Musique pour la tristesse de Xion [Kingdom Hearts 358/2]

[cem1891]

great job on this. the cosplayish approach to the peformance adds to an enjoyable video, the music shines, congrats and thanks for sharing your talent

[cem1891]

@cem1891 i'll add don't worry about a few missed notes or as i like to call them performers editorial nonchord tones lol. what's more important is that you play it musically and as an audience we come away having felt the emtion you and the composer wanted to bring across from the score. in this digital age we're too precoccupied with digital perforection, seldomly outside of the studio with multiple takes does this occur. even the super stars of piano will hit a bauble here there when live

[silentKeys20]

This is totally gorgeous.

[XavierK018]

Would you say it's easier to play if you have bigger hands and/or longer finger. Mine are kind of short, so usually can't do a 2-note chord that's like C-to-D(an octave higher). I've been able to adequately play Saber's Edge from FF XIII, but I'm wondering if finger length matters.

[GermanSeabass]

@XavierK018 Size matters, but it's not the only important thing. There's definitely ways around it. Not everyone's blessed with Rachmaninoff's hands...

If you're having trouble reaching, you can always arpeggiate it--play the bottom note first, and then reach/jump to the second note. That usually works for me if I'm trying to reach a 10+ chord.

Good luck!

[VittleVoom]

Took me awhile to figure out you're wearing an Organization hoodie

[kalvin126]

mistake at 2:25 lol

[GermanSeabass]

@BigMarioFan100 Nope; never been to Canada. Going to Yaoi-con in SF this weekend though.

[dissonantchord]

Beautiful. Well played.

I wish I had fingers like yours LOL

[OtakuKingdom]

I didn'd notice the mistakes. Now send me all your cookies.

Btw, awesome but... the volume... it's a little bit low D:

[nnyleldnav]

beautifully played! have you any tips on playing this piece? i struggle w/ the sextuplets!

[megmmy]

☆5 !!!

[6161Dante]

im a techno type of guy but when i hear your music i fall deep in it. and i really enjoyed hearing it every time so i say thank you 

[RobertBarnes2010]

I can really see you improving with every video.

[LightofHope64]

Sweet! My friends and I just went to a convention yesterday in Kingdom Hearts cosplay. I was Roxas and my friends were Xion and Axel. :) You still play as beautifully as ever. I'm so glad you have new recording equipment! :D

[ZoromeLV]

^_^ Aah~ really made my day to hear this. So nice. Keep it up, I miss your videos. :)

[ushirokatsushi]

beautiful!

[sorkurie321]

So boss! Not only did you a play a good song from a Great game you even Cosplayed as an organization member!

[spoinkchick93]

Also this makes me feel so many emotions alskdgjhalkgj

[spoinkchick93]

It took me half the video to figure out that you were wearing an organization coat. I almost squeaked.

[animeandanimals]

music with matching cosplay = AWSOME

[Analiketika411]

AWESOME JOB :D:D:D

[Rxypup]

NOEW I REMEMBER!

It was like a mix between I believe the Dearly Beloved version from the end of Birth by Sleep and Xion's theme (either battle music, or original).

[Rxypup]

I know I can recongnize this melody, and no not from the Xion remixes and orignals I already heard, but...it was...melodious and stunning...

Maybe it was a piano along with another instrument or more?

I'll be watching for more of your songs to add to my playlist! :)

[SmileyEvilFace]

Wow. You are phenomenal. I adored this. Such great playing, I nearly cried. By the way, Organization XIII cloak? :D Heck yes!

[kairistwin]

ORGANISATION CLOAK???

I WANT ONE!!!

Eh-hem...

Only heard this particular track for the first time a few days ago, but I find it enchanting... Lovely playing :)

[0Darkaros]

Is the Org. cloak your wearing in this vid the same one as that old-ish Dearly Beloved video? The one with the glitchy green screen? xD. Nice to see you back, love the KH music!

[AbigailCompositions]

It has really helped me. And I actually enjoy doing it. :)

[VenxAqua]

You go to Fanime!?

[GermanSeabass]

@VenxAqua Of course. Who in the bay area doesn't?

[ClarinetX1]

XION!!



