Just got note of this from xcomp: http://xcomprandomness.co.uk/2009...0th-anniversary-orchestral-album/

Basically, it looks like 13 of TENMON's soundtrack will be played and recorded by the Australia-based Eminence Symphony Orchestra. Here's the track list:
1. One More Chance, One More Time (Instrumental)
2. Omoide wa Tooku no Hibi [Memories are Distant Days]
3. Kanae no Kimochi [Kanae's Feelings]
4. The Place Promised in Our Early Days Theme
5. Futari no Keikaku / Kibou to Akogare [Their Plan / Hope and Aspiration]
6. Sayuri
7. The Place Promised in Our Early Days Theme (Piano Version)
8. Futari no Kattou [Their Differences]
9. Kimi no Koe (Instrumental) [Your Voice]
10. Through the Years and Far Away
11. Mikako kara no Tayori [News from Mikako]
12. She and Her Cat Theme
13. Bonus Track – She and Her Cat Theme (Piano Version)

Well, I've made use of this phrase for other things, but it definitely applies here: DO WANT!

OMG! FANBOYRAGE! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fua9ryHfeZI

Very nice quintet rendition of the theme that plays over the climactic scene of The Place Promised!

Side note update: I wonder if we should have a forum dedicated to TENMON's music? I mean, we tend to tie him together with Shinkai's work, but he has done projects that Shinkai wasn't a part of like the ef anime series.

I just realized that I don't have a TENMON-themed ringtone on my iPhone. I need to rectify this.

Great to hear that Tenmon's getting his due. Awesome performance, BTW. Very Happy

As an update, looks like you can pre-order the CD here (Thanks to Maltos for pointing that out).

I'll probably end up pre-ordering myself tonight...

There's a brief news post about the Promise CD on Shinkai's site. Google's translator didn't help much with putting it into English, but Shinkai seemed to be saying that he hadn't realized that it had been ten years since "Voices", till someone pointed it out, thus the release of the CD to celebrate. That's about all I got.
