artguy360 1,843 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 The Resistance March works really well on piano and the Rey guitar cover sounds a bit like a Western theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it's true that it can sound like a Western theme, I think the guitarrist did an interesting job taking advantage of different colors of the guitar, so the arrangement is very clear and idiomatic, but at the same time respectful to the original orchestration.

artguy360 1,843 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 This is a really fun cover of Rey's theme with the Force theme mixed in. It takes a while to get going but it cool once it does. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey's Theme is stunning on violin, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artguy360 1,843 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 This solo, acoustic guitar cover of Rey's Theme may be the best yet. It succeeds not only as a cover but a genuinely interesting guitar piece. This dude really gets the right feel for the darker moments of her theme and adds subtly instead of trying to replicate the big brass sounds.

Giftheck 916 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 When I get my EWQLSO packages (soon hopefully) I can use them to create some orchestral-style covers. All these here are very good, so great job Cerebral Cortex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artguy360 1,843 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 A really good piano cover of Jedi Steps with a sweet binary sunset rendition from the end of the movie. The same youtuber does a pretty good Rey's Theme piano cover that doesn't sound as stilted as a lot of other Rey's Theme covers on youtube. Now that the movie and music have been out for a bit the fan community is really warming up with cool covers all over youtube. I love it when fans take JW's music and do interesting things.

artguy360 1,843 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 This thread needs to live! There are so many TFA music covers being made now. This piano cover of Rey's Theme is a bit of an oddity. It's played at a really fast tempo, faster than the actual piece, and I think it kind of ruins it a bit. But it's still an interesting listen. And this weird Jedi Steps end scene recreation + march of the resistance cover is kind of amazing! Seriously everyone should watch this video.

The arrangement and playing is far too much of a literal rendition of the original version and thus extremely unsuitable for a string quartet.
