performing music from anime and video games.  Their performances are unparalleled, and they regularly bring in absolutely A-list guest composers.  Essentially, in the relatively small corner of the world that is Australia, they are a godsend to games and anime music fans long-resigned to their jealousy of the events held overseas.

Thus, I come with great news!  After a year of silence, Eminence is returning to Sydney to perform Memories of Fantasia on July 16 as part of the SMASH! anime convention at the Sydney Exhibition Centre.

There's no news on a setlist as of yet, but based on the title it is very likely to be a rehash of previous Nights of Fantasia.  This is not a bad thing.  I have my fingers crossed for an encore showing of Secret of Mana's Meridian Dance.

As a side note, Eminence badly needs help with their marketing.  Not even a  mention on their website!  This is the second concert is a row I've discovered through purely accidental means.  I am upset at your lack of advertising, Eminence.
