    As someone who has listened to the KH piano collections over and over I have to say this was EXTREMELY impressive. I could barely tell the difference between this and the original! "Amateur pianist" thats the funniest thing i've heard all day :) You are way beyond amateur!!!

    • @timmahduud
      @timmahduud 8 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      +crazychase443 I'm guessing he does it for fun, which would make him an amateur pianist, regardless of his skill.

    Well said! Thank you--that's why I upload these pieces to youtube. I don't want to "show off".. inspiring others is more of my goal with music.. glad I could be of service :) Keep it up, perhaps you can some day get it even better than I did :) I wish you the best!

    A performance this clean at that tempo is godly, really hope you return to YT

    Such a beautiful song, but the notes for the left hand absolutely kill after even just the first few bars for me, then I end up messing everything up, you played it amazingly XD

    • @d0m2288
      @d0m2288 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I've noticed you've commented on several different videos of this song, so I imagine you probably like it as much as I do lol. It's very beautiful and epic. I hadn't really played much or learned a new song in like 3 years, but after hearing it, I just had to learn it. Still haven't finished yet but I'm making progress. Currently on page 5, but I can only play the first 4 pages up to speed. The left hand is indeed nuts, especially starting at page 4, but the more you do it the better it gets. Consistent practice is the key, to increase left hand endurance and muscle memory. I know that if we both practice often then we will eventually be able to play this awesome piece in its entirety. Good luck to you Rachel!

    • @iluvKH4eva
      @iluvKH4eva 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh don't worry, I know exactly how to get better XD But since becoming an artist and following an artistic route through college and university I haven't had the time nor strength to keep up my piano studies. I was way above grade 8 when I slowly started to stop playing, but I haven't had any decent practice since having left secondary school a couple of years ago. I'm planning on buying a new electric piano as my upright can't really be moved to my uni flat, and I hope on getting back up to the level I was once at. Which means having to relearn everything..

    • @3ahugoromacho
      @3ahugoromacho 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Rachel Walpole seeing your comment being posted more than 1 year ago makes me wonder if you actually learned the song or kept studying piano :> Idk, just... youtube comments haha

  • @ggg-uu4io

    That piano has had quite a workout! You play extremely well and so fast. Beautiful!

    Who has played this piece, the best way on youtube, one might ask. This is the video I'm going to show him. Killed it man

  • @keyblademonkey12
    @keyblademonkey12 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You sound great. I still can't get over how easy you make those left hand runs look. Your fingers, my friend, are jacked.

  • @frand91
    @frand91 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I loved this so much. It wasn't flawless, but that's exactly why I loved it. It makes me feel that the person who's playing it is actually someone like me, and then I feel like I can learn this song too :) I've been trying to learn it lately and it's VERY hard for me, I have the littlest hands EVER and my piano, like yours, wasn't built for this song. So thank you very much, you have given me the push that I needed to keep going! I'll be very happy if I can ever play this song like you did ^^

  • @iluvKH4eva
    @iluvKH4eva 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah, I really don't want to lose it.. My parents keep urging me on to keep playing it, but I don't know. I lost the motivation somewhere, for reasons even I don't know. But your videos are really inspiring, and they've helped me get back on track several times in the past. So maybe I will ^^
    I'm just glad you post such great videos for us all to see. You have such a great talent, don't ever give it up :)

  • @ryanryu

    Perfect. It's amazing to see your piano skills improve after every video you upload, and I also think your great energy would fit very well with "night of fate".

  • @ZeferdensAccount
    @ZeferdensAccount 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Beautiful! I kinda liked the string reverb.It gave your piano character and "unique-ness" Nice jammies, by the way. :-)

    @daigoro789 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    YESSS!!! OMDays! that was epic! i was breathless throughout! such a tricky piece so well handled - this is def one of my fave uploads of yours, and the piece definitely suits your style of playing and the piano itself alot better than you make out! really enjoyed your tempo, and just watching your wining battle with the left hand! as others have said, thank goodness for that break which occurs around the 2minute mark! again, muchos kuods man ^_____^

  • @iluvKH4eva
    @iluvKH4eva 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ever since I got into drawing I've ignored piano... I don't want to... I haven't played in over two weeks... Hopefully, if I can watch enough of Kingdom Hearts piano videos which are what inspired me to play seriously in the first place, then maybe I will get into playing it again...

