Symphonic Fantasies - Kingdom Hearts medley part 2/2

[juointim1991]

Who is the pianist?

[ZurzangX]

Kingdom Hearts....it digs deep down the heart....turns darkness to light...to emerge what you are truly inside. Is Kingdom Hearts a big part of you as it is to me?

[Leonlopezanto]

3:10 fallo garrafal

[MrChrisRawr]

were's Fight to the death? :c

[12431265]

i click this and the first related video to pop up is KH 3D trailer the 8 minute trailer lol

[Eternaldarkness3166]

It's so hard to not understand why the crowd just isin't bursting into applause for how amazing this is played. I feel like I'm in the game watching this.

[GibiusMaximus]

@Eternaldarkness3166 Because they're all crying over the beauty of the symphony that's why! :D

[SamYungOfficial]

Incredible

[bmarslove1]

HOW IN THE WORLD did the conductor conduct this without bawling?!?! I AM!! D:

[lostinthemix]

44yrs old sitting here crying like a slob.....what a beautiful rendition.....

[chibinekodemyx]

Dearly Beloved has got to be the most most beautiful piece of music ever composed for video games. So simple, yet so touching, and so moving.

I love it.

[Starscream051]

dearling beloved

[mapleric]

4:04....Mars by Holst?

[AlleonJ]

@Freakshow180 that was exactly what i was looking for!!! and the title is "Hand to Hand" if you'd like to know. my problem was that it was traverse town in kh1 but i was lookin only at songs in kh2. so thank you very much!!!! =)

[dannylko]

this pianist sucks

[BlindManl225]

@dannylko how about you post a video of you playing the same piece on piano.

you know. . since you know what its suppose to sound like.

[dannylko]

@BlindManl225 how about you stop defending a guy you don't even know.  Get lost.

[Hobo1030]

@dannylko How about you stop ripping on a guy you don't even know. -_- Moron.

[dannylko]

@Hobo1030 I fail to see why my opinion of his skill matters to you. Are you his lover or something? Again, get lost.

[dannylko]

@Hobo1030 whoops, you're a different guy. Same thing applies to you though, get lost. Don't waste my time.

[StayComposed]

@dannylko Do you really think if this pianist sucked he'd be playing in an orchestra? Opinion or not, this guy has to be good to play in an orchestra.

[dannylko]

@StayComposed lmao....you're so naive. That's like saying all doctors are smart...just as there are good doctors and bad doctors, there are good pianists and bad pianists.

[StayComposed]

@dannylko Doctors =/= musicians. If you were to listen to a musician, you can tell if they know how to play an instrument well or not. This pianist clearly has experience. And if you go through med school and become a doctor, you're most likely an intelligent person, although you can end up being a bad practitioner. I get what you're saying, it was just a poor example.

[dannylko]

@StayComposed perhaps it was. I'm glad you got my point though. If you think he's good, fine. I don't.

[AlleonJ]

could someone tell me what melody is played from 5:26 to 5:50. i've been trying to find it but i cant. thx =)

[Freakshow180]

@AlleonJ I believe it's the song from Traverse Town when you encounter heartless?

[Rainalon78]

I watched myself smile when Hand in Hand started. XD

[torch0108]

OK!!........ A REALLY KINGDOM HEARTS FAN WOULD NOT CLAP LIKE THAT!!!!!!!

[1texaseagle]

4:10 my part sucks. -_-

[1texaseagle]

Kyle Landry should be the one playing the piano. ;)

[xXpuditionx]

3:08 guy on the piano messed up.overall great performance

[aznmoogle]

@xXpuditionx he didnt mess up, its a flat chord

[Lexchen88]

I have... I have to go to the concert at July!!

[TheTrueChaosUnifier]

The guy at 4:10 looks like he just lost a bet.

[TheGrapefruit21]

I'm taken to another world...something that can enable the spirit to be lifted so high is remarkably precious. This must be the soundtrack of Heaven--suffering, pain, inspiration, whispers of hope...I'm swept away.

