"Away, Ascended": An FFXVI Piano Medley #ffxvi #ff16
While listening to and transcribing bits of the FFXVI OST in preparation for my video essay on the game's musical storytelling, I noticed that Dion's theme ("Ascension") and Joshua's theme ("Away") both begin in G minor. The next thing I knew, I was arranging an entire piano medley out of their themes. And so here it is: Away, Ascended! This is the first piece I have arranged in several years, and I had an absolute blast with it! Soken really composed such a masterful soundtrack for FFXVI, and I am looking forward to posting my analysis soon too.
I would also like to thank everyone in the PhoenixFlare discord server for encouraging me with this little project! You can also read my reflections on the structure this piece on the PhoenixFlare fansite, here: https://phoenixflare.eu/away%2C-ascended
*Do note that my reflection does contain heavy spoilers for FFXVI.
Regardless, I hope you enjoy the music! I will be back on my grind with the video essay now. See you soon... I hope.
