The iconic "Merry-Go-Round of Life", from Howl's Moving Castle! These 5 min pieces truly rips up both of my time and sanity, but it's pleasing to release the results. And this time it was easier, because this arrangement is based on the official synthesia for this piece on Joe Hisaishi's channel: https://youtu.be/4iWT_j9uY0k
Despite the description claiming it's a "piano solo" version, it's actually the orchestral version, with the main instrument lines visualized in the synthesia. Consequently, I wanted to create my own piano based on the notes in the video, it's about 99% the same except for a few corrections/edits:
"Fixes":
-Added a few arpeggios in the right hand where it was audible in the track but missing from the synthesia.
-Fixed wrong octave in right hand in the 130 section.
-Added two bassnotes missing in 152.
-Added some leading notes in rh where it was audibly missing.
Creative edits:
-Added a few D's under 3 lone A notes in the melody.
-Took away one note from chords in 10 and 11 because it sounded too dissonant.
-Doubled melody and bass in climax.
It was a lot of work, but I hope you will like this piano version! It's an amazing movie and score as per usual with Miyazaki and Hisaishi, so I knew I wanted to do something with it at one point.