[ABDILLASOUR]

ohh wow these guys are epic

[lionheartx14]

Dearly Beloved....

[KyoDraven004]

If i were in the orchestra i´m sure i would have cried while playing Dearly Beloved! XD That song always makes me cry!!! TT^TT

[ajones363]

Which version of Dearly Beloved are they playing?

[MrHayden4495]

@ajones363 It's their own arrangement.

[eriksayshi]

We all know that feel

[Gwendi4eva]

THAT DESERVES MORE CLAPS!!!!!!!!!

[simplydung]

I wonder if all these people in the ochestra have played Kingdom Hearts.. that'd be pretty funny.:3

[DaerethBanesfire]

3:07 MISTAKE! OH NO!

[RoxasGirl14]

i love this! its amazing and i love the games as well!!

[celliewellie]

Thank you, Yoko Shimomura for giving us this gift. Your imagination and talent has given the world of video games passion and depth. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

[dblandgore]

need to get the piano music sheet

[thecommoncritic1]

4:10 that guys having the time of his life. I mean just look at the intensity in his eyes

[flamertamer15]

@thecommoncritic1 I sure hope that's sarcasm lol

[12431265]

@flamertamer15 what do you mean the guy is just jumping for joy i mean the complacent look on his face and the casual way he hits the drum he has to be the biggest fan of the music

[flamertamer15]

@12431265 Ah! I see it now! This man seems to wish nothing more from life than to be able to hit that drum once in a while for the piece! His inspirational passion is wondrous!

[Cometsanfan]

as i read wrw28405's comment with the beginning melody to go along with it, it made me tear up lol idk why. maybe it's because it's so inspiring? i never knew a video game that some people call "a waste of time" would have this big of an impact on a person's life :)

[pandaloves17]

beautiful! wish i was playing my flute with them

[rogers900]

this 2 part series video made my ears cum

Anybody else have this happen?

[lionheartx14]

I think it is amazing how music like this can inspire people like the one above to produce more incredible music. It encourages me that music like this will be available in the future.

[HiMyNameIsLam]

I'm kind of curious to know how these people feel about the music. I wonder which song is their favorite to play/listen to, considering that it's all for a video game.

[spit0flip]

Where is kingdom Hearts 3!!

[AndreaKono]

Hi, i'm italian. I'm don't speak very well english, but i think with the music we can speak everybody and I think there's nothing better than to talk with music than with Kingdom Hearts.

[jedenbeen]

@AndreaKono You are so right. Music is an universal laguage. If one can just listen, they'll understand it.

[AndreaKono]

@jedenbeen You couldn't use words better than! (I tell it right? ahah)

[jigsaw1398]

whats 3:33 tell the end?

[Saruki02389]

At the beginning:

"New Game"

"Load Game"

... Dude. Just. This. ... no words. I have none. <3

[koto2211]

the piano guy MUST play the Vector of the Heavens or Musique pour la tristesse de Xion

[hopefaith2]

So...am I the only one who literally shed tears when they played Dearly Beloved. Cause if I am, then I will proudly say that I literally started to cry when I heard it.

[Asiancookie01]

So I should be doing my midterm homework that was suppose to due yesterday but my teacher luckily gave me an extra day. But now I have a long night ahead of me because this beautiful music is such a distraction >.< I can't stop listening to it, it's so amazing and wonderful and I can't stop taking my eyes off of it. This orchestra is incredible!! :O

[KillaTequilla83]

@Asiancookie01 This music empowers me to continue studying geology of all things lol

[lulish1]

At the very begining, with those piano notes of the main menu, i almost shit tears

[nate1000man]

@lulish1 the most beautiful song ever made in my opinion

[famas246]

thank you kingdom hearts, FOR GETTIN ME A SCHOLARSHIP TO MICHIGAN

[LazuliTala]

@famas246 how did that happen?

