BardicKnowledge Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I rarely post reviews -- something that I should definitely do more often -- but holy smokes, this is the best channeling of Debussy I have heard in a very long time, without limiting that qualification to fan-made material. I also love that it tackles what is a very short source, demonstrating that there is a mountain of potential for almost anything given enough talent.... ...and "enough" doesn't even begin to describe what's going on here. The ending is particularly well-executed, giving us the source melody clearly in a way that doesn't feel contrived in the slightest. I'm going to be gushing about this for some time to come. docnano, djpretzel and TheChargingRhino 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemnlime Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Wow, this is so classy. An interesting interpretation of a short song. Nice! docnano 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansdown Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 In addition to Debussy, I also feel a bit of Bizet's slower pieces. Just a fantastic, fantastic OoT piece. djpretzel, docnano and TheChargingRhino 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docnano Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I'd also like to acknowledge the role of critical feedback in the writing of this arrangement. I think it was Theophany that encouraged me to do a substantive rewrite of an earlier version (into which I had already poured several hours of work). But the previous version was confused, with too many ideas vying for the listener's attention. In restarting from scratch after playing around with the themes a bit, I had a much clearer vision for the arrangement, and what emerged was by far a superior product. In other words, don't succumb to the sunk-cost fallacy -- sometimes it's best to start over from a clean slate.

Mordi Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Not familiar with classical music, but this was really good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Man, this has some amazing dynamics! It's definitely giving a peaceful, natural feel. If VGM is still coming off as blips and bloops, well... show the people this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MordantBlackmorrow Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I enjoy classical pieces and I don't comment as much as I should. I've also been gone for quite awhile but I always come back here to find some interestingly done reworks and pieces. I like how this piece opens up in the beginning. Slow and smooth and transitioning into the other instruments. I'd have to say this is probably one of my most favorite Zelda pieces I have heard on this page so far. Congratulations on a superbly amazing job. I hope to hear more amazing pieces like this. Not to say the other music on here isn't all great. I love all the work everyone does here.
