Hi everyone! I recently recorded this song to my channel. Nobody is going to see it because so many have played this song on youtube, but I think my performance distinguishes itself.
Your left hand needs to play more staccato at :21. Also, look at the dynamics in the sheet music. With those small adjustments, this will be extraordinary.
@khami231234 HE BETTER BE i've been saying it for years, perhaps we are biased because we associate the music with scenes from the game, with characters that have added depth to our own existence. But his music is phenomenal and undeniable. To me he's the greatest of all time.
The piano collections version is different from the OST version. I'd say the main difference is the inclusion of a swing beat (that's what I call it anyway)- where a standard pair of eighth notes is equal to a dotted eighth note+ a sixteenth note. (I am now trying to sound intelligent) The OST version was just in straight 4/4 time.
why does everyone here on youtube play it differrent from 2:20 to 2:22, the notes are different, its not moving that part an octave from its orginal form!
look harder, dl a torrent called, ffx collections. I got the collections from .. too many of the fantasy games its just a folder on my desktop. It has like FF7 and FFx collections. so its sick
You could find a torrent with Final Fantasy Piano collections sheet music scans, but Google is probably faster. Try final fantasy x piano collections sheet music.
Actually, I just did that, and got: mediafire [dot] com/?0btyjmn00ym
I'm not one to talk because I'm not a pianist and I realize this song is crazy-hard, but you could make the chords in the left hand at the beginning of the piece more staccato. That's how I heard it on the studio version of the Piano Collection CD. I know it's hard doing it while doing the very quick phrases in your right hand, but it makes the piece sounds so much lighter instead of heavy and stiff.
There's lots of pedal in the beginning part that InvertedRainbows is talking about. The sheets don't say anything about detached or staccato, so it's up to the performer. Yes, the version by Aki Kuroda is detached, and I actually think it gives it a quaint feel. Oh well.
Don't get me wrong with this comment, I thought that this was an awesome and well played song, good job, but I'm having a hard time comparing this version with this one:
for a long time i did too but theres a similarity between the besaid music in FFX with the part 0:55-1:13. It might take awhile to notice but its there
Just wondering, but I was looking for the sheet music for this, so I checked your profile, followed the link, but then I didn't get the right version, so would it be possible for you to send me the link to the sheet music?
yah really good, agree with oshadowdragon, i couldn't play this song a year ago and now i find it much easier, just had to get the hang of it, and i've been playing for about a year and a half now. I'm learning it right now, and this vid is a really good example. good job.
That's amazing. =) I love this song because it's just so beautiful, and you just played it in a way that just blew "beautiful" right out the door. You played stupendously. Bravo!
lol. well, it's honestly not that hard. you just hafta get the hang of it. however, playing it with expression, like calbee did, is much more difficult.
OMG! u juss were still for awhile and then outta no where your fingerz juss started moving light speed. that wuz incredible! i wuz like whoah wtf, kewl!
I'm aspiring to play Besaid like this haha. I'm really bad at sight reading and just started playing this one today haha. XD but this sounds really awesome! nice
I just realized that this is Besaid Island, but it's the piano version in the Final Fantasy X Piano Collections. If anyone wants the sheet music, you can ask me. (Hope you don't mind calbee ^-^ )
The song your probably thinking of for Besaid Island in the game is Suteki Da Ne. I was really confused with this as well. Both really nice songs though.
the way that you play amazed me its almost like you play with no problem! this is like way way better than sodaorat because this one is longer and its played more gracefully ^.^
Your playing inspired me to practice. I dunno, I simply love this song. When I watched you play I decided that I want to learn this song someday. This inspired me to practice, big time.
I thought I was listening to the cd lol. Which parts did/do you find hardest to play in this. I'm learning it right now and the intro section is easy but when I try to play all those LH arpeggios in the main theme It goes horribly wrong
really it isnt?! lol ive been playing the game and im like where the heck is this song i dont remember it playing anywhere. but anyways this guy is gooooddddd
Wow. Your really good man. But to be honest all of the besaid music on piano that I've heard don't really sound like it. But your still really good. 5/5.
Hey calbee.Did you notice that I told my classmates on how good on playing you were.They didn't care but I just had to tell them on how talented you were.Watched it and They LUUUUVED it.They're like "I wish I can play like him!"lols
Trying to review your performance on this.Just having some minor adjusments on the last 9 bars on the piece.WOW you play soo fast I can't even catch up. Sooon I'll be finished this piece in no time.Just have to watch your video's for more information.
wow..i stopped getting piano lessons after 2 years and started playing on my own..sometimes i wonder if i could've been better still having lessons today =\ i think i've been playing for almost 3 years now and i could play FFVII main theme, is that good?? and great job on this peice =D
SELF TAUGHT?! I've been playing piano for fun for around 2 or 3 years (not that much, still from time to time) and I can't play anything like this. Tell me what you did! : )
i play this at school and people are like wdf??
