Now taking commissions! Please email info@samyungmusic if you'd like me to create music for you and all other enquiries Hey guys, I recently put out a poll asking what kind of content you'd like me to create and video game covers seemed to be a pretty popular suggestion! Let me know below what games you'd like me to cover!
If there's one piece of music that inspires me more than anything, it's the whole opera sequence by Nobuo Uematsu from FFVI. It still amazes me to this day, and I really adore Celes' theme as the recurring motif through the sequence. It's one of the most beautiful pieces of music out there. I wanted to create an arrangement that borrowed from a few different versions of this song, and hope you guys enjoy it! (Please let me know if you know who drew the wallpaper and I will credit).

Such a Wonderful interpretation of Celes' theme.
One of the Best Characters in the Entire Franchise in my eyes.

[@Spaced92]

VI was before my time so I don't truly love everything about the game, but Celes is really genius. Terra is the hero, everyone loves her, she's always surrounded by people that thinks she's the most important, and then there's this lady who was also one of the top 3 in the Empire as well but faces rejection, mistrust, at best she's a replacment for an opera singer and a dead girl before she tries to end it in a world where she's by herself, then deciding she won't give up hope again before she finds her friends. Also fuck Locke.

[@nathank2289]

@@Spaced92 All wrong. Terra isn't the hero shes one of the three protagonists, five if you count the brothers. Celes does give up and even attempts to kill herself out of grief, only regaining hope when she finds evidence Locke survived (in the cannon version). Though she does indeed fuck Locke but only after she helps him get over his guilt of getting his fiance killed.

YES I AM IN LOVE😍😍😍i’ve loved this song for years. I’m going into my final year of my music bachelor, majoring in composition, and I’m going to include my own arrangement of this song that I hope to sing for my final project...long story short, it’s really nice to open my youtube tonight and see this:) You did amazing, as you always do with your arrangements!

[@KataNasMusic]

This is beyond gorgeous, you're truly gifted man. Please keep sharing your music with us!

[@vagrantender]

Thank you for this. Final Fantasy VI is easily my second favorite final fantasy behind Final Fantasy IX.

[@SamYungOfficial]

Hey, thanks so much for checking it out! Means a lot to me :)

[@beckyhatfield1674]

The theme from Zanarkan is my favorite from FF 10, but really the whole series is fabulous. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@SamYungOfficial]

Definitely one of my favourites as well! I grew up playing FFX! Such a good game. ❤️

[@jonnyjazzz]

To Zanarkand is my favourite FF song to play on piano.

[@sabin.rene.figaro]

@@jonnyjazzzYes I always listen to that theme - especially piano version!

[@cerisedaemon]

I got goosebumps! Celes is my fav FF6 character, and you did her theme justice. So beautiful!

[@izzyrov5814]

That was absolutely beautiful, I'm crying 😭 Celes is my favorite FF character, and her theme just gets to me each time...

[@xAoriki]

Oh my goodness…I screamed! FFVI is my absolute favorite game and now seeing you’ve made a cover of Celes theme just sounds amazing!! Thank you so much for this and hope you can do more VI songs.

[@Wills.musicpage]

Man... This is as close to perfect as it gets... Celes' theme has always been dear to me... Thank you for this arrangement....

[@dustint379]

This is incredible. My fave character in my fave game. Crying

[@petermerritt4618]

I am making this into a music box! If I capture that feeling, I can't wait!

[@celes42017]

Celes is the embodiment of who I am right not. I’m struggling emotionally and physically, but I have to stay strong for others. Beautiful rendition of her theme

[@briancassey9735]

Absolutely magical

[@Rakoona]

beautifully done! I would have kept some of the bits from the original song though at 2:17 where there are the 3 background notes repeating, it only appeared once there!

[@icecrash]

Thank you for making this.. Our favorite version of the song

[@redbootflowerjules]

This is what I was looking for. Thank you! Already added it to my ff playlist on Spotify☺️

[@koutaro208]

This being only 8k views is sacrilege.

[@lyrakx]

Breathtaking...

[@lengthor5152]

This is just fantastic... Thanks for this 😌 ff6 the best one for me.

[@RocketPropelledGuy]

Of the dozens (maybe more?) of arrangements this one is my favorite.

[@r0bz0rly]

beautiful, love the little nod to aria di mezzo carattere at the start there too

[@sickflow_makes]

wow this was incredible

[@vehiclesofpeace]

Beautiful music

[@fishy071]

Nice beautiful playing!

[@RIFLEman888]

Love you’re music

[@manuelcastellanosjr4929]

Well done!

[@shawnhenderson2091]

Everyone thinks its Terra's story that steals your heart but for me it was always Locke and Celes

[@xxx_jim_the_reaper_xxx]

To me, the whole plot revolves around Locke. If it weren't for him, Terra would've been lost in the cave, Edgar wouldn't take action, and Sabin wouldn't leave the mountains to help with the resistance.

[@Cassiano122]

Brilliant!

[@michaelkappes8226]

I'm not crying -- you're crying!

[@divinesoul1987]

Any JRPG of your liking!

[@jonathenweise6840]

Dear friends

[@zhiruo7675]

Try 1.25 playback speed. It feels entirely different.

[@thrashmantim]

They did so much with 16 bits.

[@yampaamvs]

Aerith’s theme too, please🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@SamYungOfficial]

Thanks for checking out! There’s already one in my channel from a few years back. Enjoy! 🙂

[@toroyung7986]

Beautiful Sam, bought a tear to my eye, so proud of you 😊
