[Tutorial] Guild Wars 2 - Gamescom 2011 Trailer Theme

[B3N1NAT0R]

Could you maybe change the video settings so we can select the speed it plays at incise we want to play it at a slower pace for those trying to copy the notes like me ;D thanks!

[Silven5]

Hey man, what would be the most helpful thing you could say to a complete scrub piano player? like, JUST starting out with no money to get lessons?:D much appreciated bro

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Silven5

I guess try not to approach it as work despite it requiring a lot of work to excel at. let inspiration be your guide. learn pieces that move you but also try pieces beyond your ability. it can be a mind game at times. fortunately that is up to you ;)

[zhevox]

I downloaded the piano midi files and i can't delete it, the file owner is unknown, and i cant change it. wtf?

[xjustamem0ryx]

@zhevox

oh weird. I promise it's safe >:)

[WuRscHtBr0T]

Thanks alot, I was just about writing it down by myself. You saved me a lot of work there!

[SuperDarone]

wow nice! also playable on e-guitar? :D

[lankeysob]

really cool piano composition, hope the rest of the games music lives up to this piece

[EvilMonk100]

Damn. I love you for this. ♥

[Quasar97]

thank you so much for the sheet music!!

[BarrierOfLighT]

Guys i'm just new to piano and eager to play this awesome song. How does one make that big of a stretch at 0;16-0;18 (the left 3 notes). Do i have to play that 'pinky' an octave higher? Thanks in advance.

[aceoffail]

@BarrierOfLighT When i was learning it i just played that note with my right hand

[Mendolia414]

so im trying to figure this out for acoustic guitar, :O might need two...or maybe...guitar and UKE XD

[Aludeni]

Where can I get the mp3s?

[Raaaaaawrrrr]

really awesome thx



[bartvanz]

every time i hear this it makes me calm :)

[derRAV3N]

what program you used at recording?

[AeToril]

pffft looks f***ing impossible

[SirioxHi]

hard to learn with this tutorial ^^

[toastisimo]

Yeah I love this song, Jeremy Souls is pretty awsome.

And another favorit is; Nuvole Bianche by Ludovico Einaudi.

[AlaroxR]

Yay I can play up to the first 19 seconds... after that... =(

[redlinevo911]

3 people accidentally clicked the wrong button.

[nejustinas32]

Too bad i only play with an accordion. So i only can play with one had :(

[xjustamem0ryx]

@nejustinas32

:(

dual accordionz!

[Ztiromak]

I am learning this currently on piano^^ Its fun xD

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Ztiromak

awesome!

[ozk4r123]

And i think Guitar Hero was hard :D

[spudo303]

unfortunately the .midi doesn't do this song justice. i've watched that trailer over 10 times and i've felt like crying almost every time. so beautiful :')

can't wait to learn this... i think i'll learn it for violin as well as piano, because i'm boss like that :D

[TheOldalf]

think i can get the notes for this on violin?:D

[xjustamem0ryx]

@TheOldalf

added to "More Info"

:D

[TheOldalf]

@xjustamem0ryx thanks mate,

[GWthomse]

amazing :D

[Th3K1ll4ND]

Doesn't matter how manny times i try to play this ... I'm just not able to make it sound smooth...

I started playing piano about a month ago (trying to teach myself) and after practising nearly every day for about 30-60 min im still just @ 50 seconds in xD

guess it's not that good a song to start with if you haven't ever played the piano b4. oh well no matter ill just keep trying.

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Th3K1ll4ND

1 day! :)

[Th3K1ll4ND]

@xjustamem0ryx I'm afraid i do not quite understand what you mean by 1 day...

[Matthijs3476]

@Th3K1ll4ND 24 hours

[jjr1295]

@Th3K1ll4ND I think he meant that one day you will be able to do it. Hehe

[xjustamem0ryx]

@jjr1295

heh yessir

[Rohirka]

The red line startrd perfectly and almost won the race but the green lane was the winner in the end.

I don't know why blue lines commited suicied on the fence, they were good too.

[superjorrja]

thx for the sheet, ill practise it and make a video response when i can play :)

[ringgeest11]

Do I play Piano? No...

Do I wish I play piano and play this song all freaking day? Yes!

Don't I give crap that I neverlearned piano and still wanna practise this till death to play it? YES!

