To Zanarkand is the third piece I've ever recorded for this channel. It holds a lot of emotion for me and pretty much everybody who played through Final Fantasy X. It's such a great piece and for this remake I respected the original tempo of this song a lot more. Final Fantasy X is to me still the last great game of the series (I have high hopes for XV though), so playing this again really was a trip down memory lane.
Some adjustments to the sheet music have been made.
Music composed by Nobuo Uematsu
Arranged for piano by Masashi Hamazu

how can anyone dislike this? even if you don't know what FF is you still have to appreciate this magical piece of music.

ive never played the games or watched the films and this is one of my favourite songs

[@peytongrant7281]

Same. I've played like five minutes of Final Fantasy XV and I still love this song. This one and Melodies of Life

[@davidharford3873]

One of the finest pieces of music ever composed.

[@MrFiveKDrew]

A song that is a part of my soul at this point brings back nostalgia and emotions that are unexplainable and somehow hauntingly beautiful. Literally perfection.

[@maureenm8462]

my son is constantly playing this on his keyboard. I didn't know where the tune came from but from listening to his playing it I find it a very beautiful piece of music.

[@Flensburger]

It´s coming from an old very, very good computer game called Final Fantasy X.

[@ThePlotInMatt]

Definitely still the best piece of music in games I’ve ever heard to this day. This whole piece just perfectly encapsulates the entire feeling of FFX.

[@nickcovert7482]

Just wanted to say I love this. I love how you actually show yourself playing it WITH synthesia "I think that's what it's called", that helps a lot. I also love how you kept to the song and added just enough of your own personal feeling into it that you could appreciate both aspects.

[@juhpuh5881]

I listen to this at some point each and every year since I was 8 year old, nothing makes me feel the way this does, ffx taught me so much

[@777rune]

To this day, after all these years, I can still listen to this and see the faces of Tidus & Yuna. I still get short of breath as the music stirs emotions that I rarely feel. This is exactly why I play video games, and D&D, and love movies. The stories and the art connected to them can change us forever. Thank you.

[@bradyr26]

One of the greatest melodies ever written. Add in the backstory and every note hits even harder.

[@Baqilawati]

amazing we are from different parts of the world we speak different languages and we share the same nostalgia for FFX 😢❤️ this game made me cry as a kid 😂 and unlike other things still when I look back to it I don't feel stupid. What a wonderful piece

[@MaxNylin]

Been practicing this song for two days now, starting to remember most of it up until 1 minute into the video. I started playing the paino for two weeks ago so maybe this song is a bit hard, but whatever I like the challange. The song is just so damn beautiful.

[@alfonsocanady7564]

Max Fahl So, one year in. How'd it go?

mesut Yilmaz Great to hear, I'm learning it myself as well

[@narsil5965]

@hEEdLesSLy I guess Alfonso died trying like a true warrior :p I've got my 1st keyboard ever just before Xmas, so far I can only play few simple pieces like godfather theme, carol of the bells etc. Then I found this video and started practising, even though I'm a FFVII fan and I love aerith's and tifa's themes somehow I enjoy this one even more. I wish I had a pedal tho to drag them notes out after releasing the keys (sorry idk the term for it).

[@nickstah8971]

No matter what people say, this is a beautiful piece of music and will always be my complete fave out of the all the other beautifully composed ff music.

[@roguenpc5574]

Hearing this brought tears to my eyes. Hearing this song again just gave me such a nostalgic feeling when I played final fantasy x. Just makes me wanna take my ps2 out of the garage and play the game all over again. Ty for taking your time to play and post it on KZbin :)

[@p3o]

The best to zanarkand version I've heard ever really the best perfect slowly omg

[@Ahiam1994]

Seriously one of the greatest songs in any game ever. If there's one thing that FFX had, it was an amazing soundtrack.

[@nexus7211]

This makes me want to hook up that ps2 in my closet... pop in FFX for old times sake... oh the memories.

I keep coming to this video and I always have the same feeling. What amazing performance

[@roxastidus4109]

Ah one of my best music still to this day.

[@Angels-3xist]

It’s always interesting to see what kind of flourishes, nuance and adaptations musicians will bring to very well composed simple songs that leave a little room. It’s a very good way to make something already enjoyable a bit more interesting. Remixing. Usually what I like best in covers. There’s always another way to do the same thing. True of any art.

[@xcheriia]

I get goosebumps everytime I listen to this, its so good

[@R4ZORLIGHT]

probably one of the best songs in gaming history!

It's a great tune. My son bought himself a keyboard and is constantly playing this. He does make an odd mistake and is trying to get it right. But he plays it as in video it's a beautiful piece of music.

I've subscribed to your channel because you are one of the ONLY ones with the midi link in the description, I hate these clips where they show you something and then you have to spend hours hunting the correct one from the clip, if it's even available! Kudos to you, you're doing it for the people!

One of my favorite tunes from the final fantasy series awesome 😎

[@borasykong]

brings back memories, man..

[@OnitMiths]

I always loved the powerful emotion in this one. It literally describes the impending doom via Big Bad, and the cost that the characters will have to pay in order stop it. Knowing that these might be their final times as a band of brothers, the lonely party treads on in the ruined temple, trekking ever closer to destiny. And to fight some hot crazy with killer hair.

[@TheMuffinMan73]

This was the first song I ever learned on the piano, even before I started taking lessons. I played it (and prefer it) with less rubato, though.

[@grzegorznonszalancki7604]

This song though. Wow.

[@saidberrios8244]

Una de las melodías más bellas de final fantasy

[@collinaull1950]

I've never played final fantasy and I don't intend to, but my piano teacher gave me this because I wanted to play a lot of video game music(skyrim and fallout mostly) and another one of her students had it. I'm happy she did!

[@FaelonZ]

+Akh'sien_the_Khajiit_Assassin You should really reconsider playing ff. Even if it's not your style of gaming, the music and stories are phenomenal. This is just 1 of many of the great songs of ff. His earlier stuff is amazing. 9 had a lot of great piano pieces in it too. 6 had a lot of cool synth stuff.

[@swordofsanghelios9776]

+Akh'sien_the_Khajiit_Assassin Same here! I've been playing themes from Halo, Crysis, Mass Effect and the last of us and she gave me this. I want to learn Skyrim theme next. Any reccomendations for game music?

[@FaelonZ]

+Sword of Sanghelios I always recommend final fantasy music. Especially for piano since Nobuo Uematsu is a pianist. Chrono trigger and legend of dragoon have some great songs too. Of course you have old school nostalgia like Pokemon or anything from that gameboy era, just love those older sounding game music. In terms of ff, 9 has a lot of great piano pieces, really any of them have a lot of cool pieces. Just spend a day and listen to a bunch of OST for the games. I mean there's whole piano collections cds for final fantasy, for a reason.

[@J.D.Hardesty]

This will probably get lost in the sea of comments, but my late best friend and I played through FFX together in high school, it was the last game we ever played before life moved us in different directions. We had a fat PS2 that only read discs if the whole console was flipped upside down, and we shared it because we both came from really poor families. I still have the disc, and the memory card, and it wasn't until a few months ago that I decided to play the game again. I'm at the end about to face off against Jecht, part of me doesn't think I should beat it, and I should just leave it there, I'm not sure yet what I'll do, but this piece of music has been so special to me and has taken on new layers of meaning as the years go by. I'm happy so many people find it just as special
