Beginner's Guide to Voicing and Voiceleading || How Nobuo Uematsu Writes a String Part

Nobuo Uematsu is inarguably one of the greatest video game music composers in history, and yet his work often has a certain simplicity to it. Uematsu has the ability to take an extremely basic melody and chord progression and make them sound fantastic, and a big part of that is his approach to both voice leading and chord voicings in his harmony parts. This expert level approach to simple ideas makes Uematsu the perfect vehicle to explore the basics of these concepts of voicings and voice leading in a way that anyone could learn something from, and so we take a close look at the string pads in Final Fantasy IX's track 'Eye to Eye'. Enjoy!
