Probably the only version of this music that's actually really good on the whole youtube, and I mean it. Or maybe it just outshines every other very much.
You need to work on the polyrythmic sections as the right hand is meant to be straight quavers and you are playing them as dotted quavers, so slow the section down and build it up :). I'm playing this piece for a performance unit for my A-levels tomorrow.
when doing the arpeggios with your left hand... it might help to use your middle finger on the fourth note. i noticed you use your index finger, which is fine. but some complex music will become easier.
But you play great. dont let me put you down haha.
winksoft360: not to put YOU down but you probably know as a pianist that once you're used to play in one way it's difficult to change it, and I've seen this guy play already very complex music so I don't think his index finger is a problem to him. Although your tip is a good one, but I doubt that he will listen to it since he probably already knew that.
Beautiful, beautiful playing. As others have said, maybe go a little softer and more sentimental on it (that's what this piece is all about). But who am I to judge? I can't play near as well as you. And you did play beautifully. Thanks for sharing. =)
you should be more delicate with in some parts like in the begining.. dont forget thats what make the song an amazing song.. its softness. Dont try to rush trough it.. you have to FEEL IT.!
besides that, that was some excellent playing and ill give you a 4/5 keep practicing
You are amazing 10/10 do you have the sheet music for this. I would absolutely love it if you could send me the sheet music. Send me a message to my youtube channel and tell me if you have it thanks!!
All you people pointing out the kids mistakes need to get over yourselves. Who cares if he fudged it (which i dont think he did)? You feel like big men pointing out the flawes in this? He's a prodigy and all you can do is nitpick.Sure you underhandedly complement him, but not before calling attention to small thing which matter little. Half of you with such comments probably cant even tap out "Chopsticks",so shut up and remember:Your sh*t stinks just like everyone elses.
dude, your amazing, all your vids have awesome sound, you got everything you play down perfectly. Would be awesome to see some more final fantasy stuff!
ur piano sounds a little out of tune, have u fixed that? looking at ur vids and this one i could tell ur a real maple leaf rag man. this performance was a little fast and a little loud. Sorry! :D (BTW ur other pieces are GREAT!!)
You had a few very minor mistakes but covered them very well by not pausing or hesitating one bit. All in all you did extremely well with this beautiful song!! Keep up the good work and hope to see more of ur videos later on in the future.
WOW You´re an awesome piano player!!!And you play the piano with great feeling and you have a wealth of interpretation!!! Congrats dude!!!Keep that good work!!! I want to see more of it XD!!!
Great job, man! Keep up the good work, soon you'll be like Martin Leung (search him. This is one of my favorite songs for the piano, and you put up a great performance.
hmmm this is a different interpretation. i like it a lot. its more groovy than the official one. some people play it a lot slower. but i think i like yours best. ah, don't you just love how people see the same thing differently? you are playing the exact same notes as everyone else that plays this song but the results are so different! amazing!
Great job! That was beautiful! Your really inspired me to play piano more. I quit lessons a few years ago because I simply didn't have time for piano anymore. Now I hope to play piano more. I really miss it.
good job! i was very impressed. i've been trying to play this song- but it is so hard! you seemed to get really into this song. keep up the good work! how long did it take your to get his son perfect?
Personally, I don't play it with the little "jumps" at the beginning chords and I usually hold the pedal down longer but I thought you had kick ass dynamics.
your play is excellent. I just got the sheets of tifa's theme, nd i'm so happy!! I'm learning to play now, nd its going quite well^^.. but ehh, nice job! i gave u 5 stars
I love this song and i'm almost done beating FF7 and I just got it on Christmas!!!! You are the best person on here that can play this song on the piano and I gave you 5 stars! * both thumbs up*
very niice job. that middle part is tough,i know i cant play it properly. Very nice musical expression. too many white people on youtube and they can only play the first half of the song. i wish i could play it that well.
great job! it sounds exactly like the actual song on the movie...i felt like i was listening to the actual person who made the song..i think his name was nobuo uematsu? yea, awesome skills you got lol^^
heh i dont take lessons and i can play the first page, its not that hard EVEN I learned it in two days about =D hehe iono about the 3rd page though that might take me awhile >_< and GJ on the playing, yay you =D
Your piano its really nice...FVII it's my favourite of all FF. You play really good i must say,and really soft,and i really like tifa..it was perfect for cloud.
finally, an actual experienced piano player. i js don't like it when people exagerrate their movements or don't express the dynamics of the piece well. i have the X2 piano collections and am trying to memorize tracks 1, 2, 3, 11, & 12. i love how you expressed this piece. btw, was the second to last chord right?? js wondering. =)
Reminds me of a girl I once knew..
