  • Piano skill lvl: Orlandu

  • To push on the "like" button is not enough.

    It deserves I drop a line: this is fucking awesome and thank you so much!

    You are the only one that combined good audio quality, very good skills and great music selection of the FFT OST.

    I really hope you're going to do something like this with as much good violin!

    Advice: although this is perfect to me, remember that short videos are easier to promote! ;)

  • Argath and Gaffgarion disliked this awesome arrangement. 

  • There are no words in any known language that could possibly express the amount of awesomeness that is pouring out of my speakers at this very moment. Having said that, I hope EXCELLENT job will suffice.

  • everytime i get to the end i shut it off and start a new game. I cant stand the thought of the game ending

  • fucking awesome Andy.

  • I'm not kidding when I say my entire life's accomplishments combined were eclipsed by this performance. If I could be born again and learn to play all FFT songs this well on piano, my life would be complete. FFT was unbelievable! I lost a lot of sleep over this game. Thanks for this insanely awesome video.

  • That was truly a masterful performance; thank you very much for sharing it.

  • Btw, if anyone is yearning to get their hands on the mp3 version of this. Go to listentoyoutube and convert this link. It automatically becomes mp3. That's what I did.

    Btw gamefaqs is running rivalry rumble right now and Delita vs Ramza is in the bracket. Be sure to vote them as they are up in a couple of days, just to show the world that FFT is the best game ever!!

  • Dude, you're fucking amazing!!

  • 1:18 to 2:16 is my favorite part.

    For me this is the best final fantasy EVER, its like a game and a movie at the same time, great historical background, and also very intelligent story (about war, strategies, government, like if it was a 15th century movie)

    great playing too bro, keep it up!

  • :)

  • Do you have like a sheet music for all of these? This is really awesome work and to think you played it by ear! Wish I could play as good as you!

  • So awesome. I love the music of FFT more than any game soundtrack EVER. Such a beautiful composition. Bravo sir.

  • omg you have done a great thing. every peice in this song made me feel a little warm inside

  • my childhood =')! thanks for bringing back good memories, great playing!

  • FFT had the best music. Once I've finished with the various FF9 piano songs I want to learn ( I just started piano), I'm doing so many of these...

  • 2 people can't be serious

  • 'God' is an image created out of man's insecurities.

    - Wiegraf

    Don't blame me. Blame yourself or God.

    - Delita

    If only you had lived an honest life, you wouldn't have died in obscurity.

    - Ramza

    LEGENDARY GAME. Thanks for the great piano session!

  • Very good!!! I love this game too. FFT have the best history line of all time, and one of the best soundtracks too.. I really want a remake for ps3

  • Awesome, love FFT

  • This is simply amazing, thank you so much for sharing this with us. FFT will always have a special place in my heart. :)

  • you sir are indeed a master,.

  • one mo0:00re time!

  • please release some kind of high quality mp3, your music is amazing!

  • Bravo!! Bellisimo! Magnifico!

  • 1:19, my favorite! Awesome job!!

  • Thank you!! i always want to hear it live! now i can rest in peace! XD thanks!! :D you're awesome! :D

  • you're awesome thank you so much but there something i'd like to ask you: could you please send me the music sheet for your compilation if you have them thanks

  • i love this game and music soooooo much. i applaud you sir. if only you wrote some simple sheet music for it. doesn't have to be perfect. :D

  • mad crazy plain bro!!!!! but i think that piano may be out of tune?

  • I appreciate that you put Decisive Battle in this! Great job :)

  • Excellent job -- most moving soundtrack I know. Thanks for the awesome video. Do you have any plans on releasing a viable .mp3 of this arrangement? I would pay for it in iTunes, no doubt.

  • Awesome! But why is there a double note sound specially at the right hand.

  • WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL!!!

  • Amazing

  • It's an epic arrangement.... and mp3 would make my day.