[LadyPirate421]

Ur totally wearing a KH costume arent u....? xDD <3

[supershigi]

Fantastic, Sebastian!  This seems like a very difficult piece, but you played it beautifully. And did you make that cloak yourself? Super cool^^

[keybladeboy]

Are you seriously wearing an Org XIII cloak?

...AWESOME.

Also I've been waiting for this ever since I heard it in the game and on the album and now I want your rendition of her boss theme pretty please.

[awesomeinmyworld]

Psssssh what mistakes? :)

I love the Org XIII cloak

[starfire139]

I heard mistakes! I think 7. Most of them were around 3:20 or something.

But I only noticed them because I've listened to the song...*checks iTunes* around 90 times. Lol.

Can I still get a cookie? I like cookies. I'll give you kudos in exchange. :D

[dmf89]

music sheets?!

how hard would you say this song is? like which other?

[DavidRussell323]

This is fantastic! You truly do "feel" every note!

[PianoMan53100]

Beautiful!!!

[Ruthlessvalor]

GermanSeabass uploaded a video today, gonna be a good day.

[KHFREAK999]

@Ruthlessvalor fancy meeting you here my old friend :-D And as usual, he did an awesome job :-) His true power is not in his skills (both technic and interpretation) but in the inspiration he brings to other pianists...

[Rubberflippers]

I never knew you sew! Nice organization 13 cosplay, btw. Are you planning to ever go to an anime con?

[GermanSeabass]

@Rubberflippers I regularly attend Fanime and a few other cons in California.

[Rubberflippers]

@GermanSeabass Well, it's still better than not attending at all :)

[diaXgregory]

not much more to be said. absolutely beautiful. well done.

[Zexion04]

Yeaaah the fish is back :D and what a piece... Seriously good job ! can't wait for what's next !

[RavenKavanagh]

Oh, German Seabass, you are so fabulous and awesome and talented <3. And an orgy coat too. <3

[MegaLamb]

Absolutely amazing! This is the style of music that attracted me to your channel a couple of years ago :) - Great to have you back :D

[Spacemanspiffe]

Im working on learning this right now, are there any tips you could give me?

[brianbelize]

@Spacemanspiffe I'd like to know to same, even though it's gonna take me a couple of years before I even start learning it, I'd still like a few tips for when I do :D

[sasorideidarart]

Sounds so beautiful~

[dualwieldroxas358]

Good job. BTW, What exactly is the Piano Collections, a soundtrack?

[ObjectionManiac13]

@dualwieldroxas358 Well its a CD compilation created by Yoko shimomura (well to be exact are Piano Version of Some KH musics , of course some were modificated from the original version and there are 2 different CD´s) one is Piano Collections Kingdom Hearts and the other is Kingdom Hearts Piano Collections Field & Battle Well i hope this helps you

[AdventurousRanch]

I love this. IT IS TOO AMAZING! And I really did not notice any errors.... (:

[clarkispotamia]

This. Is. Amazing.

[TechCloud15]

This is going straight to my Kingdom Hearts playlist. Good job!

[Xarocs13]

^_^ This was beautiful sir. I think Xion's theme is one of my favorites, and you have reminded me of why i do. You are an excellent pianist sir. keep up the good work.

[AnJiTzU]

so, Xion can play her own theme. Amazing

[Xsami040X]

j'adord



[JohnPlz84]

good

[AbigailCompositions]

You play so beautifully. Did you do the Hanon book? Because you have such great agility it would probably blow if you hadn't. 

[GermanSeabass]

@AbigailCompositions Nope, haven't heard of the Hanon book - till now. Good suggestion though; I'm sure it'll help me improve a bit :)

[starfire139]

@GermanSeabass *gasp* You've never heard of the Hanon book? It's kind of amazing how he came up with so many ways to do exercises...

[XiaoMeiYin]

beautiful!! i only heard one slight part where i wasn't sure if it was supposed to go that way but it wasn't annoying or anything. this is AWESOME. congratulations on your new investment!! your playing deserves the best equipment and then double it U_U

[wxXFrozenflameXxw]

[UprisingGrand]

[frododoingo987]

echt super! glaub dir sofort, dass du mehrere monate dran gesessen hast...besten gruß

[lipwen94]

The world really needs musician like GermanSeabass, Kyle Landry, Zorsy, Verdegrand, Josh Chiu and Sherry Kim rather than Justin Bieber...

