Final Fantasy VII Rebirth contains 8 Piano Songs. Finding the first 6 Piano Song Sheet Music Locations and getting at least A-Rank to receive Remuneration is needed for the Piano Virtuoso trophy. The last two songs are not needed. A-Rank is the second highest rank. S-Rank, which is the highest rank, is not required for any trophies.
Each Piano Song is found on a Piano in a town or village. Sit down at the Piano and press Touchpad to select any song you collected. Next to the Pianos you will find a man called Dorian. After you achieved A-Rank, talk to him to receive a reward. This is what counts as “remuneration”. After getting A-Rank on all 6 songs talk to him again, this triggers a cutscene and Dorian gives you the 7th sheet music, after which the trophy unlocks. Completing the 7th sheet music given by Dorian is not needed for the trophy. The 8th sheet music from completing Johnny’s Treasure Trove is also not needed.
This is rhythm minigame where you must press the left and right stick to play notes on the piano. The notes will show as yellow rings, you must tilt the stick at the last moment in the correct direction for it to count as “Great”. If you tilt the stick too early it will count as “Good” or “Bad” which will give a lower score. A-Rank requires getting roughly 90% “Great”. Missing a few notes is fine. There is a big learning curve initially to practice the timing. For S-Rank you’d need 100% “Great” without any Good/Bad/Misses, but luckily this isn’t needed for any trophies.
None of the Piano Songs are missable. After the story you unlock Chapter Select to go back everywhere. All of these collectibles are still available at the start of Chapter 13 via Chapter Select.
