So, you're looking for more Kajiura composition?
Allow me to give you some recommendation then. Since for me this is not just a thread for Kalafina but all of Kajiura works.

Spoiler:

If soundtracks, try these:

• Fate/Zero (Fate/Zero Original Soundtrack I & II)
• Kara no Kyoukai (the Garden of sinners -Gekijouban "Kara no Kyoukai" Ongakushuu-)
• Pandora Hearts (Pandora Hearts Original Soundtrack 1 & 2)
• Tsubasa Chronicle (Tsubasa Chronicle Future Soundscape I, II, III, IV)
• NOIR (NOIR ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK I & II)
• The Works for Soundtrack
• Some of .hack soundtracks

Also, try other songs composed by her and her album as well:

• FICTION II (This is superb )
• Everlasting Songs (This is the release that Kajiura fan must listen)
• 2008-2010 The BEST of Yuki Kajiura LIVE (Collection of lives, really nice)

There are some songs that very memorable for me, for example:

• canta per me - from Noir soundtracks
• Mezame - from Mai Hime soundtracks
• In the land of twilight, under the moon - from Tsubasa Chronicle soundtracks
• the world, vanity & Liminality - from .hack series soundtracks
• a song of storm and fire - from Tsubasa Chronicle soundtracks
• Akatsuki no Kuruma - song from FJ YUUKA
• stone cold - song from FictionJunction
• Calling - song from Oda Kaori a.k.a FJ KAORI
• Sora wa Takaku, Kaze wa Utau - song from Haruna Luna

Oh, please watch this too, for your delight~



For me, this is one of the best performance from them, really.
The whole concert is worth watching too.

Quite a list
I'm so excited when anyone new is into Kajiura, I hope you like it.

Wow, thanks!! I've listened to the following already:
FictionJunction Yuuka - Akatsuki no Kuruma (love that song! I love how it's slightly folk)
Everlasting Songs (was very, very good! My favorite songs: 星屑, 花守の丘, 宝石 on first listen. But all of them were at least listenable. I'll definitely listen all the way through in one listen sometime and see what I love)
"In the land of twilight, under the moon" was good, the live was a little odd because it seemed like a sad song, yet near the end it was almost like some weird dance party xD with fist bumping everywhere! So much different from Kalafina's Red Moon performances, where they look so epic yet sorrowful.

I don't know why, but I only like Yuuka's voice in Akatsuki no Kuruma...in Everlasting Songs, it's too nasally. And all her other songs I'm hearing it's just not that pleasant for some reason. It's not bad by any means, but it's one of those voices I can only endure in certain songs or in small doses.

By the way, I also love Hikari no Senritsu Moonfesta's beginning is what made me almost hate it. It sounded too...I don't know, childish? But the chorus is fantastic!

I'll try your recommended songs first, and then find the soundtracks and let you know what I think of those!
