I had originally arranged the Main Theme from Final Fantasy VII, one of my favorite themes in gaming ever for its sweeping, haunting melody, in 2015 for my community orchestra here in Houston for piano, strings, clarinet, flute, and trombone, and performed it at Oni-Con in Galveston that year. In the interest of balancing out the sound and creating as many opportunities for people to participate as possible, Emily helped me expand the arrangement to include more brass and winds, and I am greatly indebted to her for doing so, as I am usually not accustomed to writing for such large groups, especially winds and brass.\nAs to be expected from such a talented, passionate group as Materia, everyone killed it on their parts and hearing the whole thing together was such a thrill, I had never thought it could sound so beautiful. It is an honor to be one of the featured arrangers on this EP along with so many consummate musicians for such a worthy cause.\"\nRuby Toung: Producer, Arranger\nAndrew Dunn: Cello\nAshlee Busch: Flute\nDamian Nguyen: Oboe, Bassoon\nEmily McMillan: Arranger\nGregory Orosz: Clarinet\nJoe Chen: Viola\nNing-Chih Hsu: Violin (I)\nPatrick Allred: Trombone\nRobby Duguay: French Horn, Trumpet\nRosie Samter: Violin (II)\nSean Schafianski: Mixing Engineer\nTRACK 3\n\"In 2012, I had just recently decided that a career change was in order after 10 years in a totally unrelated field. As a longtime musician, and longtime videogame aficionado, I knew that Game Audio was the logical choice.\nWhile attending my very first game conference, the final panel presented a video of the ending to Journey, with music on full display during the sequence. The piece was, of course, Apotheosis by Austin Wintory. That piece will always be a marker on my journey (pun intended) for that juncture in my life.\nAfter the terrible destruction in Houston, Materia Collective began discussing ways to help. When talking about an album to bring hope to people who need it, that was instantly the first piece that came to mind for me.\nThis track represents intense personal and professional growth for me as a musician, and as a human being. And as things go, this interpretation could only have happened with a team of absolutely wonderful people that enthusiastically jumped in and helped me get to the finish line. There were 47 amazing musicians, who submitted 77 wonderful performances to make this vision a reality.\nI hope that in some way, Austin's work will continue to inspire and help those who are in the process of rebuilding their lives.\"\nStephen Robert Froeber: Producer, Arranger\nAlex Parrish: Flute, Oboe\nAndrew Dunn: Cello\nAndrew Steffen: Viola\nAnn Zeng: Vocals (Tenor)\nMelancholy Robot: Vocals (Tenor)\nCharles Ritz: Percussion (Seedpods), Percussion (Tambourine)\nDamian Nguyen: Bassoon\nDan DeSimone: Piccolo\nDaniel Romberger: Engraving, Vocals (Bass), Vocals (Baritone), Trombone\nDarby Cupit: Vocals (Bass)\nFabian Fabro: Percussion (Kulintang)\nMichael Garrett Steele: Engraving\nIan Martyn: Bass Recorder, Percussion (Bodhrán), Vocals (Tenor)\nJay Kim: Violin (II)\nJeff Swingle: Vocals (Baritone)\nJesse Buddington: Vocals (Overtones)\nJoe Chen: Viola\nJohn Michael Hunt: Soprano Saxophone\nJohn Robert Matz: French Horn, Vocals (Tenor), Trumpet (Solo), Irish D Whistle, Irish Low Whistle\nJon Bash: Engraving, Percussion (Bass Drum (Mallets)), Percussion (Bass Drum (Sticks)), Percussion (Djembe)\nKeadrin Dick: Cello\nKen Crouch: Trumpet (II)\nKirill Polyanskiy: Engraving, Violin\nLaura Intravia: Vocals (Alto), Vocals (Soprano)\nLauren Liebowitz: Flute\nLucas Guimaraes: Vocals (Baritone)\nMai Yishan: Flute\nMarcela Estelie: Vocals (Soprano)\nMason Lieberman: Cello\nMatheus Manente: Vocals (Baritone)\nMichael Hoffman: Vocals (Baritone)\nMichael Kohl: Vocals (Tenor)\nNanaya Sakurai: Vocals (Tenor)\nBrian Diamond: Vocals (Baritone), Vocals (Bass)\nReven: Vocals (Soprano), Vocals (Alto)\nRosie Samter: Viola\nSam Bobinski: Bass\nSean Schafianski: Flute\nSirenstar: Vocals (Soprano), Vocals (Alto)\nSoundole VGM Covers: Clarinet\nJosué Ferreira de Oliveira: Flute\nTim Rosko: Vocals (Bass), Vocals (Baritone), Vocals (Tenor)\nTrey Hodge: Vocals (Bass)\nTroy Strand: Bass Trombone\nTRACK 4\n\"'Ending Theme' from the Pokémon series is a very heartfelt piece brimming with nostalgia and warmth.
