Thank you so much for listening to my music!
I learned something about tempo after getting a new piano several months ago. Now when I play Terra's theme, I do play it a tad slower than I played it here, because my new piano can handle the slower tempo. This goes to show that an interpretation doesn't always lie mainly with how a musician thinks the piece should sound, but also has to do with what they're working with- what instrument they're playing on, what room they're playing in, etc.
All that being said, I made a new recording of this theme for my album on Spotify!

Reiko Nomura's version on the 1994 album 'Piano Collections: Final Fantasy VI' is what most would consider definitive. The album was co-produced by Uematsu, after all. It's slower and has a more melancholy tone which I think people really associate with the character and the overall bleak tone of the game's story. In the game itself, the main theme version is a woodwind piece and has no arpeggios. So if the piano versions can take license with the structure and complexity of the piece, surely it's acceptable to take a little license with the tempo in your rendition.

Thank you for this information! Honestly I need to just take down my defense of the tempo I took XD I've learned over these months of recording that picking a tempo is completely up to me and my interpretation. I try to do my best but the tempo I choose can never satisfy all listeners. Which is okay- it's music and music is always changing and is open to many forms of interpretation. Thank you again!!

As much as I agree in principle, it's because the overall tone IS melancholic the slow tempo a requisite of this piece.

This is the track that began my decades long love of Nobuo Uematsu's incredible music. The ultimate adventuring theme. Like so much of Final Fantasy's music, so somber, an air of hopelessness, permeated by subtle rays of light. I could listen to this forever.

The Terra's Theme is the song of all Final Fantasy (because I've played almost all) and it belongs to version number VI, which is one of the best in history (although many love the VII because it is the first played by the youngest). On your piano you added several arrangements that make it a unique piece. Hugely grateful for giving us this experience; as well as for performing the Chrono Cross theme "Shore of Dreams" which is also wonderful.

He escuchado final fantasy, más concretamente el 7 porque fue un juego que me enamoro. Yo también toco el piano y gracias a ti me has inspirado ha querer mejorar más como amante del piano. No se que formación tuviste en toda tu vida de piano pero simplemente decirte dos palabras: maravillosamente perfecto. Felicidades.

@@gaspersb I am a traveler and clairaudient. This is a common misconception. The infinite repeating universe theory. There is no such thing. There are trillion of universes, but the idea there is a universe for everything is known as Arcturian humor. Let's say a universe exists where ketchup tastes good on waffles. How these elements occur is a media property is unconsciously or consciously channeled, often by Japanese, because most older Japanese people are channels, mediums, telepaths. It's that simple. But yes, getting there is not possible unless it's through manifestation into a different reality, basically. Joining with such a power structure. Or available after one's death on this world.

I think I've listened to this video about 1,000 times. And will listen to it 1,000 more. Would you ever consider doing another version (or 2) of this song? I've come to realize there are many in the game itself... I like the one that has the interlude and a key change half way through, with a "accept the past and find courage to carry on" vibe. I also love the opening credits version with its "epic quest" vibe. Edit: the one i was thinking of was "Awakening" which when i listen to it actually reminds me of your version... Anyway you do you, i love your art!

"I detest imitation, I detest hackneyed devices...." -S. Prokofiev I found this refreshing, we are as performers allowed to express our selves through our realization of the score. my current professor also frequently remarks about the need to consider melodic grouping and pacing and breathing ...spot on. you are not setting out to copy what most people have done before, in fact , that's our challenge, how do,we make the familiar interesting?... besides if you have critics, it just means you are doing something right..,either in challenging your audience, gaining enough exposure. or both. and those that think it's too fast can go learn and record and post their zzz....of a performance to their own channel. besides are Arnie (as in Arnold ) Schoenberg said, and I paraphrase , true artistry doesn't seek to be pleasing to everyone, but rather if it pleases all, then it isn't true art. ooooh snap :-)

Hahaa you're so eloquent when you write XD Thank you for this. I do realize that some interpretations are not as excepted, neither should they be. For instance, I probably would never play a Bach Fugue with full pedal, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's forbidden. Chances are though, it won't be accepted very well because it's very far from stylistically correct. But I agree with you 100%!!

When you started, it reminded me quite a bit of the piano part of the Young and the Restless theme. I love that piano; it sounds awesome. I expected to find info on the piano in the description, but I did not. I'd like to know; name, model, year, and so on. As far as the tempo is concerned, the original piece does NOT have a stable tempo, it's dynamic, ranging from 60 to 88 BPM, so really, your rendition here is fine, and absolutely enjoyable. Also, I've never thought of Terra's theme as sad or melancholic, but adventurous and exciting.

This rendition of this song is the whole reason I learned to play piano. I still have yet to get through the whole song without messing up. Still glad I learned to play and I still really enjoy playing it.

most people react to video games or cartoon songs by sheer nostalgia, so if a musician gives a song a twist they go gun's blazing all over the musician because the song wasn't played "correctly"

Sorry for the late reply ( KZbin's notifications, grr ) Personally, when I hear the song, I imagine it being very tame, calm and relaxing, hearing all the individual notes giving you time to absorb it all and appreciate every note, especially around about the 0:55 mark when being played at 0.75 speed, on normal speed it feels very energetic, which in my personal opinion doesn't seem fitting. Don't get me wrong, you did absolutely fabulous with this song and nailed it, I just feel slowing it down just a tiny tad would've been perfect :)

People are used to hearing it a certain way. That's how it is with all music actually. And someone is bound to be thrown for a loop when they hear something played just a little different than they normally hear. You're right, it's impossible to please everyone no matter what!

I’ve followed you on Instagram for quite a while now. I remember sending you a message well over a year ago, simply mentioning how much I love Final Fantasy VI, and how this is my favorite composition from the game. Today I find out you have a KZbin channel AND that you’ve covered the song! It sounds great! ❤️ I may or may not have gotten a little choked up. The world will never know the truth of it.

Such a beautiful, iconic song, and you played it so well... Thanks so much for the effort you took to record this video, it's one more to my KZbin music playlist :D

nostalgia, perhaps? Which is in no way wrong. I get that way from listening to pieces that remind me of parts of games I used to play. Or shows I used to watch. Not everyone gets those feelings and that's fine, too. It was an appreciative comment, so, y'know...

And after you were done playing you quietly slid your chair back, jumped up, and shouted "HA! FUCK YEAH! NAILED IT! FUCKING NAILED IT!" And you ran laps around the place hooting. Don't worry if you didn't actually do that, you did it in my mind so it counts. :P

This is probably the most importan song in my life. It got me into music, the game got me into art and fantasy in general and even thought me english growing up (my mom used to translate it to me while playing from english to french). And this is also the best version I herd somone play ever. Absolutely fantastic!!