  • rly good ! FFT was in the shadow of FF7, too bad that so many gamers missed that masterpiece, a perfect balance between Ogre tactics and final fantasy. Your piano skills are delicious, too bad that the audio quality is low, you should remaster it ! Really nice video, keep making us happy !

  • i don't like how your piano sounds, but i have to say this is one of the most wonderfull things somebody has ever done, since, the only concert held for specifically FFtactics happened in Japan, and there's no audio record whatsoever since it was actualy unofficial )=

    thanks, and please, keep playing FFT music !

  • fuck, I just had an orgasm! you r awesome

  • I'd say FFT was overall the best FF game in my opinion. great music, great story, great game-play.. makes me sad that FFTA was such a heartbreaking let down...a decent game by itself but trash compared.to the original.

  • Tactics did have the best OST of all the Final Fantasies. The fact that it's all midis is mindblowing as well.

  • Oh, this is wonderful!

    I also deeply believe that FFT has the best music soundtrack out of any of the other Final Fantasies. You've done a wonderful job putting this excellent music to the piano. FFT is one of the best games out there, and I wish it got more respect for what it is. Thank you for doing this!! I love it!

  • Thank you so much for your appraisal! When I created this, I had no idea how many hardcore FFT fans would come forth and show their appreciation for this video. I thought I was virtually alone, when I called this game my favorite of all time. I can see now that I am among peers. It is a pleasure creating such an avenue of nostalgia and appreciation, for the true fans of the game itself and the game's amazing music. Keep viewing! Lets go for 20K views so this thing will get noticed haha :D

  • @AnnaRosa2012 yes tactics really is a true masterpiece through and through music gameplay storyline and music.

  • @AnnaRosa2012 they should stop in doing lol remake or new useless game like FF13 , Do a FFT2 with play 3 potential and the very same coolness of the best game ever made "Final Fantasy Tactics" im 28 and im playing that game from when i was 14 and still playing it on psp lol tell me another game that you play for 14 years without getting bored xD

  • Trying.... to learn.... pieces by watching.... I don't suppose you've written any of the music have ya? XD I find myself coming back to view this quite often.

  • If I may, May I ask for sheet music for this if you have it? I have a keyboard and may be able to play at least some of this... I have been wanting to play this for quite some time. Every time I watch this video I am washed over with waves of nostalgia.... I love it!

  • can you do some "music scores" to share please.

  • I'm crying man, this is amazing, FFT is my favorite game, and the soundtrack is my fave, too. Thanks for the video, could you upload a mp3 of your compilation? Thanks again :3

  • 良いねー

    アップライトがまたいい。

    SOUNDS GREAT

  • you have gud memory omg wow o_O

  • thank you

  • The Psone FFT version was lot better, not slowing graphic skills , the spell where casted with words too, the audio was lot better too, the only nice thing for he war of the lion where the new added and the pvp thing , i think squareenix should do an online tactics game on FFT XD

  • @CloudStrifeCosplay I disagree. The PSP version improved the main story due to its AMAZING script, but I agree that no lag was nice and the animation quotes were good.

  • @JudgeMagisterDelita i never said anithing on the story, i was talking about the lag and audio that is cheap and the spell dont have the speech before you cast, that the previous FFT had its bugged on the psp, you can even chose to put that off in the option, but its already set on Off >.< that was cool.... Brush of vanity and show reality!! ULTIMA!!! XD

  • thanks for this beautiful rendition. FFT is my all time favorite game and I really appreciate your tribute to it. thanks you for your wonderful interpretation of the music.

  • mad skills

  • Great vid by the way. Forget to put it on the last comment ^_^". I hope i can someday play piano as well as you.

  • Can you please tell me where do you find the Original Soundtracks for this game? I mean the CD box on your piano, not something that you can download on the Internet. I tried to find it in ebay but no luck. Thank you very much.

    P.S: I love this game, especially Delita. People say him is a hypocrite, backstabber, and nasty things like that, but he still is a great character. I would do the same if i was in his shoes.

