Ah, gotta love the combo piano-synth strings patch setting :)
Those arrangements aren't actually that difficult, nowhere near close to the stuff I wrote for my album. I could probably learn his arrangements with fairly little effort.

Pretty much what I was thinking. Though I am not really fond of patched synth-instruments. Having both cue at the same time for every key press just feels so...eighties. For anyone else thinking of attempting this, the only thing I'd suggest is to keep in mind that a linear conversion to piano ends up sounding somewhat mechanical and soulless. Anyone attempting to bring these themes to any solo instrument needs to accomodate the missing companion chords and build them into the piece. Without them, you get a tangled mess of sound that doesn't have as much coherence as it really needs. The youtuber linked above tries, but just so barely misses as there isn't enough substance really bring things together.
