@@nicogalax The materia system is very easily breakable at the end of the game. If you think it was hard then you weren't setting up your materia right.
@@archagenteverlasting1239 yeah but I didn't use a guide so I went blind, I managed to defeat him thx to all the items I used but still, it was fun though
The goosebumps are real, no matter which version you're listening to, be it the original, orchestrated, piano solo or the church organ. Love your interpretation on this wonderful yet villainous song here.
Oh my! this is absolutely perfect, my piano professor and instructor played a long time ago this theme, but... you have that special thing in how you play every single note in this piece and is majestic!!!
Wowww thank you! Honestly I'm thinking to recover this one because I know I can do it better. But I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Makes the decision to recover it just a little bit harder :)
Wow you likes classical music and video game /movie music like me..... I think you got me ^^ I wish i could play so good like you but i am still a pretty new piano student. Greatings from germany.
You're so sweet, thank you Noel! Keep practicing and working hard. You'll never be sorry you did. I hope you'll stick around to enjoy some more game music, I'm really glad you like it!
Best boss theme ever. I ony ever fought Sephiroth in KH, but even as an optional side boss he was still the most powerful boss in the game, and the presentation was on point. That music instilled fear in me for sure. 👌
I've always loved Mr. Uematsu's music above all else. A master to my own eyes on the videogame musical composition. As an avid metal / classical / videogame music aficionado like myself, I thought I'd never find anyone on this earth able to do faithful cover compositions good enough to match his master skills, but now I've come across you on youtube and seen a couple of your covers, I must say you have the skills and passion to play alongside him on the same celestial level! Your music is far from regular piano play, it's an art in its purest form, the tempo and fluidity you stroke those keys with is definitely something which I myself would give a kidney or a pinky finger for a tenth of! (Then again without a pinky finger I wouldn't be able to play that well either way :) ) And this One-Winged Angel is a total masterpiece, here I can see easily how playing the piano is children's play for you! How I envy your skills. i wish I'd play a hundredth of what you play. I've always wanted to learn to play the piano expertly but unfortunately I have no energy or time or means to, nowadays. I'm glad there are people like you who in turn present us which such magnificent art of the musical pieces we love! Final Fantasy music and a few more RPG's have always been my reference for the perfect music (I can listen to Final Fantasy music regardless of my mood, it always fits whatever mood I'm in). I'm on a spree of listening to your covers right now and always eager to whichever song I see next on the next song suggestions. Have you ever considered playing Chrono Trigger /Chrono Cross songs? There are quite a few that I personally think match Final Fantasy's general mood! I would so very much like to hear you play "The Sealed Door" and "Scars Left By Time"! :D By the way, perhaps the best way to know how to interpret this song was to listen to the "Advent" version Advanced (not the regular one), from the movie, and also the original videogame version! Those two combined in my opinion who provide the best apex of its ambient! Also of course the Distant Worlds version is great, but it is, by itself, already another interpretation :P You're a musical goddess, thank you for existing Kara! :D
Kara, you just melted my face off--and I mean that in the most praising, pleasant way possible--my jaw increasingly agape on its way down until it at last culminated in a :O expression before falling completely off, to the floor...figuratively! Well ok in reality it was more like immediate smiles and joy haha. This is definitely unique from all the other covers and arrangements I've heard, but that is far from a bad thing--I thoroughly enjoyed it! I mean, here I am listening to it for like the VII'th time already...I'm not sure if it was always there, but I like the little waltz part haha, and that ending :O You said to have a good day, and this right here made it!
Thank you so much, your comments are......for lack of a better word...incredible haha. Yeah the waltz part is so cute, and lasts only a couple measures out of nowhere! Really clever and creepy at the same time. :) Thank you again for ALL your kind words from the very start. They mean a lot!!
haha I'm just glad you are a good sport about it, sometimes I get carried away XD I hope they don't ever come off as sarcasm though, they are not. I really love your renditions
Great job, Kara! I sang the Latin lyrics from the OST to this since I know them by heart hahaha. The Sephiroth battle is so ridiculous-his supernova attack that destroys multiple planets (over and over again every time he uses it lol) is unable to kill your own characters. I love video games and how they don't make sense sometimes lol.
you would definitely have more of an appreciation for the piece if you played the game, especially the character this is written for.. never the less it was an incredible performance by you! Uematsu made these games great with the amazing scores he composed.. it wouldn't have been the same without the music! Such nostalgia listening to this!
I grew up playing the games so listening to it on a PS1 with horrible horrible audio ports to this is amazing. There were only a few parts i heard that were not on time or didnt sound quite right to me. still tho 10/10 I absolutely love this!
Thank you, I've heard a couple people say it's "unique" and I wonder what they mean by that! Maybe I play it a little more elegantly than most....which I'm not sure is a good thing HAHA. But again, thank you Max :) I hope you'll like my Disney cover coming tomorrow!
Thank you very much! It was a tough one to do on the piano because it doesn't have as much of an intense feel as the original or an orchestrated version. But it was fun to play and I think it turned out nicely! thank you again for watching! :)
oh god so intense! I love how you didn't play the game and still felt all the power of this song to the point of finishing it the way you did! you gotta play the remake one for sure, the story is amazing and Sephiroth is one of the best villains in final fantasy :)
My favorite memories of playing the Final Fantasy series has always been the music. You are a piano playing goddess! Thank you for making these videos. 😍
My compliments, I like the smaller channels and some new talent once a while. You play very good, I like your touch and the sound of your piano is so beautiful!!!
Thank you very much! After I won a competition for Final Fantasy XIV, I decided this was going to be my niche, and it's been such a fun journey so far! I hope it won't end soon :)
Now that I can listen to this in its entirety, I can confirm that this is a stunning rendition. A great way to start my day this morning thank you Kara.
Thank YOU Matthew! You know as well as I do that it's the LISTENERS that are our inspiration to continue what we do. Thank you for watching, and I always enjoy reading your comments!
You are sooooo perfect! Emotion...real communication and so every note so clear...wow! Big hug from Mexico. Would love to sing "Answers" while you play...I'm really willing to if you want.
