Ragnarok Themes by the Filharmonika Orchestra
This for me is one of the most enjoyable and memorable moments at Level Up Live 2008. It literally sent chills down my spine and I’m sure that the thousands in attendance also felt the same thing. To those who weren’t at Live, you missed a truly historic event. The Filharmonika Orchestra, led by Gerard Salonga, played several themes of Ragnarok Online, namely: Intro, Juno, and Prontera. This was one of the few times in LIVE that the crowd actually gave a rousing applause after the performance. I captured the performance on my camera phone and I uploaded it on Youtube for everyone to enjoy. Watch it after the jump.
Thank you so much to Gerard Salonga and the Filharmonika Orchestra for doing this performance. It was really something you won’t forget - especially if you’re a gamer like me. It’s events like this that make me scratch my hand when I start thinking about how we will top this year’s live come 2009. Hmm… maybe we can host the World Hello Kitty Championships? Hahaha! :)

Hmm.. I wish they played “Fear” (GH Prison Theme)
I would only require an 8-6 man choir, 1 cello, 1 violin, and digital music.
I bet that this would be a very memorable experience.
