STAR WARS: Andor - Ferrix Funeral March (Epic Emotional Piano Cover)

[@AtinPiano]

What did you think of Andor?

[@tobwoolf]

Superb. The most enjoyable star wars experience since revenge of the sith

[@Gojo_Sensei_Ka]

Perfect. Very deep and dark. The last speech Cassian listen about the rebellion is pure gold. Can't wait for the season 2.

[@mathisbeulich5456]

Its perfect

[@aauwhatitdo1582]

Perfect.

[@Oakandflowermusic]

I was optimistic about Andor but by episode 2 my hopes were crushed

[@HaloVFX]

As one of the Animators who worked on Andor (who also plays piano), this is so cool....

[@ejay1995]

For real? That's sick.

[@marcoespinosamx]

One of the greatest series that I have seen in my entire life.

[@matthewblack2926]

You should be proud to have worked on something so great, thank you for your contribution to the Star Wars universe, for helping give us something so great!

[@neliskrelis6453]

What kind of stuff did you animate for the show

[@aaronelliott9487]

The whole show was so good, gave me chills

[@timothylong3110]

This song hits harder than a loved one’s brick to the face.

[@ChrissiHaupt]

😂😂 love this one

[@Jollyroger84103]

One of the most cathartic finales in television history

[@Endersmens]

This piece is one of the best pieces of music to come from Star Wars in a long time. Nothing in Star Wars has conveyed such strong feelings for me. Even just listening to your arrangement on the Piano I can feel the sorrow they were feeling, and as the song progresses I can feel my heart beating faster as the sorrow turns to agony and then suppressed anger ready to be released. It's absolutely incredible and is one of the making points of the series for me. I love your arrangement of it!

[@toad_of_the_sky]

Yeah, the fact that it's an in-universe peice of music makes it even better.

[@keithjohnson7893]

I’m going to disagree purely because, in my opinion, pretty much all Star Wars music is phenomenal. That has never been a low point for the series. I would like to clarify, that that doesn’t mean that I don’t like the Funeral march, it’s fucking great.

[@mrhelzbygrad7485]

Coming from the north west of England, an area of coal miner's bands and left behind heavy industry this music really made me so happy.

[@coatedpikachu8816]

i think the only star wars thing that got more emotion out of me than this arrangement was his arrangement of burying the dead

[@FASynergy]

Nicholas Brittel's score for this series was absolutely stellar. Up there with the very best in Star Wars.

[@TheWRCS]

I haven’t seen Andor, but judging from this song, I can tell I’ll really appreciate the show. It sounds so low key, but very impactful.

[@ShiftyMcGoggles]

I'd whole heartedly suggest giving it a watch, but keep two things in mind, it's a lot like Rogue One, but given more of a slow burn pacing.

[@silverblaknite]

i had the honor of stumbling across a lovely facebook posting about "thoughts about Andor" before seasons end. Someone commented "its too slow, no lightsabers, no jedi, etc" .. the reply was "it literally starts off with a double homicide." lol. so enjoy the show. its very deep, it lets the characters develop, the dialogue is superb (or maybe i need to read more), the acting is great, and ... shit i need to rewatch it again.

[@TroySchoonover]

You will not be disappointed. Best Star Wars series since the original movies!

[@Oliver_JW]

the song and the scene that it goes with it is beautiful and powerful and well worth watching

[@LordKalte]

My name is Maarva Carrassi Andor. I'm honored to stand before you. I'm honored to be a Daughter of Ferrix, and honored to be worthy of the stone. Strange, I... feel as if I can see it. I was six, I think, first time i touched a funerary stone. Heard our music, felt our history, holding my sisters hand as we walked all the way from Fountain Square. Where you stand now, I've been more times than i can remember. I always wanted to be lifted. I was always eager, always waiting to be inspired. I remember every time it happened, every time the dead lifted me... with their truth. And now I'm dead, and I yearn to lift you. Not because i want to shine or even be remembered. It's because i want you to go on. I want Ferric to continue. In my waining hours, thats what comforts me most. But I fear for you. We've been sleeping. We've had each other, and Ferrix, our work, our days. We had each other and they left us alone. We kept the trade lane open, and they left us alone. We took their money and ignored them, we kept their engine churning, and the moment they pulled away. we forgot them. *(SIGH)* Because we had each other. We had Ferrix. But we were sleeping. I've been sleeping. And I've been turning away from the truth I wanted not to face. There is a wound that won't heal at the center of the galaxy. There is a darkness reaching like rust into everything around us. We let it grow, and now it's here. It's here and it's not visiting anymore. It wants to stay. The Empire is a disease that thrives in darkness, it is never more alive than when we asleep. It's easy for the dead to tell you to fight, and maybe it's true, maybe fighting is useless. Perhaps it's too late. But I'll tell you this, if I could do it again, I'd wake up early and be fighting those bastards from the start! Fight the Empire! (Stolen from TheRed_Knight)

[@Jaro_Il_Magnifico]

One of the best monoluges in cinema.

