Lara plays Secret of the Forest from Chrono Trigger (Zohar) on piano

[juantrevor]

A perfect melody played by a perfect woman.

[kairon156]

very lovely melody. keep uploading for us. :)

[shakesquire7]

This is so incredibly relaxing.

[MattTChristmas]

when i was 14 i used to just let the game sit when in the forest so i could listen to the music while writing or doing whatever. now there's youtube, with amazing musicians like yourself to bring the nostalgia back in amazing ways! :)

[MrJobi1]

Oh... was it cold this day?

[TheSchaef]

This is great, I love Zohar's arrangements for CT

[LorenceLinzWrightwoo]

one of my favorite games of all time, had great music glad to see you do so many from it

[alrigh7]

my cat and I enjoyed yer playing. visions of all the different chrono trigger characters flashed before my eyes in different smug poses. may i please borrow this sheet music? - alrigh7@yahoo.com

cheers

[DyramBlade]

@alrigh7 If she lets you borrow it, just make sure you give it back.

[jajison]

I love the hat.

[TheShiroShini]

this song brings me peace to my soul.

[jgraham6636]

better question, where can i get those birds :D i need to grow an afro so i can get a chocobo chick :\

[dlbiggs89]

...the birds actually kind of add that "forest" touch to it!

[box1234544455]

your beautiful :O and so is your playing

[WalysonBorges]

I see you really like Chrono Trigger. I love you even more now.

[advancedpillow]

they REALLY don't make video game soundtracks like they used to. graphics have gotten better, but sound, not so much. great job!

[sirigod]

FINALLY! A gamer with boobs that totally isn't a dude!

[Kijekatana]

...I'm taking up piano now.

[TheLaloChannel]

1 dislike? That person must be mad!

[msleone901]

Of all game composers I probably think Mitsuda is the best because of the way his music settles with you and how each song evokes a positive memory.

This song however I hold most dear, thank you for covering it Lara!

[TheShiroShini]

Because you're playing yourself, demonstrates charisma (GOOGLE TRADUTOR)

GREETING FROM BRAZIL o/

[EatPieYes]

The goosebumps!

[Tangential101]

It's a cute hat.

[PhillieJones]

Where can i get the sheet music of this song??

[lara6683]

@PhillieJones What's your email? Inbox me on yt

[PhillieJones]

@lara6683 philipuhl@gmx.de thank you!!!

[Stratopeter87]

It's my favourite song from CT and I think one of the most beautiful RPG tunes ever. And you play it with so much intimacy and delicateness. Love it! (wish there was a bassist on this one though, love the bass in the original piece ;) )

[mikemonkey69]

have you thought about doing the decisive battle from final fantasy 6 or 3 as its know in the u.s.a.?

[thepostman4435]

huzzah to Zorah for the wonderful arrangement and huzzahs to you for playing it so well! Chrono Trigger has some of the best music video games have ever seen. Glad to see it's appreciated

[MrAngelito43087]

This song puts me to sleep. You play it really good.

[Lavashield]

this is pretty much the best thing ever

[sauxeda]

Another great song turned into a masterpiece. Keep playing, you're a great artist!

[thor25521]

can you do magus theme

[wrmaldonado]

Thank you very much for posting this. It's an awesome piano remix! You look really young, I mean I was in 7th grade when Chrono Trigger came out in 1995, but even then I didn't play it till 8th grade. Have you played Chrono Trigger?

[lara6683]

@wrmaldonado Yeah, but I only played it a few years ago :)

[AyesThatsme]

amazing, only 6000 views, how sad.

[SmittyTheWorld]

can i have your hat?

[Javi621]

This is me melting into a puddle. *.........*

Simply amazing!

[UnoStudios]

thank you for giving a wonderful rendition to an incredible song, its one of those that stays in your heart forever

[PunkyKrilin]

It's wouuw ! This song and wind scene are my favorite in CTrigger

And ou have all the references I need. Mainly alex kidds tutu tulut. Thanks :D

If you do "jumping flash2" world 1-2. You'll send me directly on the moon. And i make a beautifull portrait of you in a dilirious cosplay if you're interested

[SmittyTheWorld]

nice curtains :D

[princevaliant]

I suggest you wear green and dress up as an wlf, you will look mysterious and of cos such beauty of yours would certainly enchant further on us audience.

[ShadowofLocke]

I like it-but here's one to split screen/add strings for SURE. That's what I think people are 'missing.' I for one, find a kindred spirit in your playing. Sigh, those days have passed, extinguishing the torches lighting the path back to my musical days. Sigh.

[karagz]

You rock but as long as Merton exists on youtube

[Icaro5959]

*-*

[darkpaladinZX]

well i did like almost all your performances, but this in particular doesnt fit so well... idk why, maybe the arrangement is that diferent. keep improving

[JULIOCESAROB1]

me gusta mucho to sombrero. se te ve bonito

[jimmygnome9]

I love Zohar's arrangement, and you did an excellent job preforming it. Keep up the good work!

[8Amaterasu8]

Feel so relaxed...

[pemdas010]

dom kennedy would love this!

[NCDropkickSquad]

ALJKSDNASKLJDNASKJDNASD.

Sorry, just spammed my homerow in enjoyment from realizing you did a few CT songs!

Yessssssssssss. Nostalgia. FTW. You. FTW. brbflyingtosydneytopropose.

[FHHeinz]

Forrest is one of the best songs from the soundtrack. the cover version from the brink of time is one of my favorites too. this piano arrangement is really nice.