  • Agreed. But I think to have a preference of one style over the other is a fair call, eh? :) Thanks for checking it out.

  • @acmarcan Don't get me wrong, I fell in love with Sakimoto's works after Uematsu started to wane after FF6. Sakimoto got it right with FFT and Vagrant Story, and I've been a fan since(FFXII being another story...). Solid interpretations, to you, though. Glad the spirit of his games still live on. As a request, can you do Trisection and A Chapel? Those were two of many favorite tracks on the ost. =)

  • You are my hero!! 9 minutes of goosebumps

  • wow! this guy is a beast..... more people should have seen this.

  • Nice job! It might be a good idea if you put the name of each song and the time that song plays at in the description. That way, it would help us identify some of the less famous songs.

  • truely amazing. i love this music. its half the reason why i cant get enough of the game.do you have the sheet music for any of the songs by any chance? i especially liked your hero's theme cover. thanks for posting

  • amazing, you are awesome, i just can play moonlight sonata, :'( , clap clap clap clap clap..... BRAVOOOO!!!!

  • this video should have 1m+ views, seriously

  • where did you learn all that do you have the sheet

  • aahhh oh my god icant believe you have this

  • Comment removed

  • Incredible. Love it all

  • OMG!! I love fft, it was among my favourite RPG of all time. Soundtrack superb and one of the best storylines ever and awsome gameplay. The game was tough til u get thunder god cid :)

  • Agriaslskk I also love the game

    I've been playing my main file fore 400 hours excluded the fact I played the story many times over and over. (like master all jobs and having lvl 25 characters on battle number 4)

  • Jesus, you know how to make even the shop theme sound epic.

  • My god.... Tha sound...

  • This is amazing. Brings back so many memories. I like playing the songs from FFT in my spare time too 8] Beat the game so many times. I have at least 10 different save files.. lol

  • It seems to be to little interest in this wonderful piece of art around compared to the (very good indeed) works of Uematsu.

    I will not dare to ask to trascribe these wonderful arrangement into sheet music (though I would gladly pay for it, along with many others I guess), but won't it be possible at all to record a midi out of it, saving all the hassle of trascribing the arrangements?

    Well, just an humble request your work is truly amazing: I especially love the tutorial music ;)

  • man someone can tell me the name of the song at 7:35? plz

  • @serveroz That's the Tutorial music (track 34 in Disc 1 of the OST), truly amazing rendition!

  • This is really beautifully done, did you do this all by ear? If so, bravo, good sir.  You have earned a subscription =P

  • Will you ever make an Mp3 Version of this?

  • This must have been hard to compile :o [amazing job]

  • Comment removed

  • AWESOME!

    I've played this game on my PS1 in the 90s, I played this game on my crappy PC (emulator), then I played it for my PSP, and now I just enjoy its music. Good times!

    Thanks for this! might convert it and put it on my ipod...

  • Absolutely mesmerizing. Honestly, words do this no justice. Fantastic!

  • Awesome performance!! Encore!!!!:D It's a bit strange though because this is the first time I saw a pianist playing soundtracks of a video game. I saved this to one of my favorite videos also because I love FF Tactics. FFT is excellent because it had a well-thoughtout system for acquiring abilities and the battles were really fun. The characters we received randomly in the beginning (with random names like Alexia, Don or Reily) later really grow in us. Planning to buy it for my future children.

  • i swear that all the music in every final fantasy game is jst amazing!

  • This is the best game ever... Love the songs ... too much memories *-*!

  • Keep up the good work!

    Try adding in cords and octaves in the melody (RH). Especially the climax.

  • Amazing. I'm still playing the psone version (tactics). Thanks for playing!

  • Best RPG ever, hands down. Definitely one of the best music scores in the series(FFX also is near to my heart). Thank you for posting!

  • Es tan genial, tan hermoso...

    Dices que el arreglo lo hiciste tú? Crees que pudieras pasar las partituras? (si hiciste, claro). Si no es mucha molestia.

