『スタジオジブリ』名曲メドレー-久石譲

Joe Hisaishi is one of my favorite composers and his contribution to the world of Anime Music is nothing short but legendary. I have listened to almost every soundtrack from all the Ghibli movies and I decided to play 6 of my favorite Ghibli songs in one continuous piano movement. The main goal of this medley is to create a otherworldly atmosphere and make each transition between the songs as smooth as possible.

Compared to my usual arrangements, I tried to focus more on the melody this time and left out exaggerated embellishments, only adding an additional side melody if it complements the overall musical texture very well. I am still experimenting how to play multiple melody voices on the piano without sounding too cluttered.

Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed the piano music.
