  • Coincidentally, I was preparing for FFXIV's Shadowbringers tonight, and the very last trial i had to complete was Gilgamesh himself! It was kind of fun hearing his music during the fight. I'd have to say the making of this video exceeded the difficulty of the trial though!
    I knew the only way to film this was to get a clear shot of my hands on that famous sus chord run at the beginning. One of the fun ways of practicing this piece was to play it with the OST. It's definitely tough keeping up to tempo! Can you spot a (somewhat) obvious note mistake somewhere? I thought it was correct until the day I recorded. And then there was no going back HAHA.
    Thank you to everyone who spends some time to watch and comment here. I haven't been good about responding to comments lately, since I have a TON of huge projects happening right now. But please know they're much appreciated and I will get to as many as I can...and soon!
    Also...what do you think of me releasing a FFVII album next March?!

    To a layman in the area such as myself, this seems to be perhaps the most challenging one I've seen you play! At least when it comes to speed precision and such control over such a wide range of octaves, you completely dominate the piano! This is simply breathtaking and I believe my favourite video of you playing so far!! It's so fast and precise, and it is one of my favourite songs from FFV OST!! Thank you so much Kara!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D

I love this and I don't even know if I've heard a piano rendition of this song I've even liked.