Congratulations! IMHO the best interpretation of this piece on UA-cam. I spent whole afternoons listening to different versions and always found something, that feels off. But your classical approach gives a whole new feeling to this masterpiece, fitting this beautiful Steinway perfectly! Those nearly overly short hits combined with the perfect dynamics suit the classical feeling, the piece just has to have, in a magical way, whilst underlining the the evil spirit and march-like character. You inspired me to have another view on this piece, as I am learning it now myself. Thank you very much for this performance! Of course I subbed, I really admire the way you work with that piano and I am a little jealous ;)
Wow that's saying a lot, thank you for this. Even so, I still feel I'm missing something as well with this piece. I had a passion to learn it though, and perhaps my classical side makes the beauty stand out. I believe Uematsu would've wanted it interpreted classically. :) Also love the "poeticness" of your comment hahaha!
You're welcome! Maybe it doesn't sound as "badass" as you would expect Sephiroths theme, but this interpretation feels like something "whole" and "complete" unlike the other versions I heard or play myself lol. The worst is actually the official recording. In this point I agree with you. Mr. Uematsu's music does always have a classical touch, even played on 90's synths. I read somewhere of you planning to wait for the FFVII Remake. This project could take years to be finished and I'm sure, it won't be as good as the old game. One can't just remake FFVII :D Haha :D Playing the piano's got something of poetry just without words, so writing about it is poetic as well ;)
Hm, you got me thinking to just play the original VII instead. I thought for some reason that it already had a release date (although I don't follow these things hahah), but maybe I need to stop waiting!!
Haha, go ahead and enjoy this beautifull game! ;) I got one question though. Could you do a video on your usage of pedals? My pianos pedals have a really large angle I can use to dose the amount of effect and they are surprisingly sensitive. I tend to use too much pedal and would like to know, how you decide where to use sustain and how much!
Oh! I never think much about how I use the pedal to be honest. I think because it's mostly related to the ear, and just being a good listener. I can try to give some tips on my live stream tomorrow if you can make it ^^ but yes, because all pianos are different, the pedaling technique will be different on every piano you play. On my piano here at home, I use the soft pedal almost the entire time, because the piano is very big for the room it's in. But if I was in a big recital hall with a big, mellow sounding grand piano, I probably would use barely any soft pedal at all. :O
Heeeey! You DID it! I followed you you on IG but I had some problems with my account. I remember I requested this song. Amazing! Really amazing! Keep going. My daughter is gonna love this.
Aw thanks Fernando! I wish I had tagged you, I don't know how I missed it. I love that you're gonna show it to your daughter! Maybe it will inspire her to learn piano too, AND give her a love for Final Fantasy :D
Interessante, a introdução têm algumas pausas frustantes que trazem a sensação de loucura para música. Também gosto da sutileza e elegancia da passagem antes do encerramento. Parabém moça, seus dedos são mágicos.
Gday, I stumbled onto your video and am very happy I did. You're incredibly talented and very inspiring. Thank you for your energy while playing such a brilliant song. Keep up the good work
I was searching for video game piano themes and I found this, what an excellent combination: gorgeous girl and incredible piano skills! Awesome content for this quarantine . Greetings from Mexico!
Kara, this is an incredibly complex and difficult piece of music!! You seem to tackle it with relative ease thanks to your mastery and phenomenal technical prowess on those keys!! Concise, clear playing and that piano sounds fantastic!!! ~Jackie
Thank you so much! I REALLY need to rerecord this one- to be honest it's one of my LEAST favorites on my channel lol. But I had a hard time with it- it frustrated the living daylights out of me while recording XD someday I'll get it down!
Kara Comparetto I think you did a beautiful job....So difficult! Another pianist and friend out here, Dagmar Krug, tackled this also and said it was absolutely the most difficult! Still...Bravo 👏
Yes, she is quite good and also composes her own music. Very nice channel. In fact, we have such a wonderful community of musicians out here. When I first joined UA-cam, I never expected to meet so many amazing people out here. So glad I did it :-) Have a good night Kara! ~Jackie
@@KaraComparetto 4 years later and this still gives me such intense goosebumps. It moves me to tears! I make videos myself but they're more fanbased to games and shows I love but I totally support people's creativity. Is learning sheet music hard? I can't quite get it
That's so nice to hear! I am glad you think so. This one was hard for me, for some reason. I had a hard time getting it recorded. The biggest encouragement for me to keep going with this is all of you guys telling me how much you enjoy it. Thank you again so much!!
Let me know when you post One Winged Angel, I'd love to hear your interpretation! I'm sorry for my delay on my UA-cam channel, I am having a hard time juggling all of my social media pages D: Thanks so much for commenting!!
OK I finally found the right version of this Awesome composition. Aggressive, passionate, you certainly found the essence of this piece. The nugget of Truth that makes this a great work and you've captured it. Simply Outstanding!! Best rendition, bar none, and I've been listening a lot.
"One Winged Angel" is all about the drama, anger and despair Sephiroth feels during his character development during FFVII, as he [SPOILERS] finds out about his origin, what happened to his mother, and the plan to destroy the world using what remains of her. [/SPOILERS] Really good cover!
You're really good at this and I don't understand why you don't have more subscribers ... Would you ever consider doing other video games? Kingdom Hearts maybe?
Thank you so much for that! Actually I once got the music for the piece called Dearly Beloved from Kingdom Hearts. My brother said people would go crazy for it. Unfortunately it didn't speak much to me- I thought it was fairly repetitive compared to most of the Uematsu music I've played :( I don't know, maybe I need to give it another chance!
Well I understand where you're coming from but it is meant to be menu music so that's why it's repetitive there's some other really great kingdom hearts music such as the other promise and sora's sacrifice
Aw thank you for visiting and commenting! I know this reply is late, but your comment still means just as much to me. I hope you've been enjoying the last bits of fall down there!
6 years late to the party, but just wanted to say as a HUGE FF VII fan, don't worry, you've absolutely nailed the spirit of this song.
To be able to play this piece is definitely my ultimate goal as a pianist
I have that same goal! As well as the Carmina Burana poems. Lol
Damn that ending part is crazy, your reaction is like you just defeated sepiroth after a whole day of fighting
She did. She just conquered the piano version of Sephiroth. :)
Too bad he's easy
@@archagenteverlasting1239 he guy confused all my team and they started killing each other lol, no, he's not easy