[SimSlikVIm]

we can all admit Kingdom Hearts has changed a part of our lives. for me the music calms me. Kingdom Hearts also changed the way i think about things now. that there is good and evil but also the people who want a bit of each. i have created a facebook page for kingdom hearts as a religion. because we no kingdomhearts should be :)

[SimSlikVIm]

@SimSlikVIm scratch that nor religion! cuz you cnt get it :P its a community instead X )

[revelthehunter]

4:18 i wonder how much that guy gets paid lol

[sundogdrop]

駄目だしょっぱなで泣けてくる…

[2alicesakura2]

I want more from this orchestra @___@

[ffantasy123456789101]

oh dodgy note at 3:08

[KevinVang1000]

If they would've demonstrate an acting play to demonstrate what is going on with the story and the music, we would have a musical theater dance while the orchestra is trying to demonstrate what is Kingdom Hearts.

^_^

That would be AWESOME!

[ZomgLittle]

My god, everyone who ever lived now has every reason to live... I'll eat pickles & bell peppers, I'll pray every night, I'll donate half my paychecks to the homeless, I swear this just gave me an entirely new renewed faith in humanity 。°（°´д｀°）°

[cozasful]

@ZomgLittle nope ...sorry humanity is doomed and nothing can change that.... there many more "precious" stuff then being a good person , being a person that can love etc. and that most important stuff is "MONEY" as long as this is the most precious thing for people humanity is doomed sorry ..... you might have a different opinion and yes im off topic since this is a music video but i would like to answer to this statement !

[Mistynia3]

Goosebumps with dearly beloved <3

[amschu04]

3:08 bad chord :3

[Azande1110]

@amschu04 Please tell me that's a joke...

[megaman00]

IMO KH series has the BEST music in video game history hands down.

[TheWhatyr]

@megaman00 Personally, I think they're right next to Valve's and Danny B's (Super Meat Boy and Binding of Isaac). All 3 blow my mind. Just amazing. But KH1 is what got me into ARPGs.

[DukeUuito]

@megaman00

Someone hasn't played Chrono Cross.

:O

[LockePhilote]

@megaman00 I have to agree with DukeUurio... Chrono Cross is just a slight bit better than KH music wise... only because of Radical Dreamers... that song is pure emotion... the ending is the most bittersweet thing i have ever seen in my life... Its tied with KH1 as my fave game of all time... both games transcended gamehood, and found... something else, some truth about life... whatever they found, i will forever applaud Square for giving us such quality music and games.

[goaliedude32]

@megaman00 Final Fantasy my friend. KH is a very close second though

[GOE7Song]

@megaman00 Here you go, good sir or madame, one free internet to use at your discretion.

[kanwan4]

@megaman00 Square Enix makes the best music period. KH and all the Final Fantasy games! KH = FF

[KarpfenKarpfen]

This is awesome!!!! I could listent o this the whole day :)

But i wish they would have included Hikari somehow because i love this song ^^

[JohnKimchi]

I don't care about Call of Duty, Halo, or any of that. Kingdom Hearts is the only game I need, and it brings beautiful music which we don't hear often :)

[STGOserpent]

@JohnKimchi But truthfully have you herd halo's music? It's just as beautiful......or less hehe

[themadhatter1011]

Did anyone hear the piano 3:10? this song is beautiful but that really stuck out to me



[armadoruci94]

i love this song



[ntwynn]

I feel like this was supposed to be part 1...

[crossman456]

i feel sorry for people who dont even give this music a chance becuz it was made for a video game. to miss out on this... this pure beauty, beauty is not in the eye of the beholder becuz this is the essence of beauty, the emotion! this music is of the highest of brilliance a human can achieve. to deny this, well you would truly be hearltess*pun intended*

[flyordien3rd]

@000666000 i love the ff10,13, and KH soundtrack because its simple and beautiful, my friends are always mad that i listen to classical orchestrated music, they always call it piano music, i like the stuff from movies too, like inception's music was epic, it tells a story in itself the music that isi just wish i could find more

[SoxStar89]

was 3:08 a fuck up? lol

[flyordien3rd]

@SoxStar89 it does sond like the person on piano went off key

[r4hul101]

@SoxStar89 LOL yep, I heard it as well .

