To this day 117 from the Halo 4 soundtrack has been my favorite piece of music to come out of the Halo franchise. Unpopular opinion but it was fresh and original and I think captured the spirit of John better than anything else. I would love it if you revisited this piece now 8 years later to see what you'd come up with, you've grown immensely as a pianist since this video.
@@GR33TINGSEARTHL1NGS Personally Martin's work is still my favorite. Even though I feel like the work he did for Destiny was mediocre at best. I feel he really drove the Halo franchise, and Bungie wrecked it all. People talk about how terrible 343 is, but Bungie basically left a pot of gold to pursue a generic DLC based game. Might as well just be Fortnite.
Ive been listening to this cover for about 11 years now. Im just this moment appreciating the likeness in how you closed this song with one of the motifs in Halo ODST, I believe the intervals between the notes are identical and, intentionally or not, instead of finishing the song on plain chords as the song does, you've thoughtfully ended it with a Halo motif from a totally separate game. This cover will never not blow my mind, and I love that Im still finding new reasons to appreciate it. You are a god amongst men. I dream to someday be able to play this piece.
Im a huge halo fan from the beginning and im a huge fan of the score of all halos, but this is the best thing iv heard on piano EVER, u sir deserve more credit foe someone ur age, keep it up ur incredible :)
Jesus Christ this video healed my keyboard, it didn't work this morning but after going into my history and opening this video up again it worked. HAIL AKMIGONE
I think that it could be because iPrometeo343, a Spanish-speaker youtuber with 32,000 subscribers, liked your video. However, I came here and listened to this beautiful piece performed by a person with impressive dexterity. It is like a deluge of emotions. ¡Gracias!
I second this. This guy's talent is amazing, his hands were going so fast, and with such precision.... there is only one explanation..... He's a robot.
I love both their work for different reasons. I like Marty as it has a bigger emphasis on action and pride as well as a classic veterancy to it, but I like Neil for the emotional depth that is conveyed through his works.
Really nice work with these. Keep working on it and you'll become an expert at transcribing these pieces with complete accuracy. This is a much better job than I would've done.
Akmigone, This is truly an inspiration. Today I have had my first piano lesson in hope of being as good as you one day, as well as getting one step closer to playing this. Thank you.
I never thought the 117 theme would be that amazing on piano. Very well done. I favrit, like, and subscribe to you. Can't wait to hear other halo piano covors! :)
very nice job. I know is an old video but still, my first time seeing so it is new to me. I think this is just a brilliantly inspired song, very much in the same category as something Hans Zimmer would do. Very theatrical and dramatic, as good a rendition as this is, nothing can replace the orchestral sounds of the original.
are there sheets for this specific version? i want to learn this one, in particular the part from 2:37 to 3:10, but i have no idea which bar it starts at
I played this video to the ending of Halo 4 the song matched it awesomely. but very good job *thumbs up* I have actually been wanting to learn this myself.

I agree. To me, it should've been Master Chief's official them from there on.
I held this same opinion until just Yesterday when I realised how amazing Finale from ODST really is.

Almost 10 years later and this is still one of my favourite RUclips videos of all time.
The theme in itself is already epic , now I love it even more
32 elites disliked this video
30 elites. I think two grunts disliked it as well :P
and 1 jackal
Try to imagine an elite dancing to this song gracefully
make that 2 jackals
what about the grants
117, definitely my favorite tune from the game

Anthony Aldrete Thank you! :)
Seriously, this really is an EPIC piano cover. Great job. I'm actually trying to learn this myself, but the sheet music is hard to find.
***** I'm afraid I don't really know what MIDI is. Is it a program of some kind?
***** Though, I actually managed to ear-teach myself some parts, so props on making it easy enough to ear-play.
@@agentoregon2794 midi is a "file type" for audio. used in old old games like pokemon and mario to make music
hey thanks for accepting my video response, this is my favorite song off of halo for ost! :) wish I could play like this

No but seriously. You have talent. So good my friend.
ShyGuyMudkip Haha, thank you very much!
My father started teaching me piano a month ago. I hope I can play some of this music soon enough. Great video by the way.
If you have the passion for it you can learn fast enough
This song,117, always reminded me of the good times me and my friends had before i moved, this made me almost cry. Thank you.
I second this. This guy's talent is amazing, his hands were going so fast, and with such precision.... there is only one explanation..... He's a robot.
My goodness, that left hand is RIDICULOUS. Great job!!
I love both their work for different reasons. I like Marty as it has a bigger emphasis on action and pride as well as a classic veterancy to it, but I like Neil for the emotional depth that is conveyed through his works.
For me it's definitely the halo songs. Your doing an excellent job with them!

Really nice work with these. Keep working on it and you'll become an expert at transcribing these pieces with complete accuracy. This is a much better job than I would've done.
What's amazingly clever about this song is the way the notes are written in bursts of 1 - 1 - 7.
Akmigone, This is truly an inspiration. Today I have had my first piano lesson in hope of being as good as you one day, as well as getting one step closer to playing this. Thank you.
Brilliant cover. Got a lot of feeling into it and fits the tone of the game very well.
I never thought the 117 theme would be that amazing on piano. Very well done. I favrit, like, and subscribe to you. Can't wait to hear other halo piano covors! :)

And i would like to know which piano do you use :) ?
Imagine how epic it would be if you played this and the original version at the same time.

Amazing as always. How many takes did it take you to get this result? 2 more questions: how do you record your audio? And what Digital Piano is this?

This sounds really good, your have some awesome skill =)
Oh man, this was good. You really outta try "Unforgotten" from Halo 2. You'll hit the core of peoples' souls with that one if you play it right.
Your hands are like two angry spiders, jumping fast over your Keyboard :)
