    OH HEY!!! 😍very honored you played my arrangement, LOVED THIS!!! haha good on ya for changing that Bb13 back to augmented with that F# at 2:40...lol I was just SO TICKLED that the regular Bb13 with the F natural made it sound kinda like old school Uematsu Melodies of Life so I made the change lol, but when I first started listening to your vid that was the FIRST thing I thought, like, I wonder if he's gonna change that back to a Bbaug13, it's definitely spicier that way lol besides being what was originally sung. Exquisite job as always!!!

      Is piano arrangement something that can be learned, or just by experimentation? I used to improvise hymn accompaniment, nowhere near any level of true excitement. I wonder if it’s too late for me. Jazz, for example, is definitely way too late. Nothing makes sense there.

      Thanks for listening to your own arrangement haha. I thought you might have misheard the melody so I just changed it back, and also accidentally changed the chord as well to outline the melodic notes, but it ended up sounding ok in the end anyway. I like that you gave the arrangement room to sound epic, as opposed to other piano covers that I've heard which were just soft and understated, which is nice for a sweet romantic version, but I feel is missing the power of the original vocal rendition.

      @@rach3master When I first heard this interpretation, I haven't heard the FF16 soundtrack yet, but the portion corresponding to the vocal portion standed out to me. After hearing the soundtrack multiple times, I realized how well you have adapted the harmony and the atmosphere to the piano. What a great experience. All the more respect to you.

    Your performance is wonderful. I haven’t played ff16 so I don’t know what to make of this piece. So much of gaming is the world building, the characters, the story and the emotional connection to this multimedia platform. So hearing this is very different than hearing your FF15 performances, because I did play that game. Thank you for sharing this and hope all is well with you.

    Did you like the NV10 you used to play in older videos? Did you find that it had some major negatives that could have deterred you from buying a digital/hybrid that expensive? Was the SK sound realistic? I already use VSTs since they sound better than what digital pianos come with, but do you think dropping $19,000+ on a newer NV10 one day would be worth it for the grand action feel since just getting an acoustic wouldn’t be possible. 👀

      A few cardioid mics at close range pointing into the piano, some omnidirectional mics a few feet away, and a large diaphragm condenser mic under the piano.
