    Am I kidding myself, or is this not the most beautiful rendition of this arrangement? This is my new personal favorite! I hope you enjoyed this interpretation as much as I did and still am enjoying.
    If you enjoyed it and hit that LIKE button, that’ll really help me out. And did you know my motivation comes from your COMMENTS?

      Hi Mr. Richard Yang! Sorry for I kept you hanging. Just been busy outside and barely had time to open my UA-cam. I had just noticed you uploaded this vid and the reply you replied me back, knowing that it must have been my inspiring virtuostic UA-camr pianist!!! AAAAA been low-key waiting you know! Because I learned from you and played it before, so I relate. 😭😭😭😭😭👏👏👏👏. Don't worry about your ears. You've got good perfect pitch, although the tempo (for me) it's a bit fast (for trodding on the waters). But who am I to judge, you taught me and I love you to play!!!!😆😆👏👏😭😭😭

    I'm not much of a Kingdom Hearts fan but this is beautiful. Not only is the piece itself fantastic, but the way you played it definitely shows a lot of passion for it. I thought the style sounded familiar but then I saw another comment mentioning Final Fantasy XV and it all makes sense!
    And the small reprise of Dearly Beloved near the end (the only KH track I'm really familiar with) is soooo good...

    Amazing performance, as always! The garritan CFX does a great job in capturing all the emotion you put into playing this song. The phrasing is great and very important in this performance. I like how at 2:10 you make the middle section stand out. And at repeat around 2:20 it sounds slightly softer. Definitely not an amateur! A professional indeed!
    I had to edit comment, and it removed the heart :(. I accident said doesn’t instead of does.

      @ I put $50 on YT only because it takes a cut. I normally charge $40/hour when booked directly. But I don’t have new openings for weekly students.

I've noticed you have been using the Garritan VST a lot, would it be the one you recommended the most? Would love to know your opinion. Thank you and keep up the great videos :)

    • @RichardYangPiano
      @RichardYangPiano  Рік тому +1

      I use Garritan CFX for the final conversion because it sounds most gorgeous. But the software itself feels too unstable for live feedback. The program chokes a lot and sometimes takes seconds before being normal again. So for live feedback, I use PianoTeq. Which has “modeled” sound instead of “sampled” sound. Installation is much smaller, not processor intensive. Although it doesn’t sound nearly as good, it’s much better than the stock sound of the Yamaha N1X.
