Morrowind Main Theme Piano Cover (with sheet music)

[Msizzy1317]

I have actually met Jeremy Soule before. He wrote a song for my choir. I also got his autograph. He's very nice. :)

[Skacor01]

for some reason i can't download it from 4shared, can you upload it to mediafire or something?

[sh1ftelliott]

Could you reupload the sheet music? Megaupload got taken down, would you be able to upload on Mediafire or something similar?

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@sh1ftelliott Fixed, thanks for letting me know. Megaupload's been taking down all of my stuff recently.

[danisl17]

Reinstalling.....

[TheCorncore]

Brilliant.

[MrPRIME02]

What are the chords for the left hand? please :D

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@MrPRIME02 It's in the sheet music, but the chords go C minor, E-flat major, B-flat major, F minor. then it goes C minor, E-flat major, A-flat major, F minor. Then it C minor, E-flat major, B-flat major, F minor, and repeat. =)

[MrPRIME02]

@MisterPenguinMusic Thank You :)

[MrPRIME02]

@MisterPenguinMusic You should do a tutorial ^^ for people that cant read piano notes....please :D

[mem1o]

It's.

Beautiful.

[0nknees]

OMG I got goosebumps... well done!

[Crystal0Oxygen]

How do I tell what key this is in? I am fairly new to playing piano (mostly reading sheet music) and I haven't had any lessons whatsoever.

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@Crystal0Oxygen It's in C minor. You tell the key by looking at the accents on the sheet music.

[Crystal0Oxygen]

@MisterPenguinMusic Thanks for the reply! Phenomenal work btw! :)

[hadou31shakkahou]

@MisterPenguinMusic actually u can tell by the sharp and flat arrangements by the start of the bar.

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@hadou31shakkahou That's what I just said...

[Cowzilla15]

@MisterPenguinMusic Accents have to do with dynamics (volume). Accidentals (sharps and flats) are what you're thinking of. Not trying to be a wise-ass, just helping with clarification. I love your rendition of the song, by the way.

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@Cowzilla15 Ah, darnit. Well thanks for telling me, I fail at music terminology.

[AntoXe59]

@cozygirl47 my too

[TheImperfectTheory]

That's all I can say.

[TheImperfectTheory]

Thank you.

[Minecraftnl100]

Very Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Doublicon]

I love you guys! Bawwwwww!

[Gamocraft]

0:51 best part!

[TheTimaay]

morrowind is the best adventure game ever and forever the morrowind world is soo nice and the theme is sooo beautiful

[V3n9eanc3]

This is the only game where i can look past the outdated graphics. This really is a thing of beauty...

[NakedManX]

so beautiful.

[nicman248]

Thumps up if you almost cried at 0:52

[SteeN3R]

@nicman248 thats the best part about this music its so moving

[leavesofgrey]

How come you didn't play it the last time with the G# base? It was very good, but I just feel that's the most climactic point of the song.

[9gamegeek9]

shame its so short...

[TeamJayOnas]

Thank you so much for actually including the sheet music, I wish everyone would do that. Great music, keep it up!

[Skyfox94]

Jeremy Soul... this name should be said in one breath next to Hans Zimmer and Two Steps from Hell, very nice version love it

[Loksfox]

ur aweasome

[Akhulakhan]

its a V for vivec (respectively). the aphabet is deadric. the other symbols (top left) A for Almalexia and (top right) S for Sotha Sil, the 3 Gods of the Tribunal

[Nmb910]

THIS IS BY JEREMY SOULE TOO? Wow, I need to stalk his music.

I was already obsessed with dungeon siege *sob* D:

[Decogon]

Much as I loved Oblivion's theme and I love Skyrim's theme, this is still the best IMO

[kaiserkatt]

made me let out a tear... thinking back when that came out

[KungLaoTheSecond]

You should do a tutorial for this cover!

[1UnderKable]

I know im being stupid for not noticing this but morrowinds game cover has a hint for the logo for oblivion at the bottom of the triangle and skyrim in the middle.

