Saori Kobayashi to Attend MAGFest 2017
By Solo Wing

Along with her AKANE band member Yumiko Takahashi, Panzer Dragoon Saga composer Saori Kobayashi will be performing at MAGFest 2017. MAGFest is a four day-long event dedicated to the appreciation of video game music and other aspects of gaming that takes place in National Harbor, Maryland. From their website:

This year’s guests from Japan are Saori Kobayashi and Yumiko Takahashi. Saori is an accomplished pianist who has composed music for Sega games since 1993. Her most notable work comes from the Panzer Dragoon series and Crimson Dragon, which features magical string melodies back by quick drum beats and ethnic flute melodies. She will be doing a special concert with Lauren Liebowitz from The Returners, Doug Perry, and The Triforce Quartet. This concert is only going to be held at MAGFest and is surely not one to miss!

Previously, Saori Kobayashi and Yumiko Takahashi did a live performance of Anu Orta Veniya together at BitSummit MMXIV.
