    It's so funny how many of us weren't interested in symphony music until we heard Genshin music 😆

    I also appreciate the camerawork in these performances, how they focus on instruments that are prominent at certain passages, showing us what the instrument is and how it sounds. Makes it way more interesting for someone who doesn't know them, too.

      True! Mad respect to the editor too who made sure they are featured that way they should be. 😊

    Genshin symphony performances are like no other. They integrate cultural themes and modern orchestra music like no other and I always look forward to the music in every new expansion. Please also react to the fontaine, inazuma and liyue live symphony performances too! U can search for:

    19:55 this specific hammered dulcimer is a 'Santur' originated from Iran. Ney is also from the same region.
    I'm just really glad to see so many professional musicians in different areas of expertice getting inspired by genshin music.

    Sumeru is a fantasical magical region in Genshin. There are two subregions in Sumeru: The Forest and the Desert. This symphony only just plays the Forest theme. There are many more themes in the Desert.

    • @Hayasssa

      Actually the second one is the desert version of the battle theme. It has a more prominent flute and duduk, which the forest does not.

    • @aethernity8270
      @aethernity8270 День тому +1

      This one is for desert shamshir with Egyptian flute Ney and Forest is Stream with Indian flute Bansuri

    I would recommend you, Melomue, to listen to the Fatui Harbingers' themes: Tartaglia, La Signora, and Scaramouche boss battle themes. These themes are heavily opera related

    • @Melomue
      @Melomue  День тому +4

      Yes, I'm actually currently working on a video essay on Scaramouche's music 😊 will post it when I'm done~!

    Hi Melomue, I''m a genshin music enthusiast and I wanted to recommend the Genshin Impact - Eternal Sun, Eternal Want Album, because the tracks in it are unique, my absolute favorite tracks from that Album are: Shaping the Struggle; Tumaini washa moto; All the Pretty Courses; Soothing of Soul and Sand.
    But there are many more tracks to discover, so please see this only as a recommendation. :)

    • @Melomue
      @Melomue  День тому +1

    Great video. This is the second video I've seen featuring this friend of yours. I am sure he is a great composer and person, but man... is he not up for making this kind of video. 90% of the things he says about is "what he knows" and personal anecdotes; absolutely nothing to do with subject matter. Maybe get him to be more into talking about the subject matter. You would go "Oh I like this part of the music" and he would reply with "Oh double reed bla bla bla". Almost as if he wasn't listening to the music at all. Not hating on him. Just honest feedback. I don't click on a video about Genshin music to hear about his personal stories. They would be fine if there were related to the subject.