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@1UnderKable Those aren't really hints... The dragon in the middle is the Empire's logo, and the character at the bottom of the triangle isn't Oblivion's logo.

[1UnderKable]

@MisterPenguinMusic Yeah ur right but the music is still awsome.

[Beriorn]

@1UnderKable There's more to it. The triangle in the middle has a letter in each of its corners: A, S and V, the letters of ALMSIVI, the Tribunal gods. Then there are the names of the six Great Houses in it: Dres at the top, Redoran and Hlaalu on the left, Indoril and Telvani on the right (the latter being a misspelling of Telvanni), and Dagoth at the bottom. Oblivion's box had this: For Lord Dagon forever reborn in blood and fire from the waters of Oblivion. I wonder what Skyrim's will be.

[MikeIvensky]

@MisterPenguinMusic Actually, it more or less is. That rune is O in whatever mystical language t is those games represent, and it is made to look like the gates. If you study the rune text in oblivion and find that actual word you'll see that rune as the first letter.

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@MikeIvensky I thought it was a different rune.

[GrayPathogen]

@MisterPenguinMusic

It is. While the Daedric "O" is similar to that one, the three runes in the corners of the triangle are the individual symbols of ALMSIVI.

[MisterPenguinMusic]

That's what I thought. Doesn't the one for Oblivion have a little dot in the middle?

[pointpurple]

@MisterPenguinMusic Indeed

@GrayPathogen Do they not represent the three great houses?

[pointpurple]

@pointpurple Bah, tired. Of course all the houses are already on there. Nevermind.

[DrGeisson]

@MisterPenguinMusic Like the one at the very bottom of the cover? Where there are 6 symbols it is the fourth one...

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@DrGeisson Yep, that's it.

[gorath105]

@1UnderKable Those are letters of the daedric alphabet. That one I believe stands for "V"

[Tezcatlipoca94]

@1UnderKable The cover of Morrowind actually refers to several things.The dragon is representing the Septim Dynasty and the Empire.3 daedric letters on the corners of the triangle are translated: A S V ; representing Almalexia,Sotha Sil and Vivec - the three demi-gods in Morrowind - respectively.And the small letters on the sides are translated into the six houses of Morrowind : DRES,INDORIL,REDORAN,HLAALU,TE­LVAN and DAGOTH.

PS:I havent played the game but I will play soon so sorry for mistakes.

[bhrmaximo]

@1UnderKable the simbol in the middle is the imperial dragon the simbol of the imperial empire. and the other one is the lether V in daedric alphabet ._. theres no reference to future games there

[jdfox37]

@1UnderKable The Oblivion symbol you are thinking of was the Daedric letter "O", for ... Oblivion, Im guessing.

[HazmatSuitUp]

@1UnderKable It represents the Avatar of Akatosh and the Oblivion symbol is just the Daedric rune for th letter 'O'

[Dentarthurdent54]

@1UnderKable Actually, that's the Daedric letter "vehk", the equivalent of 'v'. In case you were wondering, the one in the upper left or the triangle is 'a' and the upper right is 's'. And the word at the very bottom is "Dagoth".

[1UnderKable]

2 people were turned into slaves by the dark elves

[Wurbyfu]

Awesome! you should check out my cover and tell me what you think, yours is better in my opinion. but hey. it's still a cover of an amazing song. :)

[goodguys9]

I 'liked' this video, and that's huge for me. This cover is incredible, truly.

[TESFOREVER]

Truly beautiful, brings tears to my eyes!!!

TES and Bethesda Forever!!!

[GubbelsLetsPlay]

@two persons who dislike this vid, you have drink to many Skooma!

[jamanddave]

wow

[Sourdeed]

This is by far and away the best MW theme piano cover I have ever heard, and believe me when I say I've been listening to them for years and years. All the others just copy the music, but only yours manages to capture its spirit. It's a very sad, wistful sense of glory that has ended. Morrowind is filled with endings, the end of the Dwemer, the end of Dagoth Ur's dream of freeing Morrowind from Imperial occupation, and the end of the Tribunal. Your cover captures that mood perfectly.