[coolmane1365]

kingdom hearts is one of my most favorite videogames and i'm preaty shure it always will be

[anna67maria]

000666000 ho messo non mi piace....invece hai ragione!

[evh5150hawaii]

This series is my childhood.

[Lato28W]

Ok...

1. Search rainymood on google

2. play this video

3. Enjoy ~

[wrw28405]

This is game is what first got me interested in music. I began playing piano because I wanted to play Simple and Clean for my friend, and my little 8-note ocarina couldn't handle it :-P then I decided I wanted to be a part of orchestra after hearing Hikari, and later Passion, orchestrated. Now, almost 5 years later I'm going to college fall next year to study music education and performance, I'm an orchestral viola player, and a classical concert pianist. Thank you, Kingdom Hearts.

[TJKuro]

@wrw28405 Same here.Literally... I'm a year and a half(though i had to take a break) into learning piano. It's hard teaching yourself but it's so worthit :) thank you kingdom heargs <3

[Dreadmonkey1]

@wrw28405 Good sir, also as a music major, I wish you the best of luck. Your story was truly inspiring, and I have recently had a hard time getting inspired. Thank you

[kh2yknow]

@wrw28405 this nearly gave me tears hahah

[TheBackstabRecords]

@wrw28405 Respect

[Qiffeyh]

@wrw28405 I salute you! :')

[mrmonkeymanfreak]

When I was little my parents were divorced. At my father's I had a PS2 and played the Kingdom Hearts games non-stop. Back then I was picked on all the time by bullies. I would think that Kingdom Hearts was my only escape. A place of magic and adventure. When I turned 10 I never thought that would be the last time I saw my father, but sadly it was. I never got my PS2 back, so I never got to play Kingdom Hearts on the PS2 ever again. This video made me remember the good times and brought me tears

[dahgutone]

@mrmonkeymanfreak

Bullies sicken me.

I've been there.

Keep your head up high bro.

[daradidam]

shivers down to my spine

[michaaltje]

I wanted to hear a fight to the death more.. :S but still liked the orchestra very much!!!!! :D wish I could play with them! would feel sooooo GREAT

[ZigZagZiggyZach]

The ratings may be off, but I pounded the Like button.

Thumbs up if you like this video.

[cullenster4]

did anyone else catch a mistake at about 3:12?

[XAwesomeRockerDudeX]

@cullenster4 yeah the piano player

[ishomodin]

when i die, this better be played or i'll be pissed

[CheaaaKuzzy]

this kind of music has really impacted my life and im now going to study classical music at uni its all because of this game and others like it bringing classical music to kids like us thanks alot =]

[Kev4ik]

Symphonic Fantasies will be repeated in 2012 in cologne!!!!! and i'll definitely buy 2 tickets! ;D

[Asgard72]

Fight to the DEATH!

[xiweiding]

this is a copied comment from a long time ago:

"The guy at 4:11 realizes he should have picked a different instrument."

[Kironic102]

No offense or anything but some of the muscans look like "i hate my life -__-"

[Aerseph4eva]

@Kironic102 Probably since they have had to do so many takes of this song. Feeling drained I guess x

[Asgard72]

@Kironic102 I'd have to agree, they really need to lighten up.

[Kironic102]

@Asgard72 see youknow what i'm saying haha

[ABThatsMe91]

I literally stopped breathing and now I'm dizzy.

Absolutely Breath-taking <3

[Vocaloid24]

*sniff* Dearly Beloved........

So beautiful.... :'D

I know some of the players are crying too, when they play this song, they just don't want to show it.

[meowimacat13]

@Vocaloid24 hmmm i dont mind if people see me crying because of this wonderful music, this was a great game with great music, its only natural to cry from this, its just so over whelming and overtaking, you just cant help but cry.

[kuftopa]

@meowimacat13 This is exactly what I feel right now.

[meowimacat13]

@kuftopa well enjoy the music, some might say when it ends its over, but it stays with me 4ever im my memeries.

[scottsmen124]

KICK ASS!!!