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @GangsterJawa I'm glad you liked it! I don't mean to criticize myself; I'm just naturally very defensive and analytical to all my errors, lol :3 Sheets... sheets... eeeeebaayyyyy... lol :) cha-ching! I don't do torrents or stuff like that, so I dunno if anybody uploaded them. So yeah ebay or playasia sells the books

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Arrow9100kj lol! Yeah, that's crazy hand acrobatics for you :) Agility!!!!! lol :) Glad you liked it, Arrow! Keep up the piano!!! Love what I've heard so far!

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @EtherealBurst Thanks :D It took me about a month my first playthrough about a year ago, and I spent about a week re-learning it before recording. It was such a crazy piece that even after a year it didn't take much effort to remember how to play it again!

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Tropictyce Aw, lol, really I don't deserve that XD I think youtube has a limit anyways--unless you were logging in from separate IP addresses each day, it'd give you a max of like 3-8 views or so, I think :P Thanks so much for the kind words, but I'm happy as long as the people who get to see it enjoy it :) Sometimes it might be best to not become quite so popular, I think^^

  • @MaxLucasPiano
    @MaxLucasPiano 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    just looked a bit closer and I realized that one of the main points of this song is keeeping the melody going in the right hand while doing so much else. Haha sick

    @115triplea Thanks so much and thanks also for commenting on so many of my videos haha. I've got 2 KH pieces ready to record but probably won't have time until exams end next month so more is on the way!

  • @MonFrere101
    @MonFrere101 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm quite impressed I know for sure that at my level of playing that it would take me a year or two to actually play this lol great job.

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow, thank you so much :) It's not perfect, but I'm glad it sounds okay. haha yeah, I love them too... so cozy :D Thanks again for the kind words!

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    yeah, this song is awesome! I get that sometimes too haha that's why I have to listen to less distracting kinds of music when studying :D
    Thank you :) Glad you liked it!

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ahh don't quit :) Piano is super awesome to have as a side project :) Drawing is nice too though! haha yeah if it wasn't for the KH and FF piano collections, I would have lost interest in piano a long time ago. They're what have kept me going :) Just stay at it! There's always a new song to learn somewhere!!

  • @AdamMessinaOfficial
    @AdamMessinaOfficial 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great job on a difficult piece!

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @ZeferdensAccount Yeah, the reverb certainly gives the performance a little bit of uniqueness; I'd be happier without it, but I'm quite happy with the end result.. the mics actually don't pick up a lot of the reverb I hear sitting at the piano when playing this, so in some ways it actually sounds BETTER on youtube than it does in real life (at least from the pianist's perspective) :) Thanks, lol, they're way awesome AND they're cozy! :3

    @jeje22871 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    You always do a super job! Im still waiting on FFIII song like terra's theme or something from chrono trigger or maybe the song the black caped man from FFVII Im sure you could make that one sound great and haunting I always wanted to hear that song on just piano. Anyway don't wanna sound pushy or anything :) Love your work Nathaniel!

  • @MaxLucasPiano
    @MaxLucasPiano 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    love this one! don't worry about the string reverb: that's not what's important.

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @OtakuKingdom Yup, don't worry Otaku that one will be up here one of these days. It'll most LIKELY be the next KH upload, but don't quote me on that! :D Thanks so much for the compliments too!

    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Zorsy haha, thanks Zorsy... Unfortunately my Japanese needs a liiiittle more renshuuuuu before that'll happen! But I don't think KH3 is due for at least a few more years anyway so I'll totally be all set by then. :O

  • @MonFrere101
    @MonFrere101 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @nathanielpiano Well that was actually the very first piece I've posted on youtube you can find the sheet music by googling it unless you really want to do it by ear. It's way simple I'd love to hear how you play it.

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @jeje22871 Oh my gosh, jeje! I forgot, I still owe you a video of Julia too... I started it, but my ear is soo horrible and I gave up--I'll get back to it as soon as schedule permits; I really need to work on my ear badly :) If I can manage to pull off Julia okay, maybe I'll be able to do other songs from classics like FFVI(III)/VII and Chrono Trigger on piano... I'd love to be able to do that... Thanks so much for your comments :)

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @MonFrere101 Oh, really? Awesome! I'll check out sheets then. Been working on my ear some; I'm horrible, lol.. probably'll be a little smoother that way. Thanks man!

    @ch4d0kun Thanks so much :D *shudders* The whole rest of it....? >.> SOMEDAY! Certainly not anytime soon tho, I'm tooooo busy lols :) I don't have time to explain my setup atm, but can you send me a reminder inbox message, and I'll send you a list of what I use and how I set it up hopefully within the next few days.