[@surajganiger]

fun fact it was supposed to be "fuck the empire"

[@General_Arcturus506]

“I’ve been looking forward to this”

[@UnrulyMob709]

Andor was the show I was waiting for my whole life. Got the special edition trilogy as a kid, and would pontificate often as an adult about how awesome a grown up Star Wars could be. I was expecting a grown up Jedi show; I was not excited for a Cassian show (even though Rogue One was the best movie since Disney acquisition, and still is). But I was wrong. I wanted a show about the empire and rebellion. Truly a gift to Star Wars fans; such an amazing interpretation and humanization of the rebellion. Nemik, Luthen, Deedra, Kino. Wow. The show hits you like an ash brick to the face...

[@HardcoreBeta]

Just like with Your Father Would Be Proud, A Jedi's Fury, Battle of the Heroes, Gregor, Burying the Dead, Kanan and the Fire, Sabine sees Ezra, Overcoming the Past and so forth this piece really moved me when it first played. Andor is a diamond in the rough and it was such a treat to watch. It really was the sleeper hit everyone eas hoping it'd be and I couldn't be happier. Your ability to recreate those emotional beats with your pianist skills speaks to your talents. Never stop playing. May the force be with you.

[@eliasmolden8168]

Thank you for the recommendations! I added all of them to my playlist:)

[@mastermichael0751]

anakin's betrayal (the song) is another that does amazing at conveying emotions like this

[@naimd6553]

@@mastermichael0751 + add ahsoka leaves anakin/Jedi order too

[@latech7671]

This is in my opinion one of the best soundtracks from any show in a while but more importantly one of the best diagetic soundtracks of all time. The way all the characters on Ferrix react to this music and the music itself makes this moment so emotional

[@budakbaongsiah]

When I saw this on my recommendation, I thought, "I wonder how this fellow cram an entire funeral marching band to a piano", and I think you did quite well. You really struck the balance between cramming the notes and not making it repetitive on just one instrument and keeping the somber feeling of the original.

[@AtinPiano]

Thank you :)

[@noahhelsee1340]

i can literally see the march in my head it's magnificent. what a show.

[@shaunsmith9013]

Hearing this played on piano really makes me recall "Light Of The Seven"

[@katarn101]

3:04 hits hard and I can't fully figure out why! I just love it

[@Tomcat_Coyote]

That's the part of the song that is not just about Maarva anymore. That is the people of Ferrix, their anger, their anguish and their determination to take a stand and fight for what it theirs. There are so many emotions in the Funeral March, it's insane, every detail of the series is executed masterfully.

[@adamnewbs3522]

The part where B2 called everyone to march :)

[@joshcorbett9674]

For me, thats where the song switches from being a solemn funerary march, almost to a march to war. The people of Ferrix rise up

[@ViewfromtheVoid]

Damn Corey, I wanted to say this exact comment, but to try and give an answer as well I think it's because of three things: That epic fanfare score, the shifting of tides for the Rebellion and to add a third and more cheesier reason; the fandom finally geting some good SW content ;)

[@d15p4tch6]

​@@joshcorbett9674 this song really captures the core of what star wars is: people rising out of their oppression with everything they've got: anger and determination

[@Numba003]

This was a beautiful piece. Thank you. Andor was one of the best shows I've seen in a little while. It was much more of a gem than I was expecting it to be. God be with you out there everybody. ✝️ :)

[@troylivingstone9553]

Seeing it in this format really lends credence to the idea that music is in the DNA of any good cinematography

[@yanmilesACE]

Your solo piano version is truly beautiful! , As the editor of the episode Rix Road this version blows me away. Masterful!

[@juancabardo21]

your editing was amazing! Great work

[@bexyd5750]

Stone and sky!

[@jmdeltoro8074]

After hearing of Diego Luna's father passing I knew I had to hear this song again. Made me more emotional than the first time. 🙏🙏🙏

[@PrestonSikes]

"Long have I waited. And now it's coming together" - Palpatine

[@Z4CK12]

Yo this song gave me chills bro 😭

[@AviationJeremy]

I loved the song. It’s completely unrelated to John Williams’ brilliant works, so it isn’t using nostalgia like other shows have used, but it would make him immensely proud. It’s difficult not to hum with Bix or chant “stone and sky” with the crowd.

[@robertpatrick3350]

The casting for Andor was was stronger than any of the other Star Wars shows, saving it from the Disney-fication that made the other shows so dire.