Absolute fire.
The goosebumps are real, no matter which version you're listening to, be it the original, orchestrated, piano solo or the church organ. Love your interpretation on this wonderful yet villainous song here.
You are flippin' great. I"m making an indie game right now and you're performances are powering me through it.
Awesome!!!
Nobuo would be proud. Really is a shame your talent hasnt reached more people
How awesome to bring classical background to these feats of writing in amazing new styles. The piano is being reborn. And with such INCREDIBLE talent.
Omg the way she ends the song looks like she got hit with a taser, I love it so much
Yussssss! Now here's a piece that needs no description. The music speaks for itself. As always, very well played. Much love 👏👏👏
Thank you Cory!!
Kara Comparetto I could never. your playing is far too beautiful to go unappreciated! keep up the great work. much love 👊✊🤘
Oh my! this is absolutely perfect, my piano professor and instructor played a long time ago this theme, but... you have that special thing in how you play every single note in this piece and is majestic!!!
Wowww thank you! Honestly I'm thinking to recover this one because I know I can do it better. But I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Makes the decision to recover it just a little bit harder :)
For God's sake! She is unbelievably good at this. So talented.
Wow you likes classical music and video game /movie music like me.....
I think you got me ^^
I wish i could play so good like you but i am still a pretty new piano student.
Greatings from germany.
You're so sweet, thank you Noel! Keep practicing and working hard. You'll never be sorry you did. I hope you'll stick around to enjoy some more game music, I'm really glad you like it!
Love it! One of my favorite songs and played very well. Castlevania has some difficult sounding songs

