In general, I've liked Russell's arrangements very much, and his more recent submissions to OCR have only gotten better and better. This one didn't sit as well with me, likely because I haven't actually played the game that the music comes from. I think this overture was a little too busy for my taste; I would have appreciated a slower more lyric passage to break up the faster themes. That said, the horns were very convincing, and I'm looking forward to hearing what else Russell can do with them.
