Music from the video game Final Fantasy V

Music of Final Fantasy Final Fantasy I and II Final Fantasy III Final Fantasy IV Final Fantasy V Final Fantasy VI Final Fantasy VII series Final Fantasy VIII Final Fantasy IX Final Fantasy X Final Fantasy X-2 Final Fantasy XI Final Fantasy XII Final Fantasy XIII Final Fantasy XIII-2 Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII Final Fantasy XIV Final Fantasy XV Final Fantasy XVI Tactics series Chocobo series Crystal Chronicles series Compilation albums Concerts v t e

The music of the [video game](/source/Video_game) *[Final Fantasy V](/source/Final_Fantasy_V)* was composed by regular series composer [Nobuo Uematsu](/source/Nobuo_Uematsu). The *Final Fantasy V Original Sound Version*, a compilation of almost all of the music in the game, was released by [Square Co.](/source/Square_(video_game_company))/[NTT Publishing](/source/NTT_Publishing), and subsequently re-released by NTT Publishing after the game was brought to North America as part of the *[Final Fantasy Anthology](/source/Final_Fantasy_Anthology)*. An [arranged](/source/Arrangement) album entitled *Final Fantasy V Dear Friends*, containing a selection of musical tracks from the game arranged in multiple styles, including live and vocal versions, was released by Square/NTT Publishing and later re-released by NTT Publishing. Additionally, a collection of [piano](/source/Piano) arrangements composed by Nobuo Uematsu, arranged by Shirou Satou and played by Toshiyuki Mori titled *Piano Collections Final Fantasy V* was released by Square/NTT Publishing, and re-released by NTT Publishing.

The music received mixed reviews; while some reviewers enjoyed the soundtrack and found it to be underrated, others felt it was only of middling quality. Several pieces, especially "Dear Friends", remain popular today, and have been performed numerous times in orchestral concert series such as the *Dear Friends: Music from Final Fantasy* concert series, named after the *Final Fantasy V* piece, and the Orchestral Game Concert series. Music from the soundtrack has also been published in arranged and compilation albums by Square as well as outside groups.

## Concept and creation

Uematsu had originally calculated that the game would require more than 100 pieces of music, but managed to reduce the number to 56. He has stated that he developed the ideas for the music by first reading through the script and creating the titles for all of the tracks, then composing melodies to match the themes of the story and titles.[1] Uematsu felt that the sound quality of the soundtrack for *Final Fantasy V* was much better than that of *IV*. He also claimed that this resulted in the soundtrack release requiring two [CDs](/source/CD) as opposed to the one CD required for the *Final Fantasy IV* soundtrack. Uematsu has stated that he would have preferred to keep the soundtrack to one CD, in order to keep the price of the album low.[1]

## Albums

### *Final Fantasy V Original Sound Version*

Final Fantasy V Original Sound Version Soundtrack album by Nobuo Uematsu Released December 7, 1992 November 26, 1994 (re-release) October 1, 2004 (re-release) Recorded Sunrise Studio Length Disc 1: 60:02 Disc 2: 70:22 Label Square/NTT Publishing NTT Publishing (re-release) Producer Nobuo Uematsu

*Final Fantasy V Original Sound Version* is a [soundtrack](/source/Soundtrack) [album](/source/Album) of [video game music](/source/Video_game_music) from *[Final Fantasy V](/source/Final_Fantasy_V)*. The album contains the musical tracks from the game, composed, arranged, produced and performed by [Nobuo Uematsu](/source/Nobuo_Uematsu). It spans two discs and 67 tracks, covering a duration of 2:08:30. It was released on December 7, 1992 by Square and NTT Publishing with the catalog number *N33D-013~4*, and re-released on November 26, 1994 and October 1, 2004 by NTT Publishing with the catalog numbers of *PSCN-5015~6* and *NTCP-5015~6*, respectively.[2]

A [single](/source/Single_(music)) was released in 1992 titled *Final Fantasy V: 5+1*, consisting of the "Opening Theme", "Main Theme of FINAL FANTASY V", "Harvest", "Dungeon", and "Battle 1" tracks from the soundtrack, as well as the previously unreleased "MATOUYA no doukutsu" ("Matoya's Cave") from *[Final Fantasy](/source/Final_Fantasy_(video_game))*. It was published by NTT Publishing and had a catalog number of *NO9D-012* and a length of 14:46.[3] A single named *Final Fantasy V Mambo de Chocobo* was also released, containing the "Mambo de Chocobo" track from the game, as well as three unused tracks from the game and a compilation mix track. The single was released by NTT Publishing in 1993; it covered a duration of 16:14 and had a catalog number of *NO9D-016*.[4] Nine tracks from the soundtrack were included in a bonus CD titled *Music From FFV and FFVI Video Games* that shipped with *[Final Fantasy Anthology](/source/Final_Fantasy_Anthology)* on October 5, 1999, along with tracks from *[Final Fantasy VI](/source/Final_Fantasy_VI)*.[5] The soundtrack was again released as part of the *Final Fantasy Finest Box* by Square Enix on March 28, 2007 under the catalog numbers *FFFB-0002-3* along with the OSTs of *IV* and *VI* after the game was ported to the [Game Boy Advance](/source/Game_Boy_Advance).[6][7]

The soundtrack album sold over 135,000 copies.[8] Critical opinion of the soundtrack was mixed. Some reviewers, such as Ben Schweitzer of RPGFan, found it to be of medium quality, saying it "suffer[ed] from occasional compositional problems" and noted that others refer to it as simply "in the middle" of the soundtracks of *IV* and *VI*, but was generally positive to the *Final Fantasy V*'s music in his conclusion. Schweitzer praised the "Main Theme of Final Fantasy V" ("Ahead on Our Way") as "a truly stirring piece of music" and "triumphant, hopeful, and yet almost longing at the same time", but stated that "Uematsu's compositional style hits a sort of early plateau here".[2] Other reviewers disagreed, with Jason Strohmaier of Soundtrack Central finding it to be an underrated album, while Jeremy Althouse of Soundtrack Central felt that it was on par with Uematsu's other works.[9]