[Zeffyrus]

WOW... Never imagined that the music from Chrono Trigger could get more beatiful... You did a fantastic job there! *__* Kisses from Brazil! o/

[Dinuhimself]

Good performance! Its time for you to show us some of your original music :p

[nightmaredude456]

Dammit, you really know how to evoke emotion with your pieces. I love the melancholy throughout this one.

[renatodpmesquita]

CHRONOOOO!!!

You could play Marle someday at a live-action movie. ;D

[mickers131]

like.

[IDiiPSET]

im in awe because if i ever wanted to learn piano video game music is the first thing i would experiment with Final fantasy chrono trigger both have amazing soundtracks but keep it up your dope as fuck with they keys my friend TEACH ME HOW TO PIANO :)

[grivs]

oh Lara i can listen to you everyday and hope someday i will hear you playing live , one love girl

[daigoro789]

not that technically difficult she says!

'beast' i say!!!

love the motion that you put into this - a really considered and well played interpretation! kudos!

[Zvalgryn]

This reminded me of some music also from Donkey Kong Country 1. you should do some Donkey Kong pieces, i think they would be great.

[TheTrickerL]

Also, about the part starting at 1:30... my piano teacher thought I should play the right hand piano/pianissimo, and let the left hand come out more. Not saying it's better that way, but you might want to try it, because I really liked it. The melody of the LH has a lot of feeling :D

[TheTrickerL]

Ah, you re-recorded it! I like your version. I think the additions/alterations are in great taste :)

I really like your piano and the recording quality is great. I like the silent left hand at 2:22 (also handy for page turning lol). What you did instead of the second cadenza was nice too.

In my opinion, you could've slowed down at the end a little.

[Zeuts85]

Will you marry me?

[lara6683]

@Zeuts85 yep.

[unnamed50]

@lara6683 dami was gonna ask that lol

[twobitmage]

@lara6683 NOO! I was five months too late D:

[HisDivineShadow245]

@lara6683 Nice comeback. =)

[kidwarbuck]

This one is my favorite (:o) Had to listen to it again.

[MrTrojis]

wow i just found out about you by searching for card captor sakura on violin and here you are performing zohar's secret of the forest arrangement lol

very nice job it sounds beautiful im happy theres another person on youtube with high quality violin and piano game music. makes me sad zohar doesn't post on youtube anymore :(

[Coreplo]

That's beautiful. I can't stop listening. And I love that beanie too :)

[Kollynator]

The Hat :)

[pravusprime]

Amazing job. As usual it seems after listening to so many of your vids. I like your slower tempo to allow for a deeper emotional resonance.

[fgsguedes]

Looks like you love Chrono Trigger

A really good game and an awesome sound track, I really love both

[Buggeh]

Lara, me and my friends have been linking your videos for like 2 hours straight now, listening to almost every one

Can I do some requests? :3

Secret of Mana - Star of Darkness (piano)

Secret of Mana - Prophecy (violin)

Anything Metroid would be awesome as well, though I don't know if the style lends itself to your instruments that well

Maybe some Final Fantasy 6/7 ?

Looking forward to your next videos!

[plasmathunderdx]

your hat is so cute ^^

[HarZens]

You look so cute with that beanie.

I'm in love with your videos! Oh, and I'm in love with you too.

I'd love you even more if you'd make more Castlevania songs, specially SotN ones <3

[Lavashield]

i think this is one of the best recordings you've posted.

[benetluxe91]

PLEASE LARA!! Next one Chrono sewers them (duno its name) !! The best song of the whole game to me! Please! and it sounds like a real challenge... even for you! Please i really want to play it!

[JHung7200]

all these chrono trigger songs made me go back and play the game again lol

[RottenHedge]

Your very pretty

the hate enhances that

Winter?

[MTonyD]

i like your beanie, it gives you twice the cuteness :D

[florianizer]

Chrono Cross!

[ralgha]

Wow, there's so much emotion in this arrangement. It seems more melancholy and laid back. But there's more to it than that. It's beautiful. Thank you.

[lara6683]

@ralgha There's a lot behind this arrangement. While it's not technically difficult, you really have to choose an appropriate tempo, and consider your musical intentions...

[omegabelmont]

@lara6683 i love the chrono trigger songs :3

[omegabelmont]

@lara6683 i love the chrono trigger songs :3

but when you play it is better ^^

[tranquilitygone]

Easily one of my favorite songs from Chrono Trigger. Well played. Thank you Lara

[werewarwolf]

I love the way she can play all the chrono trigger songs...i want a reply from her soon though! i would like to here her play Mount Gagazat off Final Fantasy 10 ^.^

[davidomgwork]

I like your hat. That is all, oh wait no it's not. You don't mind if I post this on the page right?

[lara6683]

@davidomgwork Post wherever you like :) Also, my beanie seems to be getting attention :) It's winter, people!

[PS3slimComparison]

@lara6683 Everything is backwards in Australia. Seasons. Light switches :P

[MystikX]

@PS3slimComparison The way the toilet flushes.

[TheShremco]

@lara6683 winter in Australia. Summer almost everywhere else, like here in the US. :)

[Oudaen]

@lara6683 Heh, not in Europe, it's turning summer around here!

Anyways, really great played, I love Chrono Trigger, and this is one of my favs. <3

[benetluxe91]

@lara6683 i found it "Underground sewers" it's called! Please lara! for your biggest fan!

[CeresBimbo]

@lara6683 Not here it isn't! Almost summer for us, that hat would be causing a sweat downpour for me.

[danytoon]

@lara6683 WInter? Where are you from?

[Evilocity]

Nice hat!
