| | Symphonic poem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Music based on extra-musical sources is often known as programme music, while music which has no other associations is known as absolute music. | | | There are also a number of one-movement works not written for orchestra, but for some chamber ensemble or solo instrument, based on some extra-musical source. | | | From the above one can understand that the freedom of the genre of the symphonic poem allows other appellations, such as "musical picture," "overture," "fantasy," etc. |

| | Kimba The White Lion -- The Symphonic Poem |
| | Tomita's symphonic poem was recorded and issued on LP in Japan. | | | In 1967, Isao Tomita, the composer responsible for all the beautiful music heard in the original Kimba The White Lion, reworked his music into a 50-minute "symphonic poem". | | | So, music that was written originally to enhance visual story-telling then became the story teller. |

| | RPGFan Soundtracks - Symphonic Poem Dragon Slayer ~ The Legend of Heroes |
| | All in all, Dragon Slayer Symphonic Poem is a wonderful arrangement of wonderful melodies that any fan of symphonic music will enjoy. | | | The name of the album had always intrigued me (Symphonic Poem indeed sounds romantic), but perhaps it was when I learned that Tamiya Terashima (Ys Symphony '95, Ys V Orchestra Version, Legend of Heroes IV Electric Orchestra) arranged the music that I knew I absolutely had to have it. | | | I feel that too many pieces of music lose their overall feel in the transition from synth to real instruments, and that synth arrangements bring out the best characteristics in the music. |

Both of these "Symphonic Poem" albums were created by Tamiya Terashima, who also went on to make the Legend of Heroes III and IV "electric orchestra" albums, which were decent. | | | But the variations are not as "varied" as one would hope: in particular, tracks 5 and 6 sound nearly identical, except they each have a slightly different ending ten seconds. | | | Note: this is not an arranged album for Legend of Heroes II. |

| | The symphonic poem’s exploitation of harmony and instrumental color for expressive purposes led to innovations in harmonic progressions and in the uses and combinations of instruments. | | | In contrast to the ideal form of 18th-century music, based on a purely musical sequence of exposition, development, and recapitulation, the form of the symphonic poem is derived from the character or “plot” of the extramusical program. | | | In the 20th century fewer symphonic poems were written, as composers placed new emphasis on concise, abstract musical forms and smaller instrumental ensembles. |
