If this has been posted before, I apologize. I just found this video of a girl playing the Final Fantasy 10 theme on piano, and pretty well I might add. As I listened, I debated whether or not to post it, but her facial expression at the end clinched it.

Take a gander!

Mm. Quality wise, this is seriously not that good. The beginning is missing significant notes, the playing pace is rushed with no patience in the chord transitions.. and etc. Of course, it's just casual so this could not be a good measure of her skill.

Not worth the post.. : p

It was a little shaky, but like you said, I think it's just a casual mess-around type of thing. I'm sure if she wanted to do a nice rendition she probably could.

Seriously. I'm not grading her. It's just something I thought was neat. And since I quit listening to FF music after 6, I don't even know how that tune goes.

Probably one of Uematsu's best tunes.

I wouldn't have even checked it out if it wasn't a girl.  I suppose that's the only reason it was posted.  big_smile

On a side note, I didn't hear any missed notes, just some missed pauses.

I'm no Nobuo fanboy, but he's got talent. That song gets me every time, what a nice tune.

Yeah, I thought her performance was cool just for the fact that SOMEONE'S playing it, and it was done rather nicely. It may not be symphony-hall quality, but hey, the vast majority of piano players are amateurs. I always like it when someone plays a decent piano rendition of VGM. And yeah, that opening tune to FF10 just gets me...It's simple, but it's beautifully sad, especially when Tidus talks about wanting to tell his story.

And regarding other VGM piano playing that gives me goosebumps:

You gotta love the Totoro and soot sprite in the foreground, heh.

I see that there are a lot of VGM piano playing on YT...I'm gonna have to check this out, heh.

Ooh, here's one of someone playing the Piano Collections version of Tina's Theme:
