In the third and final installment of this 3-part series on the music of Final Fantasy VI, I give a full run down of the 15-minute epic that is the game's final boss theme, Dancing Mad. There are loads of strong composition choices to study in this piece, and more than a few references to other tunes from the game's soundtrack, so taking it apart and analyzing was a ton of fun. Hope you enjoy!
