This year's month of December will mark the 20th anniversary of Square Enix's very first Final Fantasy game (also available on the PSP). As a toast to this most special occasion, AWR Music Productions, LLC is announcing the upcoming Distant Worlds: music from Final Fantasy World Tour which will begin on Tuesday, December 4, at the Stockholm Concert Hall in Sweden.

At the helm of this event will be conductor/executive producer Arnie Roth, who will command the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, and the choir AllmÃ¤nna SÃ¥ngen. Here's a brief rundown of the songs to be played at the program, all originally written by Final Fantasy series composer Nobuo Uematsu:

Final Fantasy series: Main Theme, Swing de Chocobo
Final Fantasy I to III: Medley
Final Fantasy III DS: Opening
Final Fantasy IV: Theme of Love
Final Fantasy V: Dear Friends
Final Fantasy VI: Opera "Maria and Draco"
Final Fantasy VII: One-Winged Angel, Opening - Bombing Mission, Aerith's Theme
Final Fantasy VIII: Liberi Fatali, Fisherman's Horizon, Love Grows, Don't be Afraid
Final Fantasy IX: Vamo' alla Flamenco
Final Fantasy X: To Zanarkand
Final Fantasy XI: Memoro de la Stono - Distant Worlds

And if you're asking, yes - Uematsu is indeed going to be at the concert. Tickets for this event will be available since October 17 and can be purchased through the Stockholm Concert Hall box office, or online. For the fans that do manage to make it, you'll also be happy to know that the Distant Worlds: music from Final Fantasy CD will be available for purchase at the concert grounds.

Now, if you can't make it to the December event, there will be another Distant Worlds concert being scheduled for March 1, in Chicago. Arnie Roth will remain the conductor, with music from the Chicagoland Pops Orchestra, and voices from the CPO Festival Choir. Uematsu will be attending the event too.
