Wow. Amazing Work. Secret of Mana is my absolute and undisputed all time favourite video game (I finished it around 30 times and am still playing it at least one time per year). And one of the most amazing parts of the game was this fabulous music which gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. And you just nailed it. So many thanks to you and all the amazing people which worked with you on this masterpiece of music
The transition to I closed my eyes is amazing. I picture a campfire setting where my weary corgi travelers and I are safely camped somewhere on our adventures.
I like "Symphonic Fantasies Tokyo" SoM arrangement better. It's Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, hard to compete with. There's also a recording from the original Cologne concert, I need to buy that record sometime soon. I'm glad this version exist tho. it's airy and bright.
@@maintaint3003 I tried giving that a listen, but in my ears, Rebecca wins without a doubt. I would say that if one prefers the super bombastic neo-romantic kind of music with a lot of choir singing that's in a lot of movies and games nowadays, that's the version people should check out. However, I feel that's way to overladen and generic, and I think this version has more heart. As you said, airy and bright. I hope @RebeccaETripp will do more of what she did in this arrangement, using guest musicians that plays real instruments. I gave some of her other arrangements a listen, and the lack of acoustic instruments were obvious in some of the "epic" orchestrations. This arrangement has more depth and life because of that.
I can’t thank you enough for this. I went on a nostalgic trip from beginning to end. Me and my friend scrounging up the money to buy the game. Riding bikes up to eb games to buy it. Untangling snes cords Talking to each other our grade school crushes Scrounging up more money to go buy snacks Head banging to the dark litch music Charging up weapons to the max and loving the max charge animations Busting out the flamie drum Soaring through the sky never ending story style. Fighting the mana beast. And the end credits and the few seconds of silence and my friend and I realized it was all over T_T
Literally sounds like my childhood. Except my brother bought me the game on a whim when I was 8... and couldn't fathom the imagination influx he'd given me. I played that game through and through for years. Then I made a friend when I was 10, and every single night we'd play until morning. So many mountain dews and chips ahoy were consumed... he'd always choose the girl and equip the spear and me the main character...poor sprite was always ai controlled but we'd make sure to equip him with the best stuff. Pure lands was hell! Good times. Fast forward 29 years and I'm sitting at work writing this..... and before I came into work, you know what I was playing??? You guessed it! Secret of mana. The remake, but with the original music. I'll never get tired of this game
It's been 25 years since I played this. When "Prophecy" started at 19:07, I actually teared up. The most beautiful song from the greatest soundtrack in gaming history
I don't know if you will ever read this comment but I just wanted to say I love this entire medley. There's something about Secret of Mana that makes me think of spring. And living in Alberta I especially look forward to Spring. Sometimes when Winter's seemed to drag on a little too long and I listen to this medley and think of spring. It helps lift my spirit often.
Thank you. The game reminds me of summer! But a little bit of spring, as well. I associate it with memories of walking around town in May and June with flowers growing all over the place.
Actually un fucking real how good this is. 100k views? FUck me, deserves 10mil+. Brought these compositions TO LIIIIIIIIIIFE. Brought. Them. JUSTICE. Thank you thank you thank you.
Wow. Listening to the Secret of Mana score since release and since the first days on TH-cam,.. but that's by far the absolutely best orchestral version of this score. I am so glad I found this one today. Thank you and the whole lot who was a part of it.
Rebecca, it is so sad they didn´t pick your remakes and arrangements for the remake. Really, honestly your versions sound a thousand times better and are absolutely touching. Thank you so much for your great and astonishing work! Much of love
It is not only the score but the love, which you have towards this game (and its music), which is totally appreciated by me / us! I can hear it through every note in the arrangement.
omg since i know about the remake ... this is so epic. This is to emotional to me... the first time i cant stop cry for this beautiful thing. I don't know why... but everytime I have this final with Pop inside the trees... i was crying.
The flute the chimes, every last measure is flawless. You guys truly nailed the celtic and innocent theme perfectly. I only wish and pray someone makes a music mod for the Secret of Mana remake with this theme. I would buy it instantly
