For sure one of the best renditions of the theme on RU-vid! Virtuose playing, fantastic instrumentation and it generally adds a lot of depth to this rather simple theme. I would have loved a higher tempo though, even though this slower version has its charme as well.
This is so beautiful it makes me sad I stopped playing the piano. I even had a violin partner at hand. The thing is that my piano teacher insisted on always playing old stuff. True, many classical pieces sound great, but after the 200th piece by Bach you've heard it all. At the time I could easily have played this piano melody, but my lessons were just exhausting, annoying and boring. It took away all the fun and fascination of playing. To any parent whose child wants to play the piano or any other instrument: Of course, some pieces that are advised by the teacher are necessary for learning the technique, but insist that your child gets to choose what to play. Otherwise they are going to hate it and you will take away precious minutes and precious motivation.
You definitely just earned a subscriber! Awesome performance and arrangement. Do you know of anywhere I can download or purchase the the sheet music for my colleges chamber music society?
I have listened to alot of FF7 OSTs and renditions. Must say that this arrangement and interpretation is immaculate. The 5 musicians fill up enough auditory space, and avoid compromising the clarity of each part. Wonderful. Bravo!