  • Good lord. This is far to amazing, i thank you so much for taking the time to make these. This is such an underrated game when it comes to people making arrangements for it. the tracks are amazing and by far my favorite in the series. Hello i just want square-enix to make a true sequel to this game or another FFT that plays more like this and less like the advance series (not that they are not great in their own right).

  • um........if you are playing with your eyes closed, which looks like it, then you are absolutely amazing!!!! actually even if u werent it still is lol

  • I still play the PS1 version, i love this game

  • Officially my favorite game ever.

    Oh the nostalgia.

  • Amazing, just amazing. Tactics is my favorite game also.

  • Just i dont have words... is perfect :Q........, tnx for this video. /kneel.

    No cabe duda Capi, que agrega pocos favoritos, pero cuando agrega uno lo hace con estilo. :)

  • Amazing!

    FFT is my favourite game of all time too, even the psone version lol, and of course the soundrtrack is the best too, great job on this video grats! :)

    Ojala y pronto saquen el FFT Online! hehehe

  • The psone version is the one I know and love so dear too! And thanks so much for your appraisal! Cheers!

  • @acmarcan Dude next time you do something similar. can you throw in Trisections? 

  • *picking jaw up off the ground* WOW, just WOW.

  • great rendition! and i so agree that FFT's score is much better than any other one except maybe FFXII...but then again that's the same guys.

  • Wonderfull! :)

  • Excellent job. FFT is my favorite game of all time.

  • Awesome!

  • Yeah wow that was amazing. It must feel so cool to play the music, you can envision the scenes of battle in your head...As everyone else has mentioned, this is one of my favorite games ever. So epic with such a sweeping soundtrack.

  • Did you learn this by ear because this is AMAZING

  • Indeed I did. And thank you :)

  • @acmarcan I wish I had ran into your earlier, I actualy had the Piano Midi's. Which you could of converted into sheets. It's incredible music, so years ago I tried to get the piano arrangements... even though I don't play one. I on't know why. I was compelled by the beauty fo this soundtrack to do so despite owning the OST.

  • you don't even know how much can i respect you for making this, FFT is my favorite game ever , and i never found sheet music to play the musics.. i have the same original sound track as you have on the piano, but can't find sheet music =/ i think i could lost myself in to it, if found them

  • and much respect in return to you for appreciating this amazing game to the extent that you do. glad you enjoyed it!

  • is there a way for you to post a quality mp3 of your FFT compilation? this is beyond incredible, i nearly cried listening to it. Thank you so much, your talent is out of control.

  • I second that - this would be a perfect track to listen to on a long drive somewhere.

  • this video is incredible... thank you

  • i personally agree with posters note, FFT is my favorite game EVER, and the compositions are so incredibly beautiful... this game really made my child hood and to this day i still play it

  • i literally teared up cause me and my bro played this when we were younger.... RIP Gavin

  • Wonderful job.

  • Eating fish and chips and listening to this. Go England!

  • Thanks for posting this - I really like the music to this game.

  • great, bout to go replay war of the lions. again. thanks for taking like 80+ plus hours of my life...

    seriously, fucking awesome dude

  • hihi^^ amazing work acmarcan sadly from one of the best soundtrack in finalfantasy history your the only one who did a medley of this quality on youtube i greatly appreciate your work i like the power and intencity you perform the song whit

    keep up the good work ^^

  • FFt had one of the best story lines and music IMO out of all the final fantasy series even though i know alot of people didnt enjoy the gameplay because they didnt take the time to figure out how addicting it can get

  • lol it would take me 30 minutes to get one of my characters figured out so many choices

  • Awesome, your very talented.  Kudos

  • bravo! my favorite song was always the one where you fight izlude

  • amen, incredible job! I love that song, it's called with Izlude, it's called "Under the Stars".