[rikutheshadow]

@lipwen94 you are right, but you forgot one of the best: marasy8 :)

[lipwen94]

@rikutheshadow Really? I dunno haven't seen that channel yet... I'll check it out some time later =)

[rikutheshadow]

Hey, you are back :)

[joshi3joshi]

[GermanSeabass]

@joshi3joshi We totally do! And yep, HD rocks my world.

[TheHEARTSofLIGHT]

I look in my subscription box, I see "Musique pour la tristesse de Xion"

:D

I see the username GermanSeabass under it

8D Did he really?! OMG REALLY?!?!

Watched

:'D He did!

[Gesch1012]

There is just one word for such a video: EPIC!

[26564az]

You are so talent full Sebastian you can even do the Kingdom Heart song.:)

[TheTrueShadowphoenix]

Wtf...Amazing *slightly envious*

[disneydina]

Hi Sebastian,

Beatifull, as always,thank you for uploading. I noticed that you often upload a new video at times when I need extra comfort, or confidence. I don't know how you manage to do that, but keep doing that if you can, will you ? :) I want to thank you for that with all of my heart. It helped me to keep my sanity through the last two years. Love, Nadine

[expiraI]

kh clothes rlz!! :D

[MrFadiPianist]

Amazing!

[Beserk020]

Amazing talent!! Keep doing these please!

[PhanRazak]

I Envy you so much

[lost2darkness]

I definitely was about to go to sleep, checked my twitter feed, and saw you updated <3 Had to watch before I go to bed.

[ochristi]

Yay yay. =)

[HolyShetKadijahh]

Pausing the video before I watch it.

See's title.

"No he didn't :O "

I most certainly must watch this.

[GermanSeabass]

@HolyShetKadijahh Oh yes he did!

[gongwongton]

I've been waiting so long for another amazing song like this! Love it!

[8Amaterasu8]

Nice vid, and playing - love KH =D

Red velvet + piano always looks amazing as well =)

[TwilightPianist]

Is that a Org XIII cloak your wearing? btw only noticed one error so GJ

[GermanSeabass]

@TwilightPianist Correct!

[CleverDjembe]

@TwilightPianist

thumbs down for talking about errors like you're some mofucking god who's above them. GTFO

[TwilightPianist]

@CleverDjembe I never said i was above him. I admit I'm no where near as good, but as a musician, you notice little details like that and I just figured I'd point out the only ONE I heard. Now if your done trolling then have a good day.

[CleverDjembe]

@TwilightPianist

You can't see how negative that is?

The whole performance is perfect except for 1 mistake and you CHOOSE to point THAT out?! It's good that you're not talking to me face to face, because you would get hurt pretty bad right now.

Learn some respect.

[GermanSeabass]

@CleverDjembe Thanks, that's enough. I appreciate the support, but I really don't care when people openly discuss errors. No-one, save Kyle Landry, Verdegrad, and a few others, are flawless pianists.

Can we just enjoy enjoy the music, please, instead of launching a series of ill-placed personal attacks? Thanks.

[Axen901]

@CleverDjembe stop nagging others and be glad something actually got uploaded.

[TwilightPianist]

@CleverDjembe Respect would be not trolling on his video, if you wish to argue just take it to pm. Sorry for the spam GS.

[aswaxsora]

Ajwdqwu.

Ahem. Sorry. Just...half died. It's been so long since you've done a KH track. So...you're back for good, right? Maybe you'll do the KH Medley 3 soon with Sinister Shadows. :D

I've missed you a lot. Can't wait to see more from you.

[GermanSeabass]

@aswaxsora Woo! I'm back, for a bit. If I find enough time :)

[SaladBlackOpsMKWii]

@GermanSeabass GOOD. :D

[aswaxsora]

@GermanSeabass :D Take all the time in the world. I've waited this long.

[aswaxsora]

@GermanSeabass :D Take all the time in the world.

[SaladBlackOpsMKWii]

beautiful ^_^ More.. please..