That would be the opportunity of a lifetime! I did get to meet him in January, so much genius in him!! :D
I love how clearly you play. Even in very fast parts, every note is clearly accentuated.
That's one of the things I focus on most! It's why I love playing early classical music like Haydn and Mozart. Clean, clear lines :)
This has become my favorite One-Winged Angel rendition. Amazing job!
This is amazing. You're a phenomenal pianist. Thank you so much.

Hi Mrs. Comparetto :D this is Sophia, you play really awesome!
That emotional ending. Just you jumping put a smile on my face
Omg. One winged angel playing at steinway and sons.
I knew it was steinway from the first I heard it, keep up covering u just got a patron

Nice, clean music. No show, no bullshit. Just perfectly crafted sound. Thank you!
i like your use of petals in the beginning here. the best i've heard.
So good to hear, thank you for this!!
This makes me want to be a better musician. Holy crap, dude.
I grew up playing the games so listening to it on a PS1 with horrible horrible audio ports to this is amazing. There were only a few parts i heard that were not on time or didnt sound quite right to me. still tho 10/10 I absolutely love this!
Gotta say I rather enjoy watching/listening to you play, very good!
That was a very unique take at a fascinating song! Great job as usual.

So much from your own touch in this arrangement therefore I love it.
oh god so intense! I love how you didn't play the game and still felt all the power of this song to the point of finishing it the way you did! you gotta play the remake one for sure, the story is amazing and Sephiroth is one of the best villains in final fantasy :)
You play it so well, I'm jealous. I thought I was good you blew me away. I have this saved. I look forward to your other content
Hand position is so precise. I guess I'm still a bit if awe. You are definitely more than internet media

Absolutely stunning, this is amazing 👏
Cried when I finished the games FF7, 8,9, 10 between age 12 and 17. Now 31.
You should play 6 also
Now 34 and Sephiroth got in smash
Such sensitivity ! So subtle... Really amazing
to be able to listen to this is a luxury. thank you.

Thank YOU Derek for watching! I knew I had to have this one on my channel or I'd be missing something :)
I clearly love your interpretation.. I never finished ff7 myself per se but one winged angel is my all-time favorite
Never been disappointed by your uploads
omg I loaf this. I'm not close on fighting him and I haven't watched any spoilers but I heard the music and it's AMAZING! you did a great job
I've never fought him either, i bet it's such an incredible fight with this music! I can't wait for the remake to come out so I can play it :)
Kara Comparetto I'm playing the original but I'm stuck XD
superB! Amazing! dynamics are very Clear! salute!
Thank you Erich!!! :)

Interessante, a introdução têm algumas pausas frustantes que trazem a sensação de loucura para música.
Também gosto da sutileza e elegancia da passagem antes do encerramento.
Parabém moça, seus dedos são mágicos.
Espero que você não se preocupe com as pausas demais! Obrigado pelo elogio :)
Kara Comparetto Eu adorei as pausas. A frustação também é um importante elemento para ser dominado por um músico. Obrigado pela atenção. (' u ')y
Nicely done Kara, keep up the good piano work.
You really should play the game. It really is one of the greatest ever.
Beautiful! Best listened to pretty loud to convey the impact of those loud hits properly.
I LOVE the way this sounds on piano! Even more ominous than the original in some parts. Great job :)
Thanks! Really enjoy Nobuo's music and you played it so well.
I couldn't help but to jump to my feet when you started playing! Thank you for this! 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Gday, I stumbled onto your video and am very happy I did. You're incredibly talented and very inspiring. Thank you for your energy while playing such a brilliant song. Keep up the good work
Wow 😮
You're the perfect Classical Pianist.

