Thank you all.
Let me explain a bit about Stardew Valley project and Project G.
VGM Classics originally started these projects without crowdfunding in mind. As it was stated on the kickstarter page, unfortunately the recording session in mid March was cut short because of the virus crisis (I was managed to leave Hungary before the flights in-and-out were completely canceled.). The Stardew Valley project was especially affected, and we were only able to record about 25-28min of music, and this was much shorter than we planned. We discussed the situation with the creator of the game, and we decided to go for the crowdfunding direction whether or not we release the album as is, or try to finish the originally planned amount of music.

We were able to record about 55min of "Project G." We discussed the situation with the right holder, and they decided to release the album as it is. They also wish us to wait until about mid May-ish so that they can announce this recording with their other projects.

The main reasons that VGMC did not go for the crowdfunding originally was that the right holders of the two projects were fine for VGMC to represent the arrangements, and release/sell the scores/parts for public performances and study, like "normal" concert music. The orchestras around the world could perform the suites as they were "normal" concert symphonic works. So, your local orchestra can perform it, if they wish to.