[CKproduktions]

make 50% speed D: would help so much

[3frags4suicides]

this song just made my day......

I just listening to this song over and over remembering events and battles of playing Guildwars...

[Wiggev]

Do anyone have guitar tabs for this? :) [Sorry for bad english]

[Pavlo9758]

this song is so hard to play after 15 seconds, and you need a large hand span to get those 5 keys at once.

[TheB2zo]

GW 2 <<---- 2012 Pleas !!! XD

[Frazful]

The game is not even out and am gonna do a remix on this already! Cheers to u for uploading this sir

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Frazful

nice! :)

[MrObsidian91]

@Frazful I'm hearing a slow beat and a bassline in my head on this

[xjustamem0ryx]

@MrObsidian91

rRrEMIX!

[xLovepie]

Thanks a bunch mr. uploader! I thought there were going to be impossible to find notes to this song :d

[xjustamem0ryx]

@xLovepie

d(^.^)b

[xjustamem0ryx]

@wolffanghakai

nope, never too old :)

[PhatAlex1991]

Fantastic, can you put up the notes by any chance?

[xjustamem0ryx]

@PhatAlex1991

in the "more info" ^^

[MarioTheFirst3Runner]

I used to have a keyboard but my sister went to college and took it with her

DAMN HER !!!!!!!

i wanna play this so bad :(

[xjustamem0ryx]

@MarioTheFirst3Runner

:O Thief!

:)

[SSGungnir]

This song is very nice, i like it.

[xjustamem0ryx]

@JPS2784

I hear that. sometimes I wish I could take a pill that would erase my first experience of a game so I can keep reliving the first moment lol.

[Beaterie]

epic!

[CampanionCube]

this gave me goose bumps

[Xaielao2]

I used to play a lot of piano but anymore I just have a dusty keyboard in the house. This makes me want to go out and buy a grand piano to learn this song lol. It's just so fantastic. Easily Soule's best work.

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Xaielao2

git r dun boss! :)

[ABabyPenguin]

Thanks so much! I am halfway through the song now, it has helped me so much! I will be checking out your other videos soon :)

[xjustamem0ryx]

@ABabyPenguin

thanks for stopping by ^^

[imadethis2comment]

I just started playing piano and wanted to learn this song but I couldn't even find a name for it! Thanks so much for putting this up!

[xjustamem0ryx]

@imadethis2comment

it probably has a name but since it hasn't been officially introduced (via OST) just yet, the name is unknown ;(

happens with most music yanked from a pre-release trailer ;)

[Buffalor4]

:'(

[SlappedYak317]

Soule is a GOD. Thank you so much for putting this up, saves me working it out on my own. Now my inner GW2 geek will be satiated for a while ;) 

[xjustamem0ryx]

@SlappedYak317

unleash teh g33k!

[Th3K1ll4ND]

I decided to pick up playing the piano after hearing this song.. eventhough Im a bit old to be starting now .... oh well neither do i know if this is a gd song to start with as a beginner but im doing it anyways :D does take me a long time though 1 week and im still @ 30 secs

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Th3K1ll4ND

:) just don't let quantity detract quality

[limeroundup]

@xjustamem0ryx Well said!

[StreamStationAlpha]

@Th3K1ll4ND nonsense never too old to begin to play an instrument! If you put time in you can become good quite fast.

[archael18]

@Th3K1ll4ND Not sure how old you are but there really isn't a set age where one can start enjoying playing the piano. I started at 21 years old and I still keep getting better and better -- and I enjoy it everytime I sit down to play.

[Th3K1ll4ND]

@archael18 I am 18 years old :) and yeah i love 2 do it aswell but the song starts gettin alot harder @ 40sec/ 1 min

[xjustamem0ryx]

@archael18

amen!

[arontana]

Been working on learning this for like the past week. Really starting to sound good, pretty much on the middle now.

Thanks for posting this, great song, feels awesome to play.

[xjustamem0ryx]

@arontana

awesome d(^.^)b

[SirDialis]

wish i could get the sheet music without my laptop telling me the website is covered in viruses-.-

[xjustamem0ryx]

@SirDialis

must be false positives. mediafire and all the files I post there are safe ^^

[SirDialis]

@xjustamem0ryx sorry didnt mean to blame you over it d: never really trusted media fire.



