Gotta appreciate the fact that this final boss theme of a full franchize plays while you're fighting a random old man in a random desert over a cup of paint.
This is the longest cover I've ever made and one of the hardest covers of all due to its length and lack of repetition. Even if there are longer videos on my channel, they are only as long because I looped them or because they're medleys. Also, I actually played this way faster than the original.
Maybe it would've been easier to actually play it in the speed of the original.
Oops.
Amount of notes in this cover: 4538
Next cover at the beginning of August, a pretty epic new Xenoblade 3 theme.
Your hard work get the best Gael Piano Cover here on CZcams and I think even in the world. Good work from a musician, studied in conservatory. This cover is so great. Thank you
First and foremost: AMAZING JOB WITH THIS COVER LIKE ACTUALLY WHAT HOW DO YOUR HANDS MOVE LIKE THAT it sounds so good and accurate to an orchestra with choir it’s scary
And second…
Unless you fight the beeg spooky dragon that’s in some cave who has literally no story lol
Omg I can’t believe someone else has actually played the piece as well. It takes a lot of discipline to arrange Slave Knight Gael! Bravo!! 👏🏽👏🏽
When two legends meet at the end of the world👏👏👏👏👏
Dont you dare go hollow.
Can you do a remake cover and add a bit more “thickness” to it. I feel like your original cover is lacking that chaos and is a bit too bland, maybe this time spice it up a little.
can you play like this ?
Bro summoned the Elder God piano CZcamsr! 😭😭😭😭
Finally someone who nailed the second phase. The way you fly over keys is astonishing
Thanks Yanko!
@@AqareCover Hey. Not only second, but I teared up when third phase kicked in! Loved the cover
As someone who has been playing the piano for about 3 days now, I can confidently say that this isn't humanly possible.
You definitely leveled dex to 99. Excellent cover.
he has 99 dex, hunter’s ring, and carthus milkring
@@humanoidshrek5524 Throw in the Flynn’s Ring and Lloyd’s Sword Ring and you got a pretty good Katana build right there.
@@Zorro7269 imma be honest in all of my 650 hours of playing i have never used a katana build ☠️
nah must have been int because this is some wizardry
@@humanoidshrek5524 In the 2 months since we’ve last talked, I hope, for your sake, that you’ve used a katana build.
This is legitimately the best cover of this piece on youtube. Absolutely stunning.
Thank you, glad you liked it!
Im in hospital since about 10 days and in a lot of pain but this made my day. As always top tier piano content. The chorus of the second phase was insane.
I wish you all the best, hope you get better soon.
@@AqareCover thanks man. Hoping for more music soon too haha
See, that's what happens when u don't listen to your mom and climb trees
Wish you the best man hope you can get back to full recovery
@@Karangoa-gv4cx thanks man
whenever i hear piano covers of game songs (dark souls ones in particular) i allways wonder how people in the classical music era would've reacted to it, one thing's for sure: i would have been going wild in the theater for this lmao
It wouldn’t be very well-received if i were to be honest. The structure of the piece would be deemed too simple for the time.
Shits battle music Lowkey
@@duongnguyenngoc9160I’d say that this song for example has lots more depth than Beethoven’s 5th symphony or waterfall. Definitely sounds a lot more exciting, lots of classical music sounds similar to each other and gets boring to listen to after a while.
@@erckupazo oh no you didn’t just said that. Symphony 5 isn’t just “duh duh duh dun”. The multiple voicing, the development from the initial theme and all the ornaments was just on point. You can say it’s boring and that’s understandable cuz classical music isn’t for everyone. But saying this has more depth than Beethoven? That would just be plain ignorance. This piece although sounded epic, is definitely very shallow when it comes to musical ideas development. So although you like the piece and i also like the piece, please don’t ever say that it has more depth than Beethoven
@@erckupazoIs that really what you think? Listen to Franz Liszt’s “Mazzepa” or his Ballade no 1 and i can almost guarantee you won’t find it boring or also Alkan’s piece scherzo diabolico
This is absolutely sick. The way I wish I could play it. Too many cover artists miss out the subtle notes that piece the song together although they are extremely good aswell. The fact that I can hear the voice, piano, violin and bass parts all in the piano is exactly why this cover is the best. You're amazing man!
Thanks a lot!