  • tHANK YOU VERY MUCH

  • 9:22 Data Screen was one of my favorite themes in FFT. Wish the whole song was done ;p. Great job, though.

  • dont your hand feel pain? keep tapping the notes that hard for 9 minutes?

  • Excellent arrangements. I noticed you dip your wrists low when you play; are you self-taught?

  • Wicked awesome mate. Amazing you were able to figure out all the different tunes.

  • thanks man, glad you liked it! it wasn't necessarily easy but i'm happy with how it turned out. cheers.

  • so is there any sheet music available

    either way good job

  • nah, its all in the old noggin

  • pitty...

  • 1:18 ramza's theme

  • Good stuff friend. keep it up!

  • MOH GIMME MOH

  • o.o that is amazing.

  • wow it's the first time i ever felt amazed wow... my eyes widened and i loved it i faved it i wish i could play like you

  • I can't agree with you more that

    FFT is the best game of everything especialy replayability!

    but you said this is the thing you can do for the game you love

    yes! you can do it because you have ability to do it you are really good at piano

    but I don't

    so

    i beg you please. write some sheet music and shere to someone that love FFT too, please your regard.

  • bkn of corse

  • I really like what you're doing with this, but the only problem is that if you haven't played the game, and don't know the score at least semi-well, I imagine one could get lost listening to it. Regardless, five stars.

  • Well this video is clearly tailored towards true fans of the game. After all, FFT is a fairly 'cult classic' status game, so most people who find this video are quite familar with the game to begin with. If I wanted to appeal to the general pop vg masses, I'd simply shit out yet another FF7 compilation like everyone else is doin. Cheers.

  • fucking amazing video i came!!!!! 5/5 favorited i've been looking for something like this!

  • What is that book that you used called?

  • Astonishing.

    Especially because its original.. ridiculously jealous right now :).

    FFT has always been my favorite soundtrack.

    My favorite part of @ 5:30 excellent immitation of the real thing! Rivals with the original.

    Do you have the soundtrack on CD? Are you taking requests?

    IF SO: I challenge you to try

    fast: "Battle on Bridge" or "Tension"

    slower: "Antidote" or "Trisection"

    If not oh well, but thanks anyways for this, brought back some good memories with one of my fav games. Easy 5star

  • thanks a lot! channel that jealousy into motivation to finish my work that i started here haha. epic cheers to you!

  • I think Tactics has the best soundtrack too, and the best game ever ;) 5/5

  • very nice!!

  • Amazing!

    ★★★★★★

  • honestly, great music.. super epic and dramatic! i loved it. i played this game like 6 six through.

  • same here, the replayability is insane. luckily, there's a kickass soundtrack to listen to while you're playing through it six or more times. which is what i tried to capture here on my piano. :)

  • wow i want copy sheet :)))))))

  • Aweeeeee!!!

    Good Job!

  • I think u made final fantasy more enjoyaboul <3 thanks a ton man a mp3 would be grate to =)

  • Glad I stumbled upon this. I was kind of curious how songs with such a great array of instruments would yield themselves to piano orchestration. I have to say I am very impressed with this composition.

  • Appreciate it, thanks! I tried to do them justice, my friend. Glad you stumbled onto it too :D

  • great work!

  • This is great... looking forward to seeing the final product of your arrangement! Thank you for the cool music!

  • beautiful and was lovely to listen to, thank you!

  • can you give me a copy of the music sheet of this song...

    i also want to play it in my piano..

    because i like palying my final fantasy tactics on playstation.. please send me one..

  • no sheet music to speak of, sorry. original arrangement, so its all in the ol noggin.

  • I'm usually not too impressed with fan renditions of music, but you sir are the best playing the best! Excellent job!

  • Thanks a lot man. Glad you liked the compilation.

  • Got a clean mp3 of this?

  • love this Final fantasy song..but Aeris Theme's my Fav..>XD...But nice playing...XD

  • I love your performance so much!!

    And I am agree with you, to me, FFT OST is the best ever.