[lordAnarax]

This cover is so beautiful.

[Jackob1993]

Atin's cover is much worse then your is. Your one is just pure and simple and thats what i love about it ;)

[Saudre]

Fine, i'll just delete the comment. YOU HAPPY NOW?

[MrSniperpwnage]

i think i just cried a little bit

[LastFatality09]

best morrowind version ever ^^

[explodingpuppy]

Two people are chinese babies who don't like being forced to play the piano with a whip.

[robertneville777]

When you die and go to heaven, this is what you hear.

[Andy32268]

i loved this theme music when i played the game.

[waffle858585]

speed this up. notice how it sounds so much like POTC? Yea...

[UpsetGoldfish]

Could you do a video of you playing this from a Top-Down view of your piano?

I can't read sheet music but i can generally learn by watching others. Also this is one of the most emotive covers I've heard. Absolutely fantastic.

[proGaimz]

2 people got killed by wolves.

[avend666]

How much I love this game

[bhayes3x]

This is the best Morrowing theme I've heard. Beautiful.

[therewerre]

This is really, really good. You are very skilled and should know that your playing sent just as many shivers down my spine as the first time I heard this song while playing Morrowind. And that is MANY shivers.

[Atin1337]

You're cover is so beautiful! I really like what you did with the left hand in the first part.

Thanks for the link, I also linked to your cover in my video. ;)

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@Atin1337 Thanks!

[Mcpowerpack]

this is my favourite version of the theme

[dawala1000]

morrowind was much bigger then oblivion was.there were so many side quests to do. morrowind will always be my favorite elder scrolls that is untill skyrim comes out then i will have to see which one is better . nicly done misterpenguinmusic , thank you .

[DagothJeff]

Gret job, screw the two Obliviontard douchebags who voted to admit that they're an asshole.

[Kopfstrudel]

Really nice job! Morrowind was my first foray into Tamriel, and Oblivion hasn't topped it's marvel and mystery for me personally. That and the intro theme was awesome, must have heard it a thousand times, and it never tires.

[27thgear]

@Kopfstrudel Oblivion was an awesome game but it just didn't have the feel of morrowind

[danielkol10]

Well i played tes 2 3 and 4 and damn when i hear this it makes me think how good it really is

[kylerweaver]

I always loved the Morrowind music, but your piano cover seriously brings tears to my eyes. This is beautiful.

[vidgin]

I like it =)

[Superfloor95]

Maybe you could use 8va (ottava) on the sheets?

Makes it a bit easier to read and play, when you're not that good with the piano.

[PleaseDieQuietly]

This was the most epic theme I'd ever heard, and still to this day the game puts me in a state of awe inspired bliss.

[Gengurke7]

@PleaseDieQuietly me too. this theme is just the best ive heard.

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@Saudre Far from it...

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@Saudre Ok first, you're over-reacting. Second, this comment will push your comment up to the top so that everyone will know you weren't serious. Happy?

[SenseiWuzi]

@Saudre Do you like turtles?

[lahomiesi]

@Saudre you are still annoying. Why so much cap's lock dude. U mad bro?

[Saudre]

@lahomiesi YEAH I MAD. Little bastards been filling my inbox since day 1.

[phoebe13mannion]

@MisterPenguinMusic you try then

[OnizukaBlues]

@Saudre Wtf's Morrowind? Go play it seriously, and listen to the actual theme song, while you're at it...or search it out on Youtube.

[tehx3n]

@Saudre doesn't the picture of the cover art that says The elder scrolls 3 Morrowind on it give a hint?

[Kalekemo]

@Saudre Morrowind came before Oblivion... The song itself is named "Nerevar Rising", after the player character in Morrowind who's referred to as the Nerevar

[RHCowboy]

@Kalekemo Nerevarine. Nerevar was the Chimer who lived during the 1st era and fought Dagoth Ur. The player is known either as the The Nerevarine or The Incarnate. The idea is that Nerevar's soul was channeled through the player but the player retains their own identity.

Sorry to nit pick. Everyone knows what you mean and it's mostly pointless to get all the names down. I'm just a huge fan of lore and mythology. It makes games that much more fun when you know why everything is happening.

