Rose Thorns - Battle with Aeldra / I Still Regret (from "Ikenfell") cello and piano cover

[@reggieisaac6909]

Sadly I've never heard of Ikenfell but now I'm looking it up. Individually, I love both of you. As a duet? Stellar and soul-replenishing. Cheers!

[@IsrafelCello]

Thank you so much!!

[@taehan_]

This is simply amazing. I was listening to your videos to sleep, when I was feeling down, and it made me really calm. I felt so much stronger and reinvigorated :)

[@mklachu]

Oh my goodness this is sooooo incredible, I got all the chills!!!

[@IsrafelCello]

THANK YOU SO MUCH MICHAELA!!!

[@Ahsoka_Hyrule]

My favorite song from the soundtrack, such a forlorn battle theme. Excellent work 💚🌹

[@IsrafelCello]

Thank you!!! And completely agree, the battle with Aeldra was the climax of the game for me.

[@TeraCMusic]

I love this so much!! Such a great duet 💜

[@IsrafelCello]

Awwwwww thank you so much Tera!! ♥️♥️♥️

[@GameGrooves]

Always upvote for Ikenfell covers!

[@IsrafelCello]

Yay!!!

[@Tysonbaradad]

I wish loops counted as views - I listened to this for six hours straight yesterday!

[@IsrafelCello]

AHHHH that's wonderful to hear!! I'm sure loops go towards my channel watch time, anyway. :) The track is available on Spotify and iTunes as well, hopefully I can get a link for various platforms later today and add it to the description.

This was one of my favorite songs from the game, the melody is so beautiful. Fantastic cover, this is perfect!!! 💕

[@IsrafelCello]

I'm so happy you liked it!! Definitely one of my favorite songs from the game as well, and sort of the emotional climax of the game for me. Thank you for listening!

[@FrankyM_Piano]

Amazing performance from you two! I'm not sure Ikenfell would be my type of game but you sure make a solid case for checking out the soundtrack at least! Well done.

[@IsrafelCello]

Thank you! The soundtrack is excellent, deserves more attention and love. :) I personally enjoyed the game a lot, checked a box for me on interesting tactical RPG gameplay, but totally understand if it's not for everyone.

[@subversiveasset]

Exquisite performance, as to be expected of course! Love the little variants at 2m47s, etc.,!

[@IsrafelCello]

I'm so happy you mentioned the variation at that spot and after that! It was really fun to arrange and work in those elements that gave the second time through its own uniqueness and flavor. :D Thank you so much!

[@JoanneMoo]

This arrangement, performance and dynamics are just beyond elegant ❤ wonderful intro run. Really really love the cello voicing and piano runs weaving across the note ranges 😭 fantastic cover both @purpleschala @israfelcello

[@IsrafelCello]

Thank you Joanne! That means A LOT to me, we put so much into this one.

[@purpleschala]

YAY

[@IsrafelCello]

♥️♥️♥️

[@ZSymphonia]

This is one of those videos that reminds me why you and Purpleschala are one of my favourite VGM duos hahaha Awesome stuff! Never heard the original but love how this arrangement sounds! And I see you experimenting with some different camera angles and video editing techniques which is great!

[@IsrafelCello]

THANK YOU SO MUCH EMILE!! That's really kind of you - check out the game and the OST at some point if you have time, it's a really nice tactical RPG. And thank you so much for the comments about the video - honestly I have felt lately like I hit a bit of a wall with video production, and it's really great to feel like I've taken a step forward with this one. :D

[@Tigitobi]

Very refreshing! Perfect start into the day. Thank you

[@IsrafelCello]

Yay! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

[@WoofTree137]

Absolutely gorgeous cover!

[@IsrafelCello]

Thank you so much for watching!! 🙏😊

[@mikebolton2388]

I appreciate your experimentation with video style, I honestly prefer it this way. I really enjoy these when I have my nice headphones on. I can hear every detail! Also upload to spotify!

[@IsrafelCello]

Thank you so much!! I don't get a whole lot of feedback on my video styles, so it's great when I get comments that let me know when something is working! The track is on Spotify - you're reminding me that I need to put together a URL with all the available links, I will do that and add it to the description. In the meantime, this should get you there: spotify:track:5cbf7AWtkEXkuRKlnSDx2j

Amazing arrangement!

[@IsrafelCello]

Thank you so much!!

[@F0XH0UND007]

@israfelcello, miss your live streams.

[@IsrafelCello]

Thanks for checking in! I miss my livestreams and the Twitch community!! In the recent past, I've been swamped with work, but I'm hoping to get back to doing some streaming eventually.

[@ascetic3312]

I am unfamiliar with this game. It has nice music, though. Great performances, all.

[@IsrafelCello]

Thank so much!! It's a really good game! Tactical RPG style combat, lovely characters and some pretty deep emotional exploration. Highly recommend!

[@ascetic3312]