Beautiful epic piano cover, Dark Souls series have some great powerful tracks
This is incredibly underrated! Matches the feeling through each phase perfectly.
Holy crap man this is the best arrangement I've seen so far on this ost.
Thanks man!
Man still get chills hearing this. Such a good sound track for such a great fight!
Your touch is magical, you didn't even use the left pedal singole time...
Hey, I want to say that your Gael and Godrick covers are just tremendous. I have been listening to them for an ungodly amount of time since I have first listened to them. If you made a track covering Malenia's theme or the Godskin Apostle's theme, then I could die happy!
Thank you, glad you like them! The Godskin Apostle theme has the highest chance of being covered of all Elden Ring songs, I also thought it might be a good surprise pick for a battle theme medley so there's a high chance that it'll come one day.
Absolutely amazing piece you've made here and easily the best Gael rendition on youtube. This gets the mood and feel just right with all the moving parts and you did such a grand job! Only hoping for a Nameless King cover as I know you'll do that song justice, as no one so far is willing to take the challenge.
Insane! Got a new one to learn after I spend 3 more months trying to finish soul of cinder
What do you play on?
@@Karangoa-gv4cx I have a alesis recital keyboard if that's what you were wondering
you absolutely capture the back and forth in this piece, amazing job
best arrangement of gael's theme, keep it up, your arrangements are beautiful
Thanks! Are there any specific Dark Souls songs you would like to hear ony this channel in the future?
@@AqareCover you think you could arrange midir's?
Holy crap, what a monster of an arrangement!!! How can you even play this?! So many different techniques, this just sounds so epic!!!
-Also, did I just find a hidden Domtendo easter egg in the tags?-
holy shit those arpeggios and jumps! you are seriously an incredible pianist
I haven't felt the feeling of "I gotta learn this for piano" so strong in my life. I gotta freakin learn this! Amazing!
how’s your progress? i wanna try this one day when im ready, too.
Brilliant!! The way you move your fingers across the piano is unreal, great work!
Damn this arrangement really does the second phase justice, and those jumps look insane. Amazing arrangement, this really captures the original piece well, the melodies are really well done, excellent job
Thank you Nafi!
It captures well the “thickness” of the orchestra, a relentless influx of sound, clashing into each other. So chaotic yet so epic
Beautiful cover. Great work!
This was amazing, i hope you keep doing great work like this
It's beautiful. Superb work! ✨
Thanks!
Okay, the best cover of gaels theme no doubt. The start of phase 2 gave me goosebumps as well as quite a few other sections, start of phase 3 too. it sounds just like the original! Crazy good stuff man
Incredible work. Thank you
Incredible work here, I'm speachless
superb as always
Very well played my friend, you are really good!!
Beautiful excellent work, I cannot thank you enough for making this it is actually beautiful. I one day hope to be able to play this as well. You made my morning this is glorious
wholey man, mad respect for that super cool piece. Defo deserves like 500k likes. Sounds awesome and thanks so much for the effort you made to play this piece!
Thank you!^^
des is ja fast wie in
DAAAK SOOULS
ok
Definitely the best arrangement of this theme I saw, excellent job !
Means a lot, thank you Anazel!
Amazing cover
Thank you, man. It was awesome.
A channel with perfect covers of amazing video game tracks and with free sheet music included? How are you not famous yet?
Yo you brought me back to the first time I got into that fight. Love it!
This is incredible.
Excellent work as always! My absolute favorite fight and theme in Soulsborne! I’d love to see your take on more music from these games, with some personal favorites being: Darkeater Midir, Godfrey - First Elden Lord, and Sir Alonne! Thank you for your your hard work and always making my day with your covers!
Thanks for letting me know! Souls content is one of my favorite ones to make so there's a high chance one of your favorites will be covered one day.
Definitely my favorite series for sound tracks. Some of my favorites being gehrman, lady Maria, geal, and ludwig.
dammm i was waiting so long for a good piano version of this one really thanks
Great performance of a great arrangement, you really captured the intensity and drama of the original.
Unbelievable, this is such a good cover
This is so good keep up the hood work❤
Thank you!
Fantastic!
The accuracy, expressiveness, Articulation...
I rarely give a video a like, but this one is getting it.
