 In contrast to the enthusiastic praises of other critics, Kyle Miller of RPGFan felt that many of the pieces were "disorganized and ineptly arranged", and that the arrangements had a lack of enthusiasm. He reserved praise only for the fanfare and the Lost Odyssey suite. Benjamin Schmädig of the German site 4Players.de, while not having as extreme a reaction as Miller, felt that some of the arrangements lacked the passion in the arrangements as others, noting "On Windy Meadows", "Main Theme and Save the World", and "Spreading Your Wings" as serviceable pieces that did not rise above the source material, and felt that the Lost Odyssey suite was lacking a finale and neglected the choir. Unlike Miller, however, he felt that the other pieces were outstanding, especially the Final Fantasy concerto and "Silent Light". He also praised the concert's use of Uematsu's less-often arranged pieces, but dismissed the efforts of the concert's moderator as childish.
