I wish You a quick recovery!

Indeed, the concert was wonderful. I'll write more about it soon. And about weather - good to know it's not normal in Sweden. On Saturday it was almost a freezing hell! xD And I've thought that winter in Poland can be harsh...

Wow, thanks so much for the videos, Rictrunks! 

I'm completely floored that this was done by a youth orchestra...when I heard that, I was assuming something along the lines of our local high school symphonic bands, but this was so much better!  Seems like the production quality was very high.  I wish I could see something like this within driving distance, like Chicago, which would seem like one of the prime choices if this came to the US.  But this sort of thing never happens around here.  Why not?  I thought Castlevania had a much bigger fanbase in the US than anywhere else.

I really envy any of you that were able to attend.  And Shelby...a cold held you back from a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity like this?  :)

Holy crap, isn't that the intro from Legacy of Darkness??

I'm amazed they actually picked a song from the N64 games. They are true CV fans.

Nice.  Hey, wasn't there a CD there you could buy and then post its music online so that those of us who couldn't go to the concert can download the music?

@Dark Nemesis - unfortunately I wasn't able to record entire concert and I don't have the Clock Tower from Aria of Sorrow. I hope someone else recorded this fragment.

For now I'm preparing the report, films and photo gallery.

@darkwzrd4 - I haven't heard about something like that.

God. Damn.
Wathing those videos almost made me cry. I live 4 subway stations away from the concert hall, which is less than 10 minutes basically, and I still didn't go  :-[ But I was really sick so I couldn't have gone.
Ok so I'm gonna go and kill myself a little now KTHNXBYE.

Darn, I was hoping that there would be something like that there.  Oh well.

The official page http://www.castlevaniaconcert.com/ says we can expect photos, audio and clips in the near future. I'd be surprised if they didn't record the whole thing. Also, there were probably some people in the audience recording it, even if they aren't posting at the CVDF. We should keep an eye on youtube in the following days/weeks I guess...

This person ( http://www.youtube.com/user/Fearnavigatr ) has been posting a lot of videos. Not the best quality, but at least it's something.