[xjustamem0ryx]

@SirDialis

no worries ^^

[SirDialis]

@xjustamem0ryx can you post at like 75% speed too? d:

[KailJudgementNeo]

May I edit the soundfont and upload it to my channel? I thought I'd ask but if you do I promise to give you credit! Epic Midi btw I love it.

[xjustamem0ryx]

@KailJudgementNeo

sure bud ^^

[KailJudgementNeo]

@xjustamem0ryx Thanks ^_^

[colironi2]

lovely ^^

[lllixer]

2 people are in the ER from trying to play this.

[arrd]

this is just so beautiful. im speechless

[Zerelin]

got anymore guild wars 2 midis?

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Zerelin

not atm ;(

I don't think I've heard too much in the way of GW2 music yet

[GameModJr]

i want to know who actually played this so i can shake his or her godly hands

[cpperalta]

@GameModJr : I believe it was composed by Jeremy Soule.

[xjustamem0ryx]

@GameModJr

I think it was sequenced (digital piano samples) in the trailer.

[Beaterie]

@xjustamem0ryx

yes i think all music in games (exactly in Guild Wars 2) are played with Computer programs! it would be too expensive to let them play by an orchester.

[Disfuncti0n]

@GameModJr

The song is composed by Jeremy Soul

[Sorrows777]

ima learn the piano just so i can play this song!

[Mlegacies]

stunning...

I NEED TO FIND THE PIANO SHEET!!!

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Mlegacies

in the more info xD

[fgfm03]

I tried to find it by ears but you've been faster and no regrets, your version is absolutely PERFECT !!!!

Very impressive job ;)

[Zorphlak]

Whoever those 2 dislikes are obviously have no taste in music or game. GW2!!!!

Plus this music is legit. does anyone know if they named it? Would love to find that out.

[YrielFagoren]

I have cried of joy when I saw for the first time the new trailer.

THIS MUSIC IS SOOO EPIC DUDES !!!!

[xjustamem0ryx]

@YrielFagoren

mos deffff

[Ginurufuzu]

I HAAAAVE to improve my piano skills now

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Ginurufuzu

git r dun!

[NexEstVox]

This needs to be in the game. Make it a little music box someplace, that would sound sweet.

[xasterothx]

I started to bite my nails because of this epic song...Then i realized i had been picking my nose...but then i didnt care...

[xjustamem0ryx]

@xasterothx

/tissue ;)

[DHDirectX]

Hearing this makes me want to take up piano playing.

[xjustamem0ryx]

[xjustamem0ryx]

[epicnidhogg]

[xjustamem0ryx]

@epicnidhogg

heh maybe but even though I like piano I don't DISLIKE guitar! I got my start in music on guitar and guitar music is awesome in its own ways ;)

[DonFouado]

Guildwars 2 Gc 2011 Trailer EPPPIC MELODY <3

[WallWalker13]

Am I the only one who uses midi's like this as a sort of 'Piano Hero'?

If not, then you better try :)

[MrFishcake1000]

I can't stop listing to this

[Ayrentrunks]

sounds like a final fantasy oO

[radoflamer]

@Ayrentrunks it sounds like "To Zanarkand" to me in places

[sacredgod10]

It kind of reminds me of the morrowind theme

[waterbender25]

@sacredgod10 that's because the person who composed the original piece of this theme is the same guy who composed the Morrowind theme :P

[iBizzfull]

lol the red and green bar are having a race

[xjustamem0ryx]

@iBizzfull

"eets a race!"

[0rdanJ]

So awesome =D

[MrFrostyDelight]

lol Piano Hero

[Dimundbac]

For some reason, I think of To Zanarkand whenever I hear this song.

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Dimundbac

it does seem very similarly anthem-like ;)

[lovefoxx222]

Thank you sooo much for this! :)



[chaospete1]

Hey can you upload the midi please?



[xjustamem0ryx]

@chaospete1

in the "More Info" ^^

[chaospete1]

[Ic3CroW]

[xjustamem0ryx]

@Ic3CroW

[crazycatz00]

[themozartmo]

[Pizarroconquer]

[iDarkFury]

[Luinarmlmant]

Great work! Thank you for sharing!

[LilianneElizabeth]

Beautiful :) Thank you!

[direskys]

It's as if the lines themselves are telling a story.

[GibTheComputerFan]

[McFreshBuddy]

[xjustamem0ryx]

@McFreshBuddy