[@ThePhotographyBattalion]

By far one of the best pieces of Star wars piano music I’ve ever heard!

[@maurenovick]

This is so haunting and beautiful!!!

[@keithjohnson7893]

My favorite part is the swell at the end and I’m sad that it isn’t in the soundtrack.

[@Diamond-pg4kc]

This is so beautiful! Now I want to rewatch it for the third time...

[@kewlkeshi]

This and the new end credits score to Ahsoka are the best Star Wars music to come out of the new projects

[@artakhalvati2880]

I also recommend you attempt the andor theme from the end of episode 3, it's simple but beautiful

[@ekoostic]

@2:20 ohhhh i get it now. they made a final fantasy set in star wars. brilliant

[@thearchangel2577]

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one

[@МихаилГоронок]

Pls do ISB theme next. I think its utterly underrated

[@n1c3s43]

Long Time since I get emotional from a scene at the end of a series like when the music started in Andor

[@roguetheotter]

oooooo I was wondering if you'd do this one! Incredible and haunting, as usual. gorgeous.

[@Kairac112]

What a great cover man. Makes me want to learn piano.

[@StarWarsExplained]

HOT DAMN

[@AnnikaSB]

FINALLY I HAVE BEEN WAITING

[@DarthTofu2]

This is a great piece of music, but the one detail that I love from the show is- it’s all out of tune. Everyone is a little sharp or a like flat, slightly earlier or slightly later than their compatriots while it’s a funeral march. It gives you a very authentic feel that these are real people who has real lives that were taken from them. They have their discordant stories. They’re imperfect. They’re not quite aligned and aren’t truly a rebellion. Then the tempo picks up, more voices join in, and it balances out. It becomes better for more voices and becomes an enraged force to be reckoned with. And it slaps so. Darned. Hard.

[@powerdroidgirl]

Quite simply beautiful ❤️

[@florapolitis7902]

So wonderful^^ May the force be With You!

[@hardcorepoetic]

This redition was perhaps even more haunting than the original.

[@ItashiUshiwa]

thank you for that masterpiece

[@ShuTheIdiot]

at first i didnt like andor, i thought it felt too star trek episode one and thus i didnt take it further having been burned by kenobi and bobf i admit i was pre-emptive in my dropping of the show... but then i got into legion and felt i should watch it to get content ideas and paint schemes and ideas for the table top... and holy shit was i glad i did andor was like the deep breath before a shout, the funeral scene especially i loved it and hope it continues being so good.

[@Jimbovang]

Finally, been trying to find this.

[@ViewfromtheVoid]

This is beautiful, thank you.

[@PrestonSikes]

Thos score was perfect for that finally. These people just wanted to work and mourn the loss of their figurehead, and them empire beat them down every time. It wasn't a funeral march, it was a war march

[@trevormccormick1565]

Perfection

[@hekmapresent]

Marvelous

[@Eivor85]

Does anyone else think that the Ferrix Funeral March sounds like a slower version on the opening credits to Andor with different instruments

[@WeaponizedAutism7]

They definitely share DNA. Intervals are changed around a bit

[@2KOOLURATOOLGaming]

IIRC, the Funeral March was the first piece of music written, before the show and opening credits had been written.

[@brysonkuervers2570]

@@2KOOLURATOOLGaming And everything in the show was based around leading up to that final episode, yes

[@KaiserMacCleg]

There's a theory floating around online that the song which plays during the titles is part of Andor's own funeral dirge, which would make sense given that this series is charting his course to the events of Rogue One, and his death.

[@josephwarner1612]

A cover of Impend from halo 2 would be absolutely exquisite

[@Imperator_Prime]

This seems like a place where I might be able to find something I'm looking for-- an Andor fan who's also a folk musician. I've got an idea percolating that I'm hoping such a person might be able to help realize.

[@Justanotherconsumer]

It’s a wonderful piece of music but it’d be very difficult to march to. Still, one of the best uses of diegetic music in recent movies (using that term broadly). My favorite diegetic Star Wars music moment is the cantina band stopping after Ben’s “bar fight” and then starting right back again as soon as it’s over. Just another Tuesday for Figirin D’an and the Modal Nodes.

While I appreciate this arrangement, I think the Funeral March losing something being cleaned up. The roughness of the theatrical version (the missed notes, out of tune instruments, etc.) make it seem more organic, more of a "rise of the people" event.

Any chance to make some kind of Andor' suite in the future, or maybe other Andor's pieces? Funeral march is truly emotional and probably the most iconic music piece of the show, but there are also other themes that I believe would worth a shot, like Andor's main theme or Mon Mothma's one.