This is breath-taking. Bringing back so many childhood memories, and the music is performed so beautifully. Really really good job on bringing all of this together!
Wow... literally got chills listening to this. Especially Prophecy, dark Star and Meridian Dance which were my favorite songs from the game. The only word that springs to mind is "AMAZING"
At a loss for words, so I'll just say , superb. Makes me remember the sense of wonder that once stirred in this child. Felt a few things I didn't think I would feel again.
That actually made me want to cry. I'm happy for you in the one sense, but sad that you've lost these senses (partially anyway). I hope that you can feel these things again! I'm sure that part of you is still in there, buried under the cobwebs of experiences which were, perhaps, less enchanting. Perhaps this brief return to that childlike state can reawaken other aspects of your personality which have been locked away! :O
I'm just amazed! I've been in situations requiring five or more people and all I remember out of it was how difficult it is to get more than one person to work together. So from an organizational view this is miraculous. then we listen to the sounds and smile away. Blackie was very happy.... Very proud and happy father.
Thank you, Dad! Yeah, this is quite an undertaking! I don't know what possessed me to work on something this large in such a short space of time! Still, it was worth it, even if it did tire me out a bit! Now for a week of rest (in Hawaii!).
Thank you so much for putting this together. It was not only beautiful to listen to but took a nice, soft, nostalgic angle on all of the arrangements. Most orchestral arrangements for Square music tries very hard to be bombastic or programmatic sounding, but this was just some nice emotions and reminiscing on the game's most prominent locales. Loved every minute, and will listen to it again and again!
I love the original, but this wonderful work glorifies it even more !!! What a pleasure to revive these sounds with such colors, thank you thank you thank you (and all the other artists of course) ! The time to show it was totally worth the wait :)
I love how the graphics and concept art on the cover on this game completely correspond with the game itself. Especially the music. This is the only game I have ever bought because of its cover.
@@RebeccaETripp I had it too when I was younger. Actually thinking about getting it again. Also used to have printed out fan art on my wall...missing my super Nintendo years...☹️
@@RebeccaETripp but of course. I think it's a niche group of people who learn about music and then think back to realize the composition in the ost was top notch.
this is unbelivebale beauty ! ... With fear of Heavens you got me.... i cryed this is my childhood all the memorys when brother an I sit at the SNES and played this game.
I don't know how this slipped through, I only ever listened to your contributions to the OCR album 'Resonance of the Pure Land', I never knew you had a 30-minute medley! I am so delighted ☺️. Amazing work!
Not gonna lie, I wept at the end. This is one of the greatest tributes I've ever heard. Thank you and everyone who worked with you to make this. It truly made me feel like a kid again!
omg when color of the summer sky came on it's like going back in time... the relief of escaping into a town after intense combat... safe and sound :) thank you!!
My fave rpg franchise growing up. I remember "Into the thick of it" as being the best digital version of an acoustic guitar (for 1993). It got stuck in my head all day in the 7th grade. All I cared about was getting home and playing SoM with friends. Thank you so much for releasing this.. brings back such fond memories ❤
Quarantine gave me the time to play secret of mana again and i can't believe the forgotten memories and happy moments it brought me. Now youtube suggestions have given me this masterpiece and my heart is almost bursting of nostalgia. Thank you for this masterpiece.
A soothing reminder of how much I love this style from the japanese RPG (not in favor of classifing by region). A huge fan specially of the second one, with more action related movements and OST. Worth the though and effort put into it for such time!
Such a magical score, infused with even more joy by your signature style, Rebecca, and the stellar performance of all of your collaborators! Brings me all sorts of emotions! I still hope this arrangement gets performed live some day.
Oh, haha! That must have been a nice starting point indeed! I'd wager you are (mostly) a happy soul if you like sounds like those ones the best out of everything in this!
Reminds me of playing this on emulator with a friend of mine from school. We called the MC ''Billy'' ad let the AI control that character, ofc we didn't expect a lot from him while we abused the magic system. However on school we always had this inside joke when we needed to do a cooperative task ''It's cool, we'll let Billy tank the essay'' etc. Needless to say all other kids knew we were (unmotivated) nerds and just brushed it off, but we had a blast and that's a memory to cherish.
