Final Fantasy IX - Terra (Harp Solo)

  • Finally! Here's the frequently requested song "Terra" on harp, from Final Fantasy IX, my favorite game on this planet. And possibly on another planet too. I hope I did this song justice, since this is one of the amazing Uematsu tracks that inspired me to learn the harp.
    FYI, I did a poll on Twitter the other day asking people an extremely important question: what exactly are those tall structures in the background on Terra? My headcanon says they're condominiums formerly inhabited by Terrans with exorbitant rent (bet the realtor said "look, you get a clear view of that nice pond! Don't mind that this room is the size of a shoebox and the only pets allowed are the rats that chew through your cereal boxes and leave droppings in the kitchen cabinet!), but trees/mushrooms was the most popular answer. Tell me what you think they are in the comments section!
    Composed by: Nobuo Uematsu
    Arranged & Performed by: Harpsibored
    P.S. - I'm wearing blue, not red (the actual Terran color), to symbolize the eerie blue light of Zidane's memories. Terra is lit by Gaia's blue crystal, which is probably why the entire planet is......well, blue. I like to think that the developers specifically dressed Zidane in blue to foreshadow his insurmountable affiliation with Gaia, ultimately overcoming Garland's attempt to override his soul. Dun dun.

    As always, your arrangements sweep me into fantastic realms I've been to before, but with an entirely new twist.
    An arrangement I would like to suggest, due to how much I would think it could suit harp, is the song "Epitaph" from Final Fantasy VI. It's a bittersweet and slightly melancholic tone, as the name implies, and I think you would surely bring a new height to this fantastic work from Uematsu.
    Also, I am happy to see that you aren't in need of the wrist braces as often. Very happy for your continued good health!

    One of my all time favorite Uematsu pieces. He uses this melody often as a leitmotif in other FF-titles, and it has this feeling of spring, rebirth or awakening. It's magical. Beautifully played and interpreted!

    • @Harpsibored
      @Harpsibored  Год назад +1

      It's interesting, I always felt like the version of this melody in Place to Return to Someday was much more melancholy and wistful. Whereas the Terra version sounds more like a rebirth as you mentioned. Maybe because Zidane is about to finally find out where he's from and experiences somewhat of a "rebirth" when he breaks down and is rescued by his friends. Anyway, thank you for listening ❤️

      Thank you so much! ❤️ Yeah I agree a duet would be a more faithful recreation of the original track. I prefer to hear things reimagined on solo harp whenever possible though. I...........might be a little biased.

    Ive always thought of the Harp as an instrument played by angels in heaven. This is just so beautiful and peaceful 😢. I play both piano and guitar but ive always felt like the piano and the harp fall into that category of blissful sounds on instruments. Very well done 😢

    Absolutely amazing I just recently discovered your stuff and its been nothing but fantastic. Running through FF IX and getting to Terra for the first time I remember I would sit there and just listen to this song play on loop lol. FFIX has my favorite score out of any FF. Maybe one day you could pull off a rendition of Memoria. Keep up the outstanding work!

      Thank you so much!!! I used to do the same thing with Roses of May. I had a save file specifically on the Red Rose, heh. By the way here's a longer version of Terra to chill out to if you want: ruclips.net/video/El_uwun0m9c/видео.html

    Excellent cover, great performance!
    As for those things on Terra, tbh I always thought they were like giant mushroom things or something like the trees of Terra. I dunno. Its been a while since I've played 9 up til Terra, but most of the walkways and buildings look squishy and myconid in nature, to me at least.
    Interesting take on Zidane's blue outfit too! I also didn't even notice that his memories had a blue tint. I just assumed that was flashback haziness.

    I don't believe I could add anything as yet unconsidered by others here, but your rendition of this song moves my older ear to a song I first heard as a teenager. It now strikes me how splitting the familiar, Gaian melody with a couple unusual time-signatures (I think?) and twinkly rhythms is enough to give both Terra, and Gaia an enhanced audial personality.

    • @Harpsibored
      @Harpsibored  4 месяца назад +1

      Thank you so much ❤️ I think the time signatures remain the same, but the rhythm is different. That's why this version sounds eerier than Place to Return to Someday IMO. It just hints at the connection
