Starting today I will upload weekly videos again! Since the arrival of my grand piano has been delayed indefinitely, I will record new arrangements on my Stage Piano instead for the meanwhile. It also features a lightning system, which will change colors and intensity, depending on the mood of the song. I hope you like this current setup!
With that said, let’s move on to Homura「炎」, the Theme Song of the Demon Slayer Movie Mugen Train!『無限列車』. At first I couldn’t believe that Yuki Kajiura was actually the composer of this song, because it sounds very different compared to her usual musical style (lol). But the chorus of Homura is - in my opinion - the single most catchy melody I have heard for a long time. Once you hear it, you can never stop humming this melody.
Arranging a slow-paced song on the piano is always a big challenge for me because there is always a thin line between “boring sound” and "excessive arranging”. I usually try out multiple arrangement versions on the piano until I find the “perfect version” and the more I practice, the more techniques are being added to the arrangement.
However, at one point I realized that I included too many ornaments and they are “distracting” Homura from its main melody. I cut out many unnecessary notes and tried to focus more on dynamic difference between each part. (Still, I wish I could use some kind of vibrato on piano keys to imitate LiSA’s fantastic vocal performance but unfortunately, the piano is not made for that.)
I have also watched the Demon Slayer movie while it was airing in Japan and the animation studio Ufotable has outdone themselves again with the fantastic animation. No words about the story though, because the movie hasn’t aired in many countries yet and I don't want to spoil it. I am pretty sure the reason why this movie broke all movie records in Japan is because many people are watching it several times over and over again- because the animation is just so damn satisfying to watch (lol)
Alright, that’s it for today’s upload! I hope you enjoyed this weeks piano arrangement with the special lightning. Next week I am finally uploading something seasonal for a change of pace. See you then!
