To what corners of the world have you travelled? My dear Fratley... I climbed the highest mountains only to hear rumours of your victories... I searched the deepest valleys only to find your footsteps. But I never found you. And in the end, I heard something... something unbearable!"
When I was young, I loved Freya because she seemed so cool. Playing it again now I love her strength in facing tragic circumstances and I really wish we could have seen more development in her story in the last chapters of the game. Great version
At least she's still the best damage dealer early in the game. (Gets her Ultimate Weapon in Disk Three, and has an attack that guarantees 9999 damage before that.)
FFIX's characters and their relationships as well as their development are probably the best in any Final Fantasy... they're woven into the story so phenomenally well
heck yeah, maybe one of the best songs in video game history. actually now that i think about it this composition is on the same level as Bach/Mozart imo
First notes of the flute, I got chills. I love Freya's theme. The steady build from the wistful flute to the bold, noble brass is magnificent. I'd love to see what you could do with Burmecia's theme, the kingdom of eternal rain.
Freya is one of the most interesting Characters in the whole game i think and its impressive how well you have redone her theme. She has so much hurt and still she keeps up her hope and energy to keep going. Freya will never be forgotten by us all!
I feel like this version really emphasizes further what a genuine war hero Freya is, and at such a young age too. And let's always appreciate her unbelievable emotional strength too--she went through so much that would break just about anyone, and even when the worst of it hit her, she kept going. Freya is absolutely perfect in so many ways and I refuse to hear otherwise.
Absolutely brilliant, listening to a Bard in FF14 play 'Roses of May' sent me on a nostalgia deep dive and I found you - a very fortunate series of events.
My favourite part in both the original and this, is at 1:39 - 1:51 when it changes slightly to how it's been so far in the track. Hits just right and sounds beautiful.
Thank you for reminding me to stand tall in all walks of life. Freya is the war hero in FF9. Lost happens in life all we can do is remember to stay grateful during adversity and trials.
I expected the usual generic strings everywhere (most people's understanding of """orchestral"""), while you actually understand that "orchestra" is as many different instruments as you want. You got it.
I'm working on a painfully slow mod for the Steam version of FFIX, right now I'm working on making more HD/better looking background textures for the game. But I was wondering if you'd be alright with my utilizing your orchestral covers of the game music.
@@final3119 Given that it was only recently released, I think this guy may very well be the creator of Moguri's Mod. Especially since it does use the music from Pontus... Time to go download it :D
Jesus, man...you're amazing. I'm not saying that I'm in love with you, all I'm saying is that I'm a dude and I would somehow find a way to have your baby.
Did I really wait 3 years to discover this? I always wanted an orchestra version. The only thing i don't like, it's you should let the harpsichord. The piano isn't drama or dark enough flr this song. Love you.
Hi! I am making a Final Fantasy 9 mod, and I would like to use some of your arrangements, like this one of Freya which would fit perfectly for my game. In your information section you explain that these tracks can be used as long as it is not for commercial use, which is my case. So, I assume it is ok to you, right? Do you have a website to download it, apart from the links you provided? Google Play seems to be broken. Thanks!
How did you go about approaching the harpsichord parts to make them more player-friendly? There's like 3 different melodies being played at the same time, but you seem to have arranged it for a single piano.
Oh yeah it sounds great! I was just hoping for some insight into arranging it for something a standard orchestra could play. I've tried to delegate this part to the string section playing pizzicato, but then I'd be without them for the 2nd half of the theme lol.
It is one of the most common critizism I receive - I really need to think about easing off a bit more on the tempo here and there. Thank you for the feedback!
yeah, I think I get what you mean, the song wants to convey a feeling of restlessness and unfulfilled desire. so there are those neverending rushed background steps, it is beautifully tragic man
Yep setting it to .75 speed sounds better yet worse because it gets distorted like thats the speed it needs to be at. But other than that sounds great.
No low organ notes during the major part kind of kills it for me because the song doesn't progress without it and so the arrangement has been changed when it wouldn't need to be if it was done properly.
@@chrisn.d.p3334 and to be fair, Vivi's story arch is the most complex: it deals with thought questions and heavy themes: the meaning of life and the power of choice. Poor Vivi had the toughest time in FF9
@@Zidane_Mina I totally agree. To be honest with you, FF9 was the first game of the serie I came across... And it was my brother stuck in some random boss (The water snake in that dungeon, you know!). I grew up and became such a fanatic of this serie for everything it holds. And when I played FF9 on my own later on, I felt so sad when I realize what happened to him at the end.... Lil Black Mage means a lot to me.

