I could never count how much I revisited this video. It’s the best cover I’ve seen. I always come here whenever I want to hear the song and or whenever I want to see references on how to play it. I’m currently on measure 36 and it’s quite giving me troubles. I wish I could play it like you. Hope you make a cover of Noctis’ theme too.
I am incredibly impressed with your performance. This is a beautiful piece of music and your technique/ portrayal is wonderful. I also have a Kawai, excellent choice of piano!
Best cover of Somnus I've heard so far. To be honest, I almost wanted to ask if you were a concert pianist or conservatory teacher. Can't describe how surprised I was to find out that you treat piano playing as a hobby. Your technique and sound are definitely among the top on youtube.

@@SHIROGAMI YES! this guy is LEGIT one of the finest and most talented piano players i have ever heard. And also plays rpg music like some angel of divine sonic order. I feel very lucky to be able to hear this person play. Fantastic.
@@diafenix He has amazing control and feeling and fully understand a meaning and idea of each note he plays. And also the quality of recordings is amazing! This is how modern piano player should sound! All his covers sounds more pleasant to the ear than any other cover or even the original.
I didn't think it was possible, but, as long as video games have been around, this manages to be one of the most beautiful pieces of video game music I've ever heard. Great performance, too. Thanks for this.
I watch this like every-other day, no matter how hard i try i cant come close to the enchanting delivery of yours! Definitely the best cover out there!! More life to rachmaster
I bought the ff xv piano collections book quite a while ago but haven’t really opened it. I heard your recording multiple times and come back to it repeatedly. Today, I looked at the score and just realized how wonderfully you performed the rhythmic triplets in the left hand in the 2nd half. Expression can only be built upon technique. Your technique, was immaculate. Thank you for uploading this wonderful performance.
Hi! I’m having trouble getting the same level of high quality audio that you have in your videos when using the Garritan CFX. Your audio sounds so clear. Mine sounds a little muddy. Do you normalize your audio? If you could walk me through your process I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for your time. Great playing as always
Ff xv to me was a long hymn and elegy to the three heroes, nyx, Luna and noctis. Did you play the game? I am mesmerized by how you captured the feelings of the game. You are fearless in opening up your heart to channel the spirit of the piece and the game.
Would you be open to playing other pieces from moonlit melodies collection? It would be a very special treat for me to hear. No worries if you aren’t interested. I’m grateful for all your uploads.
Great playing Rach3master, i saw your other videos playing the yamaha N1, i know Novus is better but can you say is Kawai Vpc 1 maybe better than Yamaha Avantgrand? i am planning to play it with Garritan...
@@rach3master i found used Avantgrand N1 for decent money , but have you tried novus NV5, in your opinion is N1 better or not , i know it is not in the same category , but the feel and the action is my concern
am here don’t understand why u got so few subscribers..... u are better than many famous youtubers uhm can u try sadame x 1999? One of my favorite piano arrangement but on youtube are so few people playing it goodly pls grant my wish
I just realized something. Chopin wrote music specifically for the piano by exploiting the quality of piano sound and the mechanics of the instrument. Your playing is in the same vein. Chopin wrote music for pianists like you. Thank you for sharing your playing.
Hi, I'm a fellow NV10 owner. I have read in previous comments about your setup using the GFX. But does that play through your piano speakers? And if not, do you use headphones or play using a stock NV10 sound?

nice! I really like the way this piece gradually builds intensity from beginning to the climax.

Agreed...
Agreed, no other covers have been able to nail both fluidity and the tempo.
Rach3master’s version is a true inspiration. I even included him in my video description.
Though I agree I do think it's a bit too choppy near the end

1:47 that transition was pure magic
1:38 is the most epic part

Sounds like the performance of the cd! Incredible!
WOW. 2 years late to the party my ass, party hadn't started till' you showed up! This was absolutely insane, your take on it is wonderful.
Is the party over already? Man I really joined the party way too late. Just released Somnus.
Wow! What a great surprise! I was wondering why this one jump in while listening to your whole list and then realize it's a new update! Thank you :)
Thanks for listening to all my videos :)
bravo maestro. bravissimo.

…Masterpiece…great performance sir!
Amazing!!! what a good sound.
I have always said this piece really reminds of "Vector to the Heavens", well it's the same composer.
Amazing work.
This is my ultimate goal with learning the piano
There is so much musicality and emotion in your playing. It's insane.
I was already crying in the first minute. Bless your talent man.
The sound of Kawai is unparalleled.
I got the CN301, but hopefully I get more powerful like this one soon
Your technique is actually fantastic
wow!!!!!!! you made me dream!
Bravo, thank you for inspiring me to play this!
I love this. I want to learn it one day
Absolutely fantastic, really wonderful!!
Oh I love this theme, great performance.
Beautifully done!
Absolutely beautiful, I'm glad I subscribed! Keep up the awesome music! :D
Well played!
this is pure perfection
I hope you can make a "To Zanarkand" from FFX by nobuo cover. I'm so happy I stumbled on your channel, I play your videos before I go to sleep.
Like this a lot!!! Well done!!
Beautiful ❤️
Just as good as the official, if not better and far superior than the distant worlds version.
Truly, that talent that you wield is most impressive.
that's fire

The only thing I do after recording is boost the volume. Your hardware may be underpowered, I don't know...
Hey I'm having the same issue. Have you fixed it?
Ff xv to me was a long hymn and elegy to the three heroes, nyx, Luna and noctis. Did you play the game? I am mesmerized by how you captured the feelings of the game. You are fearless in opening up your heart to channel the spirit of the piece and the game.
Thank you! I did play the game and was somewhat disappointed, given the immense hype surrounding it, but the music itself was great.
What a nice sound you play!!!
Please let me play the violin with your music.
I definitely write about you on my page.
Would you be open to playing other pieces from moonlit melodies collection? It would be a very special treat for me to hear. No worries if you aren’t interested. I’m grateful for all your uploads.
Symphonic in texture and voicing. An orchestra without an orchestra
I am at a loss of words.
Great playing Rach3master, i saw your other videos playing the yamaha N1, i know Novus is better but can you say is Kawai Vpc 1 maybe better than Yamaha Avantgrand? i am planning to play it with Garritan...
Thanks! Avantgrand will have a better key action than Kawai VPC 1.

I love your videos and admire your amazing talent. It seems you've left Yamaha for Kawai. Do you enjoy the Novus NV10 more than Yamaha?
Yes I like the Novus only because the action feels a little more realistic to me.
I just realized something. Chopin wrote music specifically for the piano by exploiting the quality of piano sound and the mechanics of the instrument. Your playing is in the same vein. Chopin wrote music for pianists like you. Thank you for sharing your playing.
How long did you studied Piano? I love the song!
About 22 years now.
Hi, I'm a fellow NV10 owner. I have read in previous comments about your setup using the GFX. But does that play through your piano speakers? And if not, do you use headphones or play using a stock NV10 sound?
I only play through headphones with the CFX.
WHERE DO YOU GET ALL THESE PIANOS?
Original, then this.
Another 2 people have no souls.