at some tracks i had to shed some tears , because i got some memories at a most beautiful childhood with my family and friend who were alive at that time. now time has changed a lot. god bless u all
It’s beautiful. Memories are beautiful and they are, what we are made of. Everyone has his personal legacy to certain soundtracks. Every time i heard these, i feel like drowning in nostalgia. It’s like my alcohol, where i forgot the present. Dunno if it is healthier. I don’t care anymore. Thankyou for this work of yours 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 it’s a great gift.
Excellent work. Thank you for sharing this! I found "Ceremony" to be particularly magnificent. It definitely creates the sense of unease that should be felt in these dungeons: Thanatos is crazy, the dead linger, tomatoes are trying to kill you, and somebody keeps ringing the damn ceremonial bells.
I love the music, absolutely epic and give so much more depth to the original. I have played the SOM on the original SNES when it was first released. I still beat the game several times a year. Thanks to all involved for creating this masterpiece.
Your Secret of Mana experience sounds like my Ocarina of Time experience 😊 I recently played Secret of Mana for the first time ever and deeply enjoyed it, though it was so tragic to me 😢 And now we enjoyed the same touching arrangement here Thanks for sharing!
Finally got to listen to this all the way through! Wonderful arrangement, Rebecca! Every moment has such beautiful orchestration. It was a great pleasure to be involved with this; thanks so much for having me aboard. Cheers to all the other collaborators as well! :)
I came across this wonderful work of art and that warm, fuzzy feeling overcame my heart and brought back so many fond memories. Now I'm getting my SNES and old Panasonic CRT TV out of storage and giving my favorite game its first playthrough in many, many years. Thank you for the inspiration.
Hell yeah. Now this is magic, hope Enix gets jealous off the real remaster ost. Good job to all of you guys. This isn't easy, but art is easiest when it comes from the heart.
Not sure if I'm actually first at this point, and I'm only partway through the video, but I must say, this sounds PHENOMENAL! I wish big music collabs like this were more common.
Many things were missed out. 30 minutes of music is no small endeavor, though! That being said, Whisper and Mantra and Mystic Invasion are siblings. ;)
You make amazing music Rebecca, keep up the awesome work! I listen to your stuff a lot when I'm doing paperwork. Makes it feel a little more like playing an RPG!
Simply amazing! The original has always been one of my favorites. I love how it still conveys the emotions of the work properly. To be honest I think I like your version way more than the remake's.
Once again I thank you for your dedication to making this and for the untold hours of joy mixed with melancholy it has brought me. ❤ You are a part of my journey here on earth. I thank you that it is a peaceful portion of my heart and mind where you have been given a place to dwell. May all good things come your way. Thank you for sharing your talent and time.
Wonderful work, bringing together music and curated images, but I have to get ready for work, now. The Hack RVA workshop club is always hungry for music for work time listening, so I've added this video to my list for playing there. Thank you. I visited from a link supplied by Rikk Wolf, of the Robot Co-Op channel, where they are playing through the 21st century remake of the game, from which this music springs. I didn't grow up with Nintendo, so it doesn't mean as much to me, but I still enjoy this. Thank you all. :)
Your medleys are always awesome, with this giant collaboration you've created something wonderful I love Materia Collective work, they always have top level arrangements, I'm very happy you've made a collab with them. You've achieved a great collection of covers & original tracks + a bunch of beautiful medleys You're putting a lot of energy in your music and it's giving great results :)
Thank you for this. Really. My daughter is only one year old, but I can tell you that she is going to enjoy your music, hopefully as much as I do. The music and all the illustrations are really an immense tribute to this beloved game from my childhood. Again, thank you. (I just wish you`d make some parts longer :), and too bad that you did not include Still of The Night)
Thank you so much! I have a very long cover of "The Still of the Night" on my channel if you'd like to hear. :) I also have extended versions of some of these movements uploaded! :D
All these different artstyles yet one singular amazing fantasy. This video is bound to touch the hearts of many. "Thank you so much" is all I really have to say.

