I transcribe the piece from “Final Fantasy” that changed my life - Nobuo Uematsu

This man is still so influential!! 🔥

💙

This turned out so well! A good reminder of the importance of transcribing! Thank you Mattia!

Amazing as usual my dear Matt !

You gave this piece justice! Incredible stuff! Lush, gorgeous and beautiful!

For me, this is one of the best pieces ever created. It brings me to tears every time I hear it.

Mattia - so young - how? :)

Beautiful❤

yeap I play the piano of this piece since when I was 12 and still do now I"m 33.

Great content matt! whats your reverb? your mockups sounds super realistic

Finally some Final Fantasy love lol. Great video as always Mattia. I wonder if you'd ever be interested in transcribing something of Masashi Hamauzu's work (he worked side by side with Nobuo for FF10 and 10-2). Btw I don't know if you noticed Mattia, but the stereo width of the strings sounded a lot narrower in the end than they did when you were mocking everything up. I don't know if this was intentional decision on your part but it was just something I noticed. Cheers!!

Lets goooo! I'm glad you did this one – awesome job! What libraries are you using for the woodwinds? They sound tremendous.

Wow, that was amazing!

I love the way you explain things but i have one question, what plugins do you use.

I have a question, how long does it take you to find each part? (I'm guessing you do it by ear). In the video it looks like you listen to it once and know immediately all the parts but i understand that's just editing... So how many times do you relisten to every part?
Also, do you have any tips on how to develop listening skills (to recognize different instruments, chords and such).
Keep up the excellent work!

Aahw man! To Zanarkand! This is lovely!

Hey @MattiaChiappa , great job ! Do you think it would be possible and interesting to do a mock up of "one winged angel" by the god Nobuo Uematsu ?
Thank you for all your amazing videos :)

Can't believe, after following your channel for so long, that we really share this feeling, being To Zanarkand the piece that inspired my whole career as a composer. This is just nuts. So humbled by this realization. Thanks for sharing, Mattia!

So beautiful peace 👍

I honestly can't believe the flutist that this was written for didn't want it and it created a timeless piece. Awesome recreation!

Hi , can you explain why voicing chords for the Bassoon can be done, much lower than say, trombones and other low voice instruments. I’ve been doing some score study and noticed that composes use block voicing down to A and A flats in bass clef. Is this because they have a more pointed sound?
Thanking you in advance. Peter

This theme is so gorgeous!

Wow, really beautiful, great job! 🖤

Actually the first full piano piece I learned to play. And I still play the game, too!

Love this! I remember being moved by the piece the first time i sat down to play the game. Fast forward a few years and I have more than one piano students who ask to learn how to play the piece, so I help them. Fast forward to a few weeks ago when i find out that some good friends play recordings of this to help their young son sleep. It's cool how so many of us have stories around this niche but iconic piece, and part of me wants to do an orchestration for my friends' child now, good stuff :)

Good job as always, love your content man

Awesome!

best song ever made
reason i make music

'''I think this is the best I can do without having to... learn it.'' I quit. That is amazing.
