Kiki's Delivery Service (魔女の宅急便) -『Mom's Broom』/【Piano 】Advance Arrangement
473--Downloads below ----
Greetings,
If you're seeing this then yes, your eyes are not deceiving you, I have finally uploaded after a long period of hiatus due to my hectic schedule this semester working on my capstone project focused on game design/web design and 3D modeling. (Hence why I didn't have the time nor energy to even touch any arrangements)
But amidst one of those days when I was casually slaving away making a 3D model for my game, youtube was playing in the background and it randomly just switched tracks to Ghibli songs. Immediately, Mom's Broom played, along with other Kiki songs, and I immediately felt euphoric as Joe Hisaishi's Bukodan concert tracks began to play in the background.
Not surprisingly, when I got home, I immediately began working on this piece. Though, things started to get a little complicated, because this is a very simple song, and if directly transcribed to the piano, it can be pretty....bland.... additionally, I think i've caught a disease where if there's a simple passage on the sheet music, I would immediately, and most definitely, start making it 100000x harder than it should ever be.
Therefore, it took me 1.5 months of improvisation and experimentation to take this piece where it is now. I had a lot of dull moments this semester, and it is clearly reflected in this arrangement as I just pour it all out into the music. Game having crash bugs, problem finding creative innovation, deadlines, burnt out, etc.
Also more recently, I'm getting even more picky on music I hear, everything just sounds too generic and overly used nowadays. I've also gone even harder on how I improvise on the piano. Normally slapping triads here and there on a grand piano would've sufficed, but not anymore. Every-time I repeat the same hand techniques, I just lose the will to play.
Which is why, I took some time to actually nail down some techniques that my right hand desperaetly lacked till now - right hand muscle memory on scales. At the moment, I can drafty BS some RH runs down, but yea, it's just BS and it sounds fabricated. Nevertheless, all those BS is reflected on this arrangement where most of the runs are now being played by the right hand, a total opposite to my previous arrangement styles where I would harmonize more on the left hand, and narrate the melody on the right.
Because of this, i'm actually really satisfied with this arrangement, due to the fact that it's an entire semester's worth of feelings poured into crafting this sheet.
Though I may not get a ton of views on this, I still enjoyed arranging this, I hope you enjoyed listening to it too.
Again, I apologize if you don't have a 6th finger or an extra arm. Unless you're an alien, i'm afraid this sheet will be marked "impossible".