Music at 16:30 ?
You may laugh at me, but the arrangement made me cry. It brought some past memories of my brother and my childhood.
I think it's important that we feel these emotions more directly, sometimes!
The game was an epic piece of my childhood.
I know exactly how you feel. Its those dam Ninjas cutting onions again..... deffenitly not tears of enjoing the sweet feeling of nostaglgia.
These games are designed to do that, they choke me up to grow up with these games. If anything just shows your appreciation for the artistic creation these games where. Allot of feeling sensitive towards things is because they spark old memories, times outside of the chaos.

Wow. Amazing Work. Secret of Mana is my absolute and undisputed all time favourite video game (I finished it around 30 times and am still playing it at least one time per year). And one of the most amazing parts of the game was this fabulous music which gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. And you just nailed it.

This absolutely overshadows every other musical score I've ever heard for Secret of Mana. Beautiful work. Thank for for sharing this with the world.
Thank you, too! ^_^

Me and my friend scrounging up the money to buy the game.
Riding bikes up to eb games to buy it.
Untangling snes cords
Talking to each other our grade school crushes
Scrounging up more money to go buy snacks
Head banging to the dark litch music
Charging up weapons to the max and loving the max charge animations
Busting out the flamie drum
Soaring through the sky never ending story style.
Fighting the mana beast.
And the end credits and the few seconds of silence and my friend and I realized it was all over
T_T
I'm pleased that you were brought back to that state. When this happens, it's almost like receiving a gift. ^_^
Literally sounds like my childhood. Except my brother bought me the game on a whim when I was 8... and couldn't fathom the imagination influx he'd given me.

God, that transition to The Dark Star was absolute perfection.
Thanks so much! :D
It's been 25 years since I played this. When "Prophecy" started at 19:07, I actually teared up. The most beautiful song from the greatest soundtrack in gaming history
I appreciate your passion!
ya know there is something about Prophecy isn't there.....
21:15 it is
Finally, the TH-cam algorithm has given me something wonderful today
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Dude, I’m playing this same game with THIS as the soundtrack and the TV on mute: perfection.
I'm glad you liked it that much! :D Thanks!
This is magic. It truly is, some of the best music ever made.
Kikuta is amazing! ^^
I don't know if you will ever read this comment but I just wanted to say I love this entire medley. There's something about Secret of Mana that makes me think of spring. And living in Alberta I especially look forward to Spring. Sometimes when Winter's seemed to drag on a little too long and I listen to this medley and think of spring. It helps lift my spirit often.
Thank you. The game reminds me of summer! But a little bit of spring, as well. I associate it with memories of walking around town in May and June with flowers growing all over the place.
Thank you for this beautiful trip down memory lane
Actually un fucking real how good this is. 100k views? FUck me, deserves 10mil+.
Brought these compositions TO LIIIIIIIIIIFE. Brought. Them. JUSTICE. Thank you thank you thank you.
That eternal recurrence gave me the goosebumps... simply magnificent

Oh, thank you so much! I really appreciate that!
The feels at 19:07 . Prophecy has always been one of my favorite tracks from this album and the rendition here was amazing.
Thanks! ^_^ It was one of the more difficult (as in technical) pieces for the performers, surpassed only by Meridian dance.
Rebecca, it is so sad they didn´t pick your remakes and arrangements for the remake. Really, honestly your versions sound a thousand times better and are absolutely touching. Thank you so much for your great and astonishing work! Much of love
Right in the feels... and I just started. Absolutely beautiful
You have done humanity a great service, great job!
Thank you.
It is not only the score but the love, which you have towards this game (and its music), which is totally appreciated by me / us! I can hear it through every note in the arrangement.
Thank you so much! Yes, this score means the world to me! ^_^
The soundtrack to SoM makes me feel invincible and so vulnerable at the same time... Makes me want to jump for joy and cry at the same time lol.....
You deserve so much more subs and views
I appreciate that! Thanks!
30 seconds in and I concur :::clicks subscribe:::
*so many more

So much more attention is owed to these videos, indeed.
Secret of Mana tracks just…hit different. Can’t explain it.