[omegalipsis]

Want to cry.... so beautiful

[torimidori96786]

i almost felt like crying at dearly beloved :'(

[akarte00]

its like theres no fan of kh in that public... XD but its only my imagination >,<

[unusualcatperson]

*insert quote from Kingdom Hearts game*

[000666000]

Those big persons like Mozart, Bach or Orff would be proud that today still this kind of music exist. I´m a big fan of classic music and videogames are full of this music. Next week I go to a concert of KH, FF, Zelda and Mario in Leverkusen (germany) and after that I go to Cologne to Symphonic Odysseys. I´m so happy that they bring the music to Germany. It´s amazing how a modern thing like a videogame can bring young people to classic music.

[RoXas1227]

@000666000

Ja, es ist wunderschöne Musik.

Yeah it's beautiful music.

[spit0flip]

@000666000 i totally agree, but the composers are not highly credited for there works cause its for video games, which is a shame

[trey1177]

@000666000 your from germany? lol i have to do this sorry but your a nazi. im jk. i ,love classic music toooooooooo and i hope this music never stops coming to be

[Trumpetqueen8]

@trey1177 It's people like you that make Americans look dumb, ignorant, and culturally insensitive. Please think before posting something as petty as overused and incorrect stereotypes.

[trey1177]

@Trumpetqueen8 thats why i said jk

[Astropelt]

@trey1177 the holocaust isn't something to be joking around about, same with nazis. Be lucky you weren't around the time that it happened.

[trey1177]

@Astropelt who said anything about the holocaust and if you ever came here its not like no one jokes about it now. sure it was horrible thats why you look at it in different ways and seriously i dont care if i live or die

[Dillan44]

@Astropelt more like lolocaust, amirite?

[KevinVang1000]

I agree!

[cph159]

4:10 he looks so happy

[MairBob]

I'm telling the god-honest truth when I say that hearing this rendition of 'Dearly Beloved' made me REALLY cry :')

[flameaxel]

Beautiful medley, but I can't believe they got away with not putting any of Destati in there

[hephaestion1990]

@flameaxel totally agree

[TheRaXeon]

@flameaxel

they put destati in the final boss medley^^

[nuetralkid]

@TheRaXeon Technically that was Fragments of Sorrow.

[nuetralkid]

@nuetralkid Or rather, Guardando nel buio. >_>

[Flameshadow1010]

"Behold. These lifeless keys used to be full of power. United with the hearts of their masters. On this barren soil, Keyblades of Light and Dark were locked in combat as a great Keyblade War raged!"

[nhaer042]

I really miss these games. Give us a PS3 release of the first two games at least.

[dodiswatchbobobo]

@nhaer042 Saix or Xigbar(Pretty sure it's Saix) says it to Axel in 358/2 days.

[dodiswatchbobobo]

@nhaer042 PS2's still exist you know... and to your question, Saix or Xigbar (pretty sure it's Saix) says it to Axel near the end of 358/2 Days(For the DS)

[dodiswatchbobobo]

@nhaer042 PS2's still exist you know... and to your question, Saix or Xigbar (pretty sure it's Saix) says it to Axel near the end of 358/2 Days(For the DS, not the PS2)

[XxBLACKBITExX]

Kindom Hearts one oh the best games ever!

[meowth900]

Dearly Beloved makes me tear up, its so pretty. I tink it was the song in the title screen of ReCoded.

[HyperGamer14]

@meowth900 Dearly Beloved is the Song for every Kingdom Hearts Titlescreen.

[MissSnoCon]

this is so beautiful. <3 this music always makes me tear up.. especially when im watching the video of Sora's dreams.

[12lenae]

omg dearly beloved always makes me feel so sappy lol. it always gives me goosebumps too. good ole kingdom hearts

[nurahsplaylists]

I teared up when they started to play dearly beloved. Never heard it from a live orchestra, it is gorgeous!

[raphasmr]

@nurahsplaylists me too! this is just amazing. and i'm not much of a person who cries that easily.

[lionheartx14]

Ahhh Dearly Beloved.......so beautiful

[realblush]

Is 3:10 a mistake? On the CD it is different
