It's time for another round of nostalgia Anime piano series! And this week's upload is none other than the first opening of Inuyasha: 「Change the world」! It's definitely one of my favorite OP/ED songs from Inuyasha because the melody of the chorus is absolutely timeless and it has an irresistible positive energy.
Since Inuyasha has played a great role in my childhood, I wanted to make this week's upload somehow special. I was imagining "how would a piano version of 「Change the world」 would sound, if it's being used as a BGM in the final episode of Inuyasha?" And thus, the idea for a "ballad piano version" of 「Change the world」 was born.
Ideally, this piano arrangement shouldn't sound like a piano cover anymore, but more like a standalone piano piece, as a part of the original Inuyasha soundtrack. Perhaps one day, I can actually record piano pieces for the official soundtrack of an Anime series in the future.
I took some liberties with some chord progressions in 00:47 and 2:20 between the verse and chorus, to make the key change from A major [chorus] to F major [verse] as natural as possible. The bridge part in 3:35 is also a re-imagination of the original bridge part in 「Change the world」 and it is deliberately arranged to sound like an improvisation. The goal is to further develop the music after the second chorus until it reaches the turning point in 03:51.
What follows after the long pause in 03:59 should be played with the most delicate sound as possible, because in this moment, I was silently saying goodbye to all the characters from Inuyasha. Not gonna lie, I felt quite emotional when I was playing this part during recording. Sometimes, the power of nostalgia can be very powerful.
Last but not least, this piece ends with the chorus melody [G-F#-F#] in 05:04. I still don't want the music (or story) to end, so I played the chorus melody one last time to create an "open ending" of the music. Perhaps, we will see a continuation of this story in the future.
Well then, that's it for this weeks upload. I hope you enjoyed this special ballad-type piano arrangement and thank you for reading the video description. For next week, I will continue with the nostalgia Anime series and I am going to arrange another from my childhood. See you next week then!
