I really like the jazz harmonies used in this piece, reminds me a lot of 'Over The Rainbow'. Excellent work.

I think I caught bits and pieces of "To Zanarkand" in there. But it might just be the source material as I'm not familiar with it (never played Chrono Trigger, blasphemy I know.) It's a very peaceful piano solo. Very beautiful mix that I'd rank up there with kLuTz's "A World of Piano" mix.

レミェス? ...you mean レミックス?

Anyway... I really like piano solos, so I always like seeing more of them on here. This one's good, very relaxing (I'll be adding it to one of my playlists, I'm sure) and I think the comparisons with klutz's stuff is quite deserved.

I'd definitely like to hear more stuff from zohar in the future. Maybe some more ambitious piano solos as well. KF

Excellent piano peice. I'm very seldom moved or even interested in piano re-arrangements but this is a very pleasant exception. It doesn't hurt that I love the wind theme, but the style you remixed it in is refreshing and captivating.

This sounds extremely professional. I suppose the amazing samples helped in that respect, but the arrangement is so solid on its own that I can't say that the samples are a crutch.

Keep up the great work.

Amazing work here, I heard this first in the WIP forums, and it was already very good, except it had some issues with the reverb and muddiness, but it's great to hear that those have been replaced with almost professional-quality production.

Well...no offense to kLuTz or his work, but I think comparing zohar to the stuff that Greg did 5 years ago downplays the genius of this arrangement.

Anyway, I too am ecstatic to see more Japanese arrangers getting on the site. Congratulations to zohar, and I definitely hope you submit your other material soon (your Chrono Cross arrangement is practically divine).

Simply beautiful. :)
For some reason it reminds me a little of Bill Evans a little.

Actually, it's リミックス.
