Hello once again, NG! This is the thirteenth of 26 submissions (or so) that I'll upload this year for a project entitled Project 26. This project is in collaboration with NG user Chocosoda (check him out!) Each other week in 2011, I'll upload a musical piece for a total of 26.

It's May, and that means it's FFVI month. But this is an FFVII tune! What the hell, Joshy?! I got slammed with a bunch of work and personal matters in late March/all of April, so I'm playing catch-up over the next month. Everything will be late until I've caught up, but with school ending at the end of next week, I have plenty of time to get to work!

This is "Gentle Heart," Aeris/Aerith's theme (as well as the motif of "Flowers Blooming in the Church," the theme of the church in Sector 5) from FFVII as a guitar ensemble. Choco did 99% of this arrangement -- all I did was supervise and suggest soundfonts. Originally, Choco was going to record live guitars (and I could get the engineering credit. xD), but we barely had enough time to get this written, let alone rendered in FL Studio. Nevertheless, this sounds quite good for a soundfont piece.

TIME/TEMPO: 4'35"/69 BPM (4/4 time)
KEY: A# Minor/C# Major
ORIGINAL THEME: "Gentle Heart (Aerith's Theme)" and "Flowers Blooming in the Church" by Nobuo Uematsu
MIDI TRANSCRIPTION: NG user Chocosoda, transcribed for guitar from the original sheet music.

SOUNDFONTS USED (* denotes a new soundfont):
-Guitar Flamenca
-Guitar Acoustic Seagull
-Guitar Acoustic Alhambra?
(I will update these when I can. Choco doesn't remember which 'fonts he ended up using.)

Arranged in Guitar Pro 5, rendered, mixed and mastered in FL Studio 9

Enjoy! Don't forget to leave a review and check out my other works. Subscribe to the RSS feed of my submissions so you don't miss one! :D

EDIT 4/9/2012: For some reason, I missed this track when doing the rename from Project 52 to Project 26. I can't change the name in the new NGAP for some reason?

Thank you for your review! ^_^

Dude, don't make me cry.

You know how beautiful the song is on its own, especially at Aerith's death. Don't make me cry, because that's what it did with the emotions it had. With the guitar sounds, you guys managed to recreate that feeling. Very nicely done... but I still hate crying. xD

paradiddlesjosh responds:

It's OK to cry, Shawn. It's OK. :)

Thanks for your review.
