Thread: Famous classical pieces in Final Fantasy

    Question Famous classical pieces in Final Fantasy

    I have noticed that throughout the FF series - especially the older NES and SNES FFs - they have used some famous classical music either as a theme for an event or area, or integrated into one of the game's music themes.
    So far I've heard:

    Swan Lake by Tchaikowsky - FF2 when the Lamia lures Firion
    Habanera by Bizet - FF5 when the dancers in the pubs do their thing
    The dancer's theme in FF3 is also a popular classical piece though I can't recall its name.

    Has anyone identified any other classical pieces in the games?

    One-Winged Angel has lyrics that were taken from the medieval poetry on which Carl Orff based his Carmina Burana.

    That's all I can think of...
