Eyes on Me - Final Fantasy VIII (Harp and Voice Cover) (April Fools)
Alternate title: Eyes on Me but it's the version I was hired to sing for a child's birthday party (sorry Spencer). Based on true events when I was in high school. Minus the harp.
I'm actually not that sorry Spencer, if you ever find and remember this, my choir friends and I had a great time chaperoning the party and doing our level best to give everyone ear damage, as we were asked to do. I hope you had a great birthday :)

Просмотров 54510 месяцев назад
Solo harp cover/arrangement of Cradle of Hope (Elysion area Omicron Tribal Quest Theme) from Final Fantasy XIV. A really lovely remixed version of Close in the Distance for a really nice tribal quest series :) (As of this video's posting, I... haven't finished them yet... I did just get the mount though :D) (As of 1.5 weeks past this video's posting, I have finished them and also I still love s...

Sultana Dreaming (Ul'dah Night Theme) - FFXIV Harp Cover/Arrangement
Просмотров 437Год назад
Solo harp cover/arrangement of Sultana Dreaming (Ul'dah Night Theme) from Final Fantasy XIV. Also, my starting city as a forever MNK main... always feels like home :) I've been wanting to do this one for years! Eventually I'll get around to all the ARR tracks on the list... XD This is honestly my favorite night theme out of the three starting cities, and considering it's my starting city... I h...
"Quando m'en vo" (Musetta's Waltz) from Puccini's "La Boheme"
Просмотров 337Год назад
Puccini's Musetta's Waltz on solo harp, transcribed by Yolanda Kondonassis. Originally featured on her album "The Romantic Harp". Performed by Nicole Chang. I've been in love with this version of Musetta's Waltz ever since first hearing it on Yolanda Kondonassis' album and have had the music for it since 2010. I finally decided to learn it this year, and it's a regular on my giglist. :D Music a...
FFXIV Dawntrail Reveal Teaser Reaction (2023 NA Fanfest)
Просмотров 402Год назад
Livestream reaction to the Dawntrail reveal. Yes, my dog sat himself on my lap and stayed there for like half the keynote. I'm personally very excited to be exploring a new continent, still hanging out with our fellow Scions, and just doing something much more lighthearted than Endwalker. Though I fully suspect sobbing at some point, since Ishikawa is in charge...
Star Rail (Login) - Honkai: Star Rail Harp Cover
Просмотров 353Год назад
Solo harp cover of Star Rail from Honkai: Star Rail. Ever wanted to travel the stars? I certainly do :) This work is a submission for the 2023 Honkai: Star Rail creator competition. So uh... the first week of launch, I got very inspired after finishing Jarilo-VI and arranged this quite literally during that week. Unfortunately, I ended up being extremely busy and didn't have time to properly wo...
Nicole Chang - Masters Harp Recital (2021)
Просмотров 408Год назад
Masters Harp Recital of Nicole Chang, performed April 10, 2021 at Walter Hall, Faculty of Music at University of Toronto. The video had to be a bit stitched together due to issues with the livestream, and nearly all instruction was done remotely due to COVID lockdowns. All COVID protocols were followed in putting this performance together. In hindsight, I had picked a somewhat over-ambitious re...
Those We Can Yet Save - FFXIV Harp Cover/Arrangement
Просмотров 722Год назад
Solo harp cover/arrangement of Those We Can Yet Save from FFXIV: Endwalker. I love how reminiscent it is of the ARR sanctuary theme, but goes into its own thing using Footfalls. Also it's a very low-range track and it's fun playing in the mid-low range of the harp :D Also, I apologize for the smudge on the camera lens - I didn't realize it was there until after rendering, and because of how I d...
Grammeowster Chef's Warm Stew! - Monster Hunter World Harp Cover/Arrangement
Просмотров 283Год назад
Bonus cat. Arranged for the January 2023 Dwelling of Duels Brevity competition! Apologies for its extreme shortness, but it will not be extended because the original track a 27 second jingle and Grammeowster Chef wants you to eat her stew :3 Arranging was fairly straightforward - generally, I was going for a warm, but cute tone (hence a lot of lower register muffling), with a few sparkly bits t...
Hardest Parts in Review - 2022
Просмотров 74Год назад
Rather than do a traditional year in review, I thought it'd be fun to do a compilation of what I found most technically difficult in each cover/arrangement in 2022, and why. Because I'm really quite proud of being able to overcome them, even if only barely in a couple cases XD Thank you everyone for your support this past year! Really excited for new things to come in 2023 :D (Thumbnail done by...
Channel Announcement
Просмотров 296Год назад
Officially a harp channel now~ But still a nerdy one. There just might be more classical stuff, occasionally. I figured I'd make a video for the announcement since this was kind of on its way for a while now, and... honestly, it's much more fair for what I want to do. Thank you all for the support over the years, and let there be more music! And FFXIV trailer reactions, because I still like doi...
Beyond the Wall (Fringes Day Theme) - FFXIV Harp Cover/Arrangement
Просмотров 720Год назад
Solo harp cover/arrangement of Beyond the Wall (the Fringes day theme) from FFXIV Stormblood. The music of those Rauhbahn EX sufferers and Ananta tribal questers. Been a while for this one! I first arranged it the summer of Stormblood's release, but it sat for several years as I was stuck trying to figure out some of the transitions and playability of things. And now... here it is! Decided to h...
City of Flickering Destruction - Legend of Mana Harp Cover/Arrangement
Просмотров 2,8 тыс.2 года назад
Solo harp cover/arrangement of City of Flickering Destruction from Legend of Mana. That Jumi storyline, right? T_T This track means a lot to me because it's the track that inspired me to arrange VGM for the harp! I was going through a mildly rough time in my life (had a bad foot injury requiring screws... yeeeah) and Legend of Mana is the game that helped me through that the most. Then I heard ...
Edward's Harp - FFIV Harp Cover/Arrangement
Просмотров 5982 года назад
Harp cover/arrangement of Edward's Harp from Final Fantasy IV. Done in a mildly French-Romantic style, with the concept being if our favorite spoony bard had access to a full concert pedal harp. :D Really enjoyed arranging this! I wanted to tell a little bit of a story with it (hence the lone musical line at the start) that builds on itself, has some dramatic elements (considering the tragic co...