    @ch4d0kun 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I always find myself coming back and listening to ALL of your KH piano collection pieces - I don't think I have found many recordings at all which are quite nearly as comprehensively performed as yours. I am currently trying to learn this piece in a one month window, so it should keep me really busy haha! I really love your Sora and Riku movements. :) Now play Kairi and Working Together. :P Oh, and also record Medley of Conflict on the Shigeru! I demand it! ;)
    Hope you're doing well buddy!

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @daigoro789 Aww thanks so much Daig! Yes, this is definitely one of the pieces that really matches my style, I think. It's brutal, I really am shocked it turned out so well, because it sounded horrible the day before I recorded it, lol. Okay MAYBE not HORRIBLe, but not AMAZING :P lol, yeah... a lot of other youtubers skipped that part of the piece, I dunno why... I really like the epic part with the chords (not just for the respite... its EPIC)

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @DavidRussell323 Thanks bro! I've been listening to some of your stuff right now and it's extremely awesome as well :)

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @starfire139 haha, I can IMAGINE, beginning with this piece is a liiiiiittle bit crazy. It's a great finger-strength training piece though, especially for the weaker 4 and 3 fingers of the left hand, which is conveniently where I needed the most work, so that works, lol. But yeah, that respite in the middle is CERTAINLY called for! Or else mah hands woulda conflagrated before the end of it... >.

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @magicturbo9 lols, glad you enjoyed! :D

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @keyblademonkey12 Haha, thanks bro! They may look easy, but rotating between the 4th and 3rd finger that quick took me tons of practice and requires intense dexterity and concentration D:

    @nathanielpiano thx and yes, yes it is hard considering im in middle school. is it safe saying that oh well good thing it isn't a bad school with that many bullies either way thanks and yeah don't sweat. i can imagine you have a ton of pressure on your hands so take your time. even if it's been 25 years e'll be patient. so yeah chilax and don't worry! ;D

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    lol thank you, kind sir. Yeah, I can never record things 100% perfect, not when they're this hard. The hope is that in playing something that isn't completely perfect it shows that I'm human and therefore maybe can inspire other people to try to do the same :) Music like this isn't impossible if you give it your all ^^ Thank you so much :)

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @MaxLucasPiano Yeah, the melody is pretty much always present throughout the whole thing. Part of the challenge is keeping it audible while doing the crazy stuff :)

  • @nathanielpiano

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @l3izzare Thanks! I learned that one a long time ago.. would be fun to bring it out again. Maybe someday :)

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @MaxLucasPiano Yeah, it actually didn't come out too strongly in the recording, so it's not too noticable thankfully :)

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @889michael1 haha no prob! Glad it was of inspiration :)

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @EtoGmajor I would suggest using 3 and 4 for 00.17. It partially depends on your hands and what you personally feel most comfortable with, but your 4th and 5th fingers are closely connected in motor ability and tend to be weaker. You have to be able to put a lot of strength and speed into that part with the left hand--it's strenuous either way. For the other part at 1:20 that arrangement should work alright--it's basically what I used.

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Ah yeah, that part is sorta a total change of pace from before and requires some awkward hand positioning with all the flats everywhere. Don't let it stop you though, I had to take that entire section really slowly for about a month, going over it every day and I still miss notes when I play it up to speed. Don't worry about hitting every note dead on--the song moves so quickly that if you miss a few here and there, it's hardly noticeable thankfully. Getting the melody is most important :)

  • @Just-Another-Tenor
    @Just-Another-Tenor 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @nathanielpiano is one of them 13th struggle? best song ever. you should totally do that song. it is amazing. i'm practicing it on flute though with is pretty hard considering it's really fast but try to do that song but like when you have time to even do that song which i understand so yeah and thx for responding to all of those comments so yeah

  • @_ytnahs
    @_ytnahs 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    By hearing the song alone (the soundtrack), I could pick up several notes at a time, but I couldn't imagine it required so much...hand movement xD

  • @Barra_
    @Barra_ 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love this song so much. I nearly had it down and everything then came along exam time :'( so I dropped it and haven't touched it in years. It sounds a lot better than on my piano XD
    I actually think this is easier than some of the others 'cause it's quite straightforward in playing.

  • @nathanielpiano
    @nathanielpiano  12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It was painful a bit, so take it slow. Don't rush into it or it will hurt, unless you're experienced with really taxing songs like this. I remember burning my wrists slightly out a few times until I worked up the muscle, so it can hurt.
