My feeble attempt at View of Silence for piano solo. https://www.dropbox.com/s/jzfx07tcggvu959/viewofsilence_sept2016.m4a?dl=0
It's not without mistakes, especially the latter half, which is ridiculously difficult in the right hand, but I'm hoping I can maybe perfect it over the course of this figure skating season.
Oh, and I need to get me an automatic sheet music page-turning device, lol.
transcription by pseudo. I'm not aware of any official piano-solo version, it's not in any of the eight Hisaishi piano albums I own. I used to "know" pseudo on-line (been a video game music and anime music fan for about twenty years, and in those circles he was/is famous for piano transcriptions of that kind of music), so it's kind of a thrill for me to finally have reached a level of piano playing where I can actually sort of play this, and combine it with my other hobby, figure skating watching.
And yes, I'm also working on Asian Dream Song (the complete version).
edit: oh, what the heck. Posting this here, too. Don't expect a concert performance, lol! But for those who like that sort of thing:

This is only the third time I played it (well, this version, I used to have a much easier transcription, but I threw it away when I got the official piano sheet music album), and there's some parts in there which I'm not gonna be able to play just like that without a fair bit of decent practice, but I'm sharing it here, anyway, not in the least so that I'll have a point of reference for myself, so that I can look back at September 2016 when Yuzuru Hanyu wins that Gold medal in Helsinki, and I'll be able to notice that I have actual progress with both piano pieces by then.
:thumbsup:

Juniors will surely go first, but we should be able to watch his practice by then (if SC is nice to us all and streams the whole thing on DM again). Does anyone know when the senior men are scheduled to compete?
. Hope the livestream won't crash due to overloading as this is the first time we will see the full programs, music cut and costumes :hap93:
, and then surprise us during the 6min warm-up
