A nice tune from Xenogears, composed by Yasunori Mitsuda. Xenogears, like most of Mitsuda's great works, was not released in Europe which really bugs me. I had to download a ROM on my computer and play it on an emulator, which really sucks. But the audio was quite good, and the music is some of the best I've heard.

I probably should have played it one octave down, but the sheet music disagrees. I learned all the notes by heart relatively quickly (about an hour), although it is a very easy piece to learn. The bass is almost the same throughout. I realise now that I should have played the treble a little louder, but it's not a big deal. I had some trouble reading the sheet music as the print was quite weak, so there may be some unintentional errors. I did the last chord in the recording quite crappy.

  • how long have you been playing the piano and when did you start to really feel like you greatly improved?

  • I played a little when I was a kid but don't remember much from that time. It wasn't until I was around 17 that I began taking it seriously. It took approximately 6 months before I felt confident in my playing style and I began improving. It required a lot of motivation and discipline though.

  • ur being too hard on urself with the "mistakes"

    i think it was played beautifully

    and yeah, i learned this in like an hour too, its a beautiful piece

  • I'm glad you liked it :)

  • Im learning this also at the moment. My print was also bad, but a bit of photoshop cured my eyes. By the looks of it, its the same version. My problem was that I didn't notice the small 8va sign at the upper left corner and since I only noticed it after this video you can guess why I didn't learn in only an hour. Damn, now that was some hard playing... 0_0'

  • Haha, I completely understand. I'm assuming you got the sheets from Square Enix Music Online.