Skills... love it... impressed
Damn! I love your interpretation at about 2:20, that part. To me, it gives new image to the song and Sephiroth in an interesting way. Good job!
Ah that part is so spooky!! Yes I agree :) Thank you for your nice comment!
I prefer the original of this but well done. Very well played and you're quite beautiful!
i was effraid in the start of the music i didn't recognize some parts , but when i heard since 1:20 i was reassured ☺
You did a very great job ♥
Hahah thank you!! :)
Arrepio sempre que venho aqui
You are truly magnificent. Such an inspiration!! I'm just teaching myself how to play the piano with my keyboard :)
Good luck to you! that's wonderful!
@@KaraComparetto 4 years later and this still gives me such intense goosebumps. It moves me to tears! I make videos myself but they're more fanbased to games and shows I love but I totally support people's creativity. Is learning sheet music hard? I can't quite get it
This is truly amazing. I really love it
That's so nice to hear! I am glad you think so. This one was hard for me, for some reason. I had a hard time getting it recorded. The biggest encouragement for me to keep going with this is all of you guys telling me how much you enjoy it. Thank you again so much!!
Kara Comparetto well I have to say you definitely earned my sub. The way you played it seemed so natural.
As usual, great production value and performance!!
Beautiful lady playing FF7 and Zelda OoT on piano - I hit like and subscribe.
I've heard many versions and I like yours the best. It's very clean.
Love the ending! It's the same way I felt when I first beat Sephiroth so many years ago!
Amazing
I love it and the game
Love the ending to this piece!
A Classic remastered! As good as the original! Congratulations! 👏👏👏
What a treat to listen to! Well played Kara =)
Can't wait to start learning this one myself, have another FF VII piece to post first though ;)
Let me know when you post One Winged Angel, I'd love to hear your interpretation! I'm sorry for my delay on my UA-cam channel, I am having a hard time juggling all of my social media pages D: Thanks so much for commenting!!
VERYYY NICEEEE !!! the finish blow was perfect!
OK I finally found the right version of this Awesome composition. Aggressive, passionate, you certainly found the essence of this piece. The nugget of Truth that makes this a great work and you've captured it. Simply Outstanding!! Best rendition, bar none, and I've been listening a lot.
That flourish at the end! 😻
I will never leave you sephiroth.
"One Winged Angel" is all about the drama, anger and despair Sephiroth feels during his character development during FFVII, as he [SPOILERS] finds out about his origin, what happened to his mother, and the plan to destroy the world using what remains of her. [/SPOILERS]
Really good cover!
Thank you Matt!!
thank you this was beautiful
Brilliant.
Thank you so much!!
Oh my God. You are beautiful, this is amazing
Wow thank you!! :D
You're really good at this and I don't understand why you don't have more subscribers ... Would you ever consider doing other video games? Kingdom Hearts maybe?
Thank you so much for that! Actually I once got the music for the piece called Dearly Beloved from Kingdom Hearts. My brother said people would go crazy for it. Unfortunately it didn't speak much to me- I thought it was fairly repetitive compared to most of the Uematsu music I've played :( I don't know, maybe I need to give it another chance!
Well I understand where you're coming from but it is meant to be menu music so that's why it's repetitive there's some other really great kingdom hearts music such as the other promise and sora's sacrifice
I'll definitely consider it, I hope to cover a lot of other game music besides Final Fantasy! :)
I might have been thinking of another song because that's not the song I was thinking it was
FRIEZA WILL SEARCH THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE LOOKING FOR YOU. YOU MUST RETURN. EARTH NEEDS A PROTECTOR.
That was fantastic!
Aw thanks Eddie!!
so awesome
Aw thank you for visiting and commenting! I know this reply is late, but your comment still means just as much to me. I hope you've been enjoying the last bits of fall down there!
just yes.
Solid transition to piano. Well done
Thank you very much, I have issues with this one but I'm also happy for so much nice feedback :)
