My performance of To Zanarkand, by Nobuo Uematsu
on: December 23, 2010, 01:42:45 PM
I've been playing for three months, so please be gentle, :P. It's the second version I did, the first version is also on youtube, check it out if you want. I made this second version following lots of advice people gave me on my first. Tell me what you think.

to me.......not enough subtil; too harsh on certain notes, too "dry", be more dreamy, softer......
But it's a great piece of music....Do you know "wind crest"? (a final fantasy piece too)?

Hi Manu,
Only three months? Very impressive! It shows good control and agility in your playing. A lot better than I did after three months. Bravo.....

Musically, Jimbo

P.S. I also agree, nice house.
