The scene featured a lengthy and bold memorization minigame as well as a score comprised of three of arguably the best Final Fantasy tunes ever composed, including a voice-like synth track to give a 16 bit interpretation of the vocal aspects of the opera. On top of being completely and totally innovative for the time on almost all levels, this sequence also served as, in my opinion, quite possibly the strongest and most well done character developmental medium in video games as we know them.