The Waking Sands - FFXIV Harp Arrangement
It’s your channel, make it how you feel it.
Very talented, miss
Got around to leveling botanist finally while waiting on 7.1 and had leve quests in Fringes - was nice to hear this gem of a theme again. Went right away to youtube to look for covers - glad to find your version. Beautifully arranged; played perfectly. Thank you!
I love this track, it sounds so calm
Thankyou for making this cover! Sounds beautiful, very faithful interpretation
Hi Nicole! Are you Korean?
Hello! I'm Taiwanese :)
@NicoleChangHarp Awesome! Great playing, by the way. Hope you return to Asia at some point. If I could go back in time, I would have majored in composition/orchestration. The Yasunori Mitsuda and Yoko Shimomura songbooks have a wealth of harp material worth glancing at. I'm sure you'll get many calls 📞 in the future for harpists wanted.
if I was a monster hunter I would love this song
Here from Roph. Beautiful music and wonderful playing!
Lahee, where is my cherry cola? I dont have Ebola We all hug Youshtolla :D
Do you know... la hee? :D :D :D
Not eyes on me...but tears on my ears🤣🤣
Exactly as Julia intended! heeheehee
Beautiful stuff, thank you!
beautiful
My favorite from Legend of Mana. Thank you. You played it so wonderfully!
Amazing skill fantastic selection
Beautifully played ❤
Perfect ❤
even though I'm a Gridanian myself, I gotta say that was a most excellent arrangement of that theme! 👏👏👏
Thank you! :D (I want to do Gridania too)
@@NicoleChangHarpooooh! I would love to hear that! I'll be sure to keep an eye out for it
This is actually pretty nuts. Respect!!
Very well done
:D :D :D
I'm singing along "tales of losssss..... And fire.... And faiiiithhhh"
Yes I know this particular leitmotif has no lyrics.
I first heard it in Chocobo's Dungeon lol. This is an amazin' cover!!
Beautifully performed, you have a lot of talent!
What's your harp story?
Not entirely sure what you mean by my harp story, but I started playing when I was 7 :) The harp that's in my videos, I've been playing since I was 9 (I was a very tall child) I actually do music full time now! :D
Wow, you're really good, thanks for sharing. I always thought this and Night in the Brume were dying for a harp arrangement.
My favorite song of ALL time, thank you for The vídeo.
Make an extended version of this, please. 10 hours
LOL XD For everyone's sanity, I will not
As a fellow harpist I am on my hands and knees BEGGINGGGG for the notes for your "I Want To Live" bg3 arrangement <3 <3 <3 If you have a patreon or somewhere we can support you, I'd love to contribute!
Hi! Thank you so much - I had a wonderful time putting together "I Want to Live" with Shea and I'm so happy that it worked out, both of us wanting to do it! I do actually have the draft I used for the BG3 arrangement on my Patreon (www.patreon.com/kiritheblue), but I do also have to apologize - I'm not super active doing covers/collabs this month because I'm focusing on orchestral audition rep, and I feel both very grateful to my Patrons but also awkward due to the recent (but imo, very important) shift. I do have a lot of other sheet music available there too though!
An absolute travesty when this occurs 😭
While I'm around, I figured I'd tap into another one, and I come to the conclusion that yeeeew toooob is stewpid. Like how in the world did this not get circulated so much more? This is a sweet sounding track, and your playing was 10/10! 👏 👏 👍 👍 🪽 🌟 🎶 🎵
It ended right when I was getting into it lol. Looks like I been trolled twice in a few days. Both by you. 😁 One by Shea. 🙂🙃🙂
I am a very serious harpist :)
Omg my ears... but I love this song anyway... having said that, I'm glad the video ended quickly 🤩
XD I didn't want to damage anyone's ears for longer than truly necessary
I love this so much!!
Great job! A fellow FF bud bright me here! Gave you like and sub!
Sheet music is even available for this, that's dedication.
Just in case one ever needs to accompany such an aspiring singer! :3 (I was actually very "wtf am I doing XD" when I put it together though)
Faye Wong got nothing on you. Well done! 👏👏
I think this singer has a bright singing future! ... maybe
Oh wow… Beautifully done!! 🫣🎵
i'm ded from the harp faces
Ah... At last, we see the face of this celebrated performance.
Bravo!
Just learned about your channel through shea’s. You’ve got a new follower, beautiful stuff 😊
Btw, I make mostly FF lofi music and ffxiv is where I want to dive on second semester of 2024
very nice <3
The harp reaction slays me! 😂
The harp faces are killing me
The face on your harp self 😂
... truly remarkable 🤣
I... may have had too much fun
This is so beautiful and emotional! I really love the build-up throughout your performance. I'm so happy I found you through your collab with Shea, your arrangements are so lovely and full.
This brings back memories