Thank you so much! ^_^

Its beautiful Kee. All the artists who helped to work on this deserve praise.
Thank you once again, Rory!
30 minutes of music from one of my favorite childhood treasures, and with the help of some wonderful collaborators. This is gonna be a fun journey.
Wow... literally got chills listening to this. Especially Prophecy, dark Star and Meridian Dance which were my favorite songs from the game. The only word that springs to mind is "AMAZING"
Thank you so much!! :'D

Thank you!
From What The Forest Taught Me to the end. Thanks for making me cry.
I'm glad it moved you!
I don't know how this slipped through, I only ever listened to your contributions to the OCR album 'Resonance of the Pure Land', I never knew you had a 30-minute medley! I am so delighted ☺️. Amazing work!
Thanks for listening. I have other Secret of Mana songs as well! :D
This makes me all warm and cozy inside, thanks for this piece of art.
Exactly how I feel about this. Secret of mana = all good
I mean I might as well listen to beautiful music while I stay up way too late on the computer, so thanks! You have triumphed!
Haha! I hope you enjoyed that evening. ^_^
I quite enjoy sitting around doing nothing of consequence with your music in the background, yes.
I love how authentic this is. I think I prefer these versions over the recent remake. Great job! 👍
Thank you! :)
Amazing, I'm falling in love a second time with the game's soundtracks
Its just unreal how much nostalgia this evokes in me, i thank you form the bottom of my heartt for giving me all these wonderful memories rn!

