My favorite part of this piece is that it feels like it tries to sound triumphant and it just slips away, fading back into sorrow. Complete masterpiece.
I sincerely thank you for this elucidation, I've been overwhelmed with the unexplainable emotional impact this piece has on my soul, and you did it full justice!
Absolutely beautiful job with this!! 🤩 Roxas’s theme is one of my favorite pieces of video game music ever and you nailed it like “nobody” else could 😅
I'll write this in english so everyone can understand. This cover is so perfect that when I close my eyes I can see the fight between Roxas and Sora in KH2. Some parts of the cover just make me imagine some of the attacks Roxas does and the intensity of those because of the character's story. It's truly a masterpiece full of meaning for me.
Thank you so much for your nice comment Marc!! So glad you can remember those moments while listening to my cover, the KH soundtrack is so powerful ;_;
I know it shouldn't, but it makes me happy when you mention having trouble getting the perfect take. It's so easy to watch your videos and think it all comes very easily and naturally to you when you play. Knowing the effort it takes even to someone as talented as you fills me with motivation to keep playing. Thank you!
Haha thank you André! Glad it fills you with motivation, I normally spend around 1,5 hours recording different takes, I then save my best 3-4 takes and then select my favourite one amongst them, for this cover I spend around 3 hours recording non stop haha
Man talk about a forgotten classic from the Piano Collections. It’s hard to believe that it’s been a decade since this album was released. You did an superb job playing this piece. This reminds me of your older videos such as One Winged Angel and Monstro. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Ow thank you so much!! Playing some clean arpeggios wasn't that hard, playing all of the arpeggios in the take was really a challenge haha, I was so happy when I did it! c:
i'm trying to learn how to play piano on my own and it's sooo difficult... i can play just a few songs with two hands, but your videos inspire me 🥺🥺 you're great!
Words can't describe how tough this piece is and it's arguably only behind Concert Paraphrase of Dearly Beloved in the collections when we compare difficulty levels. Great job anyways!
The recoded version of this theme is so good and your cover makes it even better question? How does one perfect what's already beautiful ? cause you have done it with this cover
@@MoisesNieto gracias a tí por hacer semejante arte con el piano, te mereces lo mejor. Yo todavía lloro escuchando la primera versión que hiciste de Vector of the heavens
Damn the Roxas fight was hard. But i couldn't feel satisfied like when i beat Demyx or Xaldin, because in the end i felt like i pushed roxas away, rejected him for never being supposed to exist.
Amazing work! Keep it up, Moisés! May I suggest: Dog Breath Variations by Frank Zappa? A bit different I know but I've always wanted to hear it on piano. :) have a wonderful day edit: variations autocorrected to vibrations oops lol
ERES UNA BESTIA Solo voy a hacerte una pregunta, ¿que sientes cuando tocas ests cancion y segun la vas tocando ves que suena igual? Porque yo toco una parte de la de Riku y me siento súper orgulloso, necesito saber que sientes tu
Muchas gracias Javiii!! 😭💙 Pues son muchas emociones mezcladas, al final te dejas llevar y estás tan concentrado que no piensas en nada en concreto, pero por dentro te sientes agitado, como con un fuego ardiendo que tienes que controlar (si te dejas llevar demasiado, todo se desmorona (?)). Al final te sientes orgulloso más o menos del resultado, pero al menos yo cuando grabo no dejo de pensar (después de grabar y escucharme) en todo lo que podría haber tocado mejor. Cuando toco sin grabar estoy mucho más relajado obvio, la cámara y el micro imponen mucho 😂
@@MoisesNieto Eso es totalmente cierto, la camara y el micro... Bufff Ademas que lo de controlarse es verdad, es como que muestras tranquilidad pero por dentro no estas tranquilo jajajajaja yo la verdad que siempre cuando toco algo y suena igual que en el juego hago ALAAAAA!!! Y ya me lio, y pierdo el hilo😂😂 Algun dia llegare a tocar algo asi y te mandare un video de agradecimiento tocando😌
I don't know haha, if that person cannot play the piano then I would totally recommend starting with a different piece (or doing an easy piano arrangement of Roxas Theme, definitely not this one!)
I don't feel confident enough to work on an huge arrangement like that haha, but I'd love Square Enix to release a KH3 Piano Sheet Music book, if they do it I'd try to play songs from it ;_;
Do you remember how much time it took you to get it done like that? And how much of it is actually played by notes ? Because I'm always wondering if it's actually possible to play that one by sheets :) @hollowriku
I studied this one for about 1-2 weeks! I always record reading the sheet music, I never fully memorize my covers but I guess it's just a mixing of reading + memorizing, I need some visual queues to know what to play next, but all those arpeggios are obviously super automatic for me, I can't read them note by note haha
Hey hey! What piano do you have anz how much did it cost you? I use to be obsessed with learning how to play, but when I graduated high school, I sorta stopped practicing. I recently realized that it was because my dingy $200 keyboard doesnt sound a tenth as good as the grand that was in my old high school's band room. I'd always practice on my keyboard to be able to play on the grand, but now I only have my keyboard. I'm pretty sure that my motivation to learn and practice will hit me if I were to use an instrument near yours quality. I can play thos piece, at a sporadic tempo 😞🗿🤧, but it sounds COMPLETELY DIFFERENT, since my keyboard doesnt even have weighted keys. It's just disheartening to play on since I know i could sound so much better. Sorry for rambling, A TON, I may be a tad tipsy right now and everyone's passed out and I dont have anyone to talk to atm lmao. Ahh.. if you read this, truly, thank you for, not only reading this, but for continously posting yourself playing piano. I truly enjoy listening to you play. Have a good day or night, or even evening. 😊
I just noticed the description 🗿 Regardless, thanks lol. Your playing always gives me inspiration, even though it doesn't last long since I expect to grow at the same rate that i grew when i was first playing. I know that progression is slow and steady and it'll come, slowly, from practicing everyday, but, BAH! Idk. I need a better sound lol. Idk why I'm still rambling again. Aughhhh I lied about being tipsy, im pretty drunk, im just waiting to throw up again, since I almost drowned in throw up a little bit agoooooooooooooo, I have just one more round in meeeeeeeee. Augh, your playing is so beautiful. Thanks, again.
Lol thank you so much for your long comment haha! My piano is a Kawai GL 10 baby grand, it's around 10k dollars! My previous piano was a Hosseschruereds upright piano that was about 3k dollars c: Yeah I would recommend you get a better keyboard, it can definitely be a digital one but weighted keys should be a must :P I hope you're able to get a new one! I'm so glad you enjoy listening to my covers, I hope you feel better now c: See you around! ✨
Oh true! I've just updated the link, it's just an Amazon link where you can buy the book, unfortunately it's an official book so I cannot share it for free 😅