Goosebumps plus weeping 😭❤️❤️❤️
stop questioning me for reading the tags!!!
also this was amazing, thank you!
-Ted
Beautiful.
Yup one of the best covers so far.
Master piece
knockin these outta the park
And here i thought the boss fight was the hard part, amazing job!
BRAVO.
bravo 👏
Man, I think you were built to cover Soulsborne music. This is so good. I’m speechless…
Very Epic ❤️❤️❤️❤️
YOU ARE MY SAVIOR PLEASE CONTINUE THIS
Вау, браво. Для меня как начинающего осваивать пианино, это просто недосягаемый уровень. Спасибо, маэстро, это было невообразимо приятно не только слушать но и наблюдать❤
godlike
This is good
Uprisinggrand brought me here. Glad to find another person covering these masterpieces.
素晴らしい演奏です
ありがとうございます！
Very impressive young grasshoppa
The TRUE final boss of DS3, and the greatest boss fight of all time, period, zero exceptions.
I'm tempted to start learning Piano just so I can eventually play this.
Challenge accepted, hold my lack of skill.
👑
This is so beautifully played. Did you make a midi recording of it??? If so, is there any way you could post it??? It would really help me to learn.
Thanks in advance. I apologize if others have already asked in the comments below. I did not read all of them..
Sincerely, Michael
Hi Michael! You can get all of my MIDI files at once on Patreon for 2$: www.patreon.com/user?u=13326524
Hope that helps!
Damn... I wish I knew to play this song
Gael must be proud
Did you cut all the small sections together tp not play it one go? Not meaning it I a bad way, am just curious. it is still hella impressive :D
Thanks! Yes, I'm using cuts, also because every section has a different tempo. I'm playing with a metronome, and between the sections I need to change the metronome tempo so that the upper part of the video is synchronized with the lower part^^
@@AqareCover Oh, that sounds like a lot of effort. Respect for doing all the cuts just for a perfect tempo
How can you play this music with just one piano? Amazing!
This sheet music has some errors regarding flats and sharps is there another version or is it the start that has errors?
Where do you see any errors?
Holy shit 1:56 that accuracy
The last movement on piano really sounds like a Chopin piece
amazing how if you analyze it, most dark souls 3 songs stay on the root chord for a while until they need more harmonization, it has made me realize sometiems you dont have to be complex to sound great
That's actually a technique called organ point that is being used to make something sound serious. You're right, the bass doesn't need to be complex at all for something to sound good, but the bass staying the same is actually not a way of making it simple but rather a deliberate technique to give it the right character. If you analyze the harmonies of Dark Souls themes, they are actually pretty much the most complex in all of gaming.
@@AqareCoverpedal point?
my reaction to both the fight and this cover
Phase 1: uhm, okay, I can probably hadle this in a couple of weeks
Phase 2: ...no way
Phase 3: STEVE HARVEY STARE 👁👄👁
Is this the blood?
Give it to me……Your Dark Soul!
This man did his absolute best to make up for the unfortunate handicap of not being born with three or four fully functioning arms and hands. Seriously, though, can't even imagine how hard this was, especially doing it all in one take. The complexity of the original piece does not lend it well to being transposed to a single person at a piano, though this orchestration did a phenomenal job of preserving the important parts of the song while also allowing time for shit like hand movements and accounting for the fact that no one person can physically play three or four lines at the same time. You see similar issues with people trying to play 8bit songs, like from the Pokemon games. It's just not possible to play a song requiring three hands with only two.
Thank you, glad you liked it! I just would like to note though that there were a few takes in this.
1:19
What are the difficulties for each part of the song?
The first one doesn't have many difficulties, the second one has very quick uncomfortable leaps that on top of that change with every iteration of the main part, the biggest difficulty in the third part is playing notes quickly with the fourth and fifth finger while jumping to another chord position the entire time
@@AqareCover yeah I thought phase 3 would be the hardest due to needing to play chords while playing so fast. I’m currently only learning phase 1 now, so if u dm could u give a number out of 10 for it? Thanks!
@@erckupazo Thanks for learning it! I'd rate the first phase 4/10 in comparison to previous covers, and both phase 2 and 3 10/10.
@@AqareCover thanks, I’m having lots of fun learning it. And thank you for making such an awesome cover, it’s absolutely perfect.
This is harder than the boss its self