Thank you!
Reminds me of playing this on emulator with a friend of mine from school. We called the MC ''Billy'' ad let the AI control that character, ofc we didn't expect a lot from him while we abused the magic system. However on school we always had this inside joke when we needed to do a cooperative task ''It's cool, we'll let Billy tank the essay'' etc. Needless to say all other kids knew we were (unmotivated) nerds and just brushed it off, but we had a blast and that's a memory to cherish.
I absolutely love this
I can't stop getting surprised by your work, always lovely, always sublime!
Thank you!
nostalgia throught the roof
at some tracks i had to shed some tears , because i got some memories at a most beautiful childhood with my family and friend who were alive at that time. now time has changed a lot. god bless u all
I'm glad you could reconnect with those times.
It’s beautiful.
Memories are beautiful and they are, what we are made of. Everyone has his personal legacy to certain soundtracks. Every time i heard these, i feel like drowning in nostalgia. It’s like my alcohol, where i forgot the present. Dunno if it is healthier. I don’t care anymore.
Thankyou for this work of yours 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 it’s a great gift.
Thank you! It can be healthy or unhealthy. That all depends on your mind.
This is such amazing quality! The orchestration and arrangements - really taking these classic tunes to a whole new level!
Great work! Keep it up!
Thanks a lot! :D
Wow. This was incredible to hear again with living instruments.
Thank you! ^_^
So beautiful!
What a wonderful thing to wake up to. That's about as good as timing can get. Thanks for the medley
Thank you. ^_^
Square recently released a new version of the game, a remake, on Steam. 3D, voice acting, the whole shebang. Did you get a chance to play it?
Excellent work. Thank you for sharing this!
I found "Ceremony" to be particularly magnificent. It definitely creates the sense of unease that should be felt in these dungeons: Thanatos is crazy, the dead linger, tomatoes are trying to kill you, and somebody keeps ringing the damn ceremonial bells.
Thanks. ^^
Fantastic! Thanks everyone!
I'm in tears, this is just beyond any remix/cover I've ever heard. Thank you for all of your hard work.
Thank you too. ^_^
I keep coming back to this... thank you, it's so wonderful!
I'm really glad it brings you joy! 🍰
@@RebeccaETripp One year later, and I still come back to this!
I love the music, absolutely epic and give so much more depth to the original. I have played the SOM on the original SNES when it was first released. I still beat the game several times a year. Thanks to all involved for creating this masterpiece.
I'm glad you enjoyed it that much, since the soundtrack means so much to you! Thanks! ^^
Your Secret of Mana experience sounds like my Ocarina of Time experience 😊
I recently played Secret of Mana for the first time ever and deeply enjoyed it, though it was so tragic to me 😢
And now we enjoyed the same touching arrangement here
Thanks for sharing!
Just in time for the remake! You get special props for covering my favorite game of ALL TIME!!! It was a joy to listen too!
Thank you. ^_^ I'm glad you enjoyed it! :D
Finally got to listen to this all the way through! Wonderful arrangement, Rebecca! Every moment has such beautiful orchestration. It was a great pleasure to be involved with this; thanks so much for having me aboard. Cheers to all the other collaborators as well! :)
Cheers. ^_^v
I came across this wonderful work of art and that warm, fuzzy feeling overcame my heart and brought back so many fond memories. Now I'm getting my SNES and old Panasonic CRT TV out of storage and giving my favorite game its first playthrough in many, many years. Thank you for the inspiration.
Excellent music and art! I never understood why the little yellow rabbit things were a threat ha ha
Beautiful work! Sending lots of love from France
Thank you so much!
Best fantasy-JRPG ever and class-A Soundtrack!
Beautifully done, I love the transitions from one song to another and how each of them had a beautiful, full feeling.
This is an INCREDIBLE arrangement. Kudos to you. Wonderful!
Thanks a lot! :D
This is incredible. The strings just give me even more chills than the original.
Thank you! ^_^ The string players were amazing.
I'm so happy for this arrangement! Once again, your work (along w/ everyone else) is spectacular.
With the HD remake 2 weeks away, this is PERFECT :)
Thank you. ^_^
Phenomenal! Absolutely chilling and mesmerizing!
Thanks so much! :D
Beautiful!!
Thanks! ^_^
Hell yeah.
Now this is magic, hope Enix gets jealous off the real remaster ost.
Good job to all of you guys.
This isn't easy, but art is easiest when it comes from the heart.
Not sure if I'm actually first at this point, and I'm only partway through the video, but I must say, this sounds PHENOMENAL! I wish big music collabs like this were more common.
I love this! this arrangement sounds as if it sprung straight from the world of mana itself... if only mystic invasion was on this list as well :(
Many things were missed out. 30 minutes of music is no small endeavor, though! That being said, Whisper and Mantra and Mystic Invasion are siblings. ;)
Oh man, this is beautiful. No, I'm not crying, why would you ask me such a thing? (I'm totally crying! And that's ok!) Well done!
You make amazing music Rebecca, keep up the awesome work! I listen to your stuff a lot when I'm doing paperwork. Makes it feel a little more like playing an RPG!
That made me smile! ^_^
Simply amazing! The original has always been one of my favorites. I love how it still conveys the emotions of the work properly. To be honest I think I like your version way more than the remake's.
Thanks. I've been hearing that a lot. I haven't played the remake so I guess I'm in for a surprise.
Thank you for sharing. These Mana songs remind me with good childhood and when Squaresoft was able to create real magic.
Thank you! ^_^
Once again I thank you for your dedication to making this and for the untold hours of joy mixed with melancholy it has brought me. ❤
You are a part of my journey here on earth.
I thank you that it is a peaceful portion of my heart and mind where you have been given a place to dwell.
May all good things come your way. Thank you for sharing your talent and time.
Thanks for listening! I'm honoured!
Wonderful work, bringing together music and curated images, but I have to get ready for work, now. The Hack RVA workshop club is always hungry for music for work time listening, so I've added this video to my list for playing there. Thank you. I visited from a link supplied by Rikk Wolf, of the Robot Co-Op channel, where they are playing through the 21st century remake of the game, from which this music springs. I didn't grow up with Nintendo, so it doesn't mean as much to me, but I still enjoy this. Thank you all. :)
Your medleys are always awesome, with this giant collaboration you've created something wonderful
I love Materia Collective work, they always have top level arrangements, I'm very happy you've made a collab with them.
You've achieved a great collection of covers & original tracks + a bunch of beautiful medleys
You're putting a lot of energy in your music and it's giving great results :)
Thank you so much. ^_^v
Agreed 100%!!
Keep up the awesome work!
Thank you for this. Really.
My daughter is only one year old, but I can tell you that she is going to enjoy your music, hopefully as much as I do.
The music and all the illustrations are really an immense tribute to this beloved game from my childhood.
Again, thank you.
(I just wish you`d make some parts longer :), and too bad that you did not include Still of The Night)
Thank you so much! I have a very long cover of "The Still of the Night" on my channel if you'd like to hear. :) I also have extended versions of some of these movements uploaded! :D
*WOW* What a great collab! Projects like this are always a ton of fun to make, good job!
This is better on every level than the official music of the Secret of Mana remake. Thanks to all of the musicians here who put this together!
All these different artstyles yet one singular amazing fantasy. This video is bound to touch the hearts of many.
"Thank you so much" is all I really have to say.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. I put a lot of love into this one!