"To be forgotten is worse than death."
To what corners of the world have you travelled?
My dear Fratley...
I climbed the highest mountains only to hear rumours of your victories...
I searched the deepest valleys only to find your footsteps.
But I never found you. And in the end, I heard something...
something unbearable!"
That you have forgotten your every memory and us.
When I was young, I loved Freya because she seemed so cool.

@@Mr.Genesis Agree!
Alright somebody who gets how this is one of the absolute best songs in Final Fantasy IX.
Absolutely! :)
heck yeah, maybe one of the best songs in video game history.
actually now that i think about it this composition is on the same level as Bach/Mozart imo
In Final Fantasy
So good its in the game as 3 different versions
One of the best songs in FF period
Bellissima Da brividi , come quasi tutte le colonne sonore di tutti i final fantasy
This song gives me goosebumps. FF IX is such a master piece. I guess it's about time for my annual replay of this game.
Such a magical melody, Nobuo Uematsu really is the Beethoven of video games.
First notes of the flute, I got chills. I love Freya's theme. The steady build from the wistful flute to the bold, noble brass is magnificent.
I'd love to see what you could do with Burmecia's theme, the kingdom of eternal rain.
That's a royal orchestration, Freya has a more beautiful theme now
Freya is one of the most interesting Characters in the whole game i think and its impressive how well you have redone her theme. She has so much hurt and still she keeps up her hope and energy to keep going. Freya will never be forgotten by us all!
Unfortunately Freya was forgotten by the writers though, she didn't get any lines in the second half of the game.
@@jm2270 Yes she did.
The underlying constant piano really symbolizes her tenacity, almost never stopping. It’s so powerful and fitting.
The drastic change from 2:30 to 3:00 onward... man, hits me right in the feels.
Great work on this!
If you know about tone and note, Freya's Theme is the best masterpiece by nobuo uematsu
I love Freya so much...