[YPTV9]

@Saudre They share basic themes in the music (as can also be heard in the Skyrim trailer) but if you listen past the first few seconds (as I am sure you didn't) you can tell it's Morrowind.

[YPTV9]

@Saudre They share basic themes in the music (as can also be heard in the Skyrim trailer) but if you listen past the first few seconds (as I am sure you didn't) you can tell it's Morrowind.

[Saudre]

@Saudre I'm just trollin' y'all... I love Morrowind. Great piano cover.

[noobingtosurvive]

@Saudre oblivion theme starts a lil bit more "Epic"

[ArcticAssassin1]

@Saudre Oblivions comes from this one, and Skyrim comes from both

[ein987]

@Saudre The same tune has been used in Oblivion, but it originally appeared in Morrowind. It is going to appear in Skyrim as well, because it is the 'Elder Scrolls Theme' So to speak

[10oclockCurfew]

@Saudre you retard! they are similar but not the same! close, but not exactky

[Saiban56]

@Saudre learn the difference between oblivion and morrowind silly. Morrowind is way better thn oblivion with its ambiance, music, lvl system. Best Elder Scroll atm.

[KiiokoIzumiVocaloid]

Ваааа *зз* Великолепно

[HellXxBreakerx]

2 persons will be murdered by the dark brotherhood

[RolliMyster]

Absolutly Beutiful!!!!!!!

[AhHelpMonster]

1 person likes the oblivion remake of the song.

[chrisredfiud]

@AhHelpMonster I do :(

[XLmaoGenocideX]

It saddens me to see you only have 302 views on such a beautiful cover of this song. This is amazing.

[langhalsen]

FUCKING MORROWIND, best stuff ever.

[TheBloodSkaal]

this brings back good times like the time i got killed by a Cliff Racer, and the other time I got the boots of blinding speed, and the time i found the Mudcrab merchant. goood times... good times...

[HalfLifeHalfDead]

@TheBloodSkaal Haha, I thought those boots are bugged, sort of missed the "blinding" part. And killed the crab on sight, I mean, how am I supposed to know he won't attack me, he was in the middle of the fucking wilderness and I wasn't keen on letting him attack first since I was a mage :D. Kept the Scamp Creeper alive though, my main source of income... Ahh, good times indeed. :)

[zaldir1]

Great Cover! :D

And Congrats on the GameInformer Post by the way! :)

[synthemyth40]

How can you even contemplate disliking this??

[WatersEternal]

Love it!

[lumpichu]

Too free tempo in the first half for my taste, but still nice :)

[TheInkfilms]

i love everything from elderscrolls



[BrotherBearGer]

1 Person tried to wear the Hammer without the glove.

[SL1DEmemphis]

[BrotherBearGer]

[ToaOnichu]

@BrotherBearGer Make that two (and no, I am not that second guy).

[TheAlceaos]

@BrotherBearGer Best Reference...EVER!!!

[BrotherBearGer]

@TheAlceaos Thx :D

[TheAlceaos]

@BrotherBearGer Unfortunately, 2 people have now failed the trials of the Nererevine by not putting on the Wraithgard before holding Sunder and Keening.

[Haloofme]

@BrotherBearGer i CAN wear the hammer without the glove xD

[Wizediablo]

yes very

[red2seata]

so beautiful...

[27thgear]

this makes me wish I hadnt sold my piano :(

[jason101078]

Nicely done rendition of an enchanting theme.

[aubreysapp]

you should post a tutorial vid if it's not to much trouble. :)

[MisterPenguinMusic]

@aubreysapp I'm at least writing the sheet music. Not sure about a tutorial.

[Der0zer0]

@MisterPenguinMusic This is beautiful :')

I'd really appreciate if you wrote the sheet music.

[Saradidis]

1 person needs to be thown to Oblivion for ever!

[RolliMyster]

@Saradidis Apperently another person is going to share that very same fate.

[Seti182]

It sounds fantastic. I must learn how to play it, myself.
