So a while ago there was a Kickstarter to make a Chrono Cross Piano collection album

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wa ... collection

Created to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the release of Chrono Cross in November 1999 (Japan) and August 2000 (USA), Across the Worlds is an arrangement album licensed by the Japanese music right-holders Septima Ley and Procyon Studio (Yasunori Mitsuda's company)*! This is a very special opportunity for us to realize our dream of having a high-class piano solo album featuring the amazing music from the game, designed and produced with some of the best Japanese video game artists!

A first-class role-playing game released on PlayStation in 1999, Chrono Cross is the follow-up to the highly-acclaimed Chrono Trigger, released in 1995 on SNES. The story takes players to a magnificent journey through different worlds and eras, featuring a large and colorful cast of characters. Its music, entirely composed and arranged by Yasunori Mitsuda, is widely regarded as one the best video game soundtracks of all time!

It's now available on Spotify and it's not bad.

For all of Chrono Cross's faults, it's got one of the best OSTs from that era.

The Girl Who Stole the Stars is my personal favorite from this rendition.