Imagine a FF9 remake and this is blasting out .
OMG THX FOR THIS!!!!
My favourite part in both the original and this, is at 1:39 - 1:51 when it changes slightly to how it's been so far in the track. Hits just right and sounds beautiful.
That kind of rearrangement makes me love the game even more for some reason, you did a great job there
Thank you for reminding me to stand tall in all walks of life. Freya is the war hero in FF9. Lost happens in life all we can do is remember to stay grateful during adversity and trials.
You did Freya a justice that she is due. This rendition is perfect. I cried in a taxi listening to this.
Oh my God. This is amazing. Very powerful job. My heart is totally full of love. Thanks for that.
Listening to this makes me want a remake ff9 more than ff7! Not only that but a slight more darker with some of the humor Zidane brings.
I expected the usual generic strings everywhere (most people's understanding of """orchestral"""), while you actually understand that "orchestra" is as many different instruments as you want. You got it.
I can't get over your incredible orchestrations. Please keep it up!
Incredible, man. You've come such a long way since your earlier orchestrations. (Which were also brilliant!)
Song literally makes my heart jump. Such a beautiful song.
Oh my god the piano part throughout this is to die for!
Oh... this made me cry...
beautiful...
that one made me cry. I loved that game, this version of the song is incredible.
Fantastic. I literally have goosebumps
Dude. If you're going to make it, I am 10000% looking forward to the boss battle theme.
Freya: sir Fratley... Where are you...
She was a queen. Never forgotten. 😢
This song says everything but there is no words.
One of the song I'd love to hear live at a Distant Worlds the most. It's haunting and eerie. It tears you up. But it's beautiful
Una canción muy hermosa, me llena de emoción este tema en su totalidad, me insita a seguir adelante pase lo que pase, pierda lo que pierda.
This one, sir, is a masterpiece.
this is glorious, well done.
wow INCREDIBLE JOB. Freya's theme sounds incredible in your rendition!!!
This is so sad and beautiful. You've done amazing with this. Thank you so much for sharing.
Fricking awesome job, dude! Keep this FFIX train rolling!! ;)
Not bad, just a bit too much on the fast side... Would love to hear a slower version, playback speed slightly distorts audio.
Very tragic and yet heroic. Imo the best synergy of sound.
One of my favorites. Wonderfull work
I would like to hear Vivis Theme. Good job :) Amazing music
I truly love this game with all my heart.
TEMASO!
You didn't have to go that fire with it, had to stop what I was doing to really focus in that last part.
Brings me to tears. Every. Fucking. Time.
I'm working on a painfully slow mod for the Steam version of FFIX, right now I'm working on making more HD/better looking background textures for the game. But I was wondering if you'd be alright with my utilizing your orchestral covers of the game music.
@Nicolas Robillart I have a feeling this is the guy that made Moguri, and this was the beautiful start of that project.
@@final3119 Given that it was only recently released, I think this guy may very well be the creator of Moguri's Mod. Especially since it does use the music from Pontus... Time to go download it :D
Beautiful.
Well done, bravo! You do your craft well, you'll create before kings one day with a gift like this.
This theme sounds a lot like
Philip Glass - Glasswork Opening.
Or vice Versa. They sound alike. Someone got inspired by someone
OMG amazing well done mate!
one of my fav sounds in ff ix
Late on a rainy winter night, I study ancient manuscripts by candlelight in the top floor of an old quaint house.
what a beautiful thing
Stop making such great content, it's like you WANT me to subscribe or something....
This is great
Freya is by far one of the most poignant and striking characters of so many games.
The day Square Enix decides to remake FF9, send them this
Amazing work !!!
Gorgeous interpretation.
Why TF does this not have more views?!
You should do Unrequited love or try Zidanes theme! or The festival of the hunt?
this is amazing!
Epic!
Nice work!
blown away
"The bell in your hand and the door bell are ringing!"
Jesus 3:00 onwards went all tingly
Jesus, man...you're amazing. I'm not saying that I'm in love with you, all I'm saying is that I'm a dude and I would somehow find a way to have your baby.
beautiful!

Recorded it twice, then spliced it together. Not super realistic, but thought it sounded ok
Oh yeah it sounds great! I was just hoping for some insight into arranging it for something a standard orchestra could play. I've tried to delegate this part to the string section playing pizzicato, but then I'd be without them for the 2nd half of the theme lol.
Brilliant
Is this a Real orchestra, or is it synthesized? Either way it's beautiful.
latter
Freya thème est ma musique préférée de l'univers final fantasy et cette version est génial
Jättefint
amazing bro
The song is perfect in this remake, just a small problem. You should have slowed it down a little to make it more faithful to the original time.
It is one of the most common critizism I receive - I really need to think about easing off a bit more on the tempo here and there. Thank you for the feedback!
can you do a orchestra theme for the tower if dr zalost full theme from courage cowardly dog??
DAMN
Something about this feels "rushed", like it's a half step too fast and they notes to get to hang enough. Still beautiful.

el mejor juego de mi vida! bueno junto con mario bros
It's good but I think it loses something by replacing the original harpsichord with a piano
ff9 is the my sweet home of childhood
💓
reminds me of hollow knight :D
Oh my God...
This version is fantastic. Hans Zimmer-vibes!

my favorite FF character :`)
Mine has always been Vivi since the first time I laid eyes on the game for this first time when I wa a kid xP

can you made it long?
This is even superior to Terra's Theme from FFVI. Very similar styles but it is improved with this melody.
"Burmecia theme"
