Going back to my roots an animu/anime-aesthetic inspired arrangement. Maybe you've heard of a small indie game called Genshin.
This rendition of the Lantern Rite theme stuck with me as it was the first to weave in a bunch of the other Liyue themes into a beautiful flowing and well-structured medley. The Qingce theme especially encapsulates that bittersweet nostalgic feeling you get when looking back fondly on good ol' times (like what I'm doing right now).
Since this arrangement came after the group/instruments were established, I tried to arrange things as idiomatically as possible for everyone. Lots of revisions made, but it's a pretty fun process. I also used an A clarinet because I thought the darker and warmer tone would work well (jk, I just didn't want to play in F# major on my Bb).
Thanks again to Tai, Robert, Joanne and Allen for humoring me with this little project :)

So apparently its Mikus birthday today...in which case I think this iconic Vocaloid song makes for a fine present! HBD Miku :3
With school fast approaching, this videos gonna be the last clarinet cover for a long while. And so I made sure to make it as awesome as possible this time done with a better microphone, better clarinet, headphone-recording for a purer sound, harmonies, a shred-clarinet solo if there ever was one, and of course, a guitar ^ ^
Lok Yin (Lokyin24) is once again the guitarist, and he does a fantastic job yet again! Check out his channel here http://www.youtube.com/user/Lokyin24 and go to his version of this video for tabs. Video editing also goes to him =)

Well, thats all for now! Im probably gonna be signing out for a while (Lokyin too), so we both very much hope you enjoy this last one! :D")

Be sure to raise the volume! :)
Whew, first day of a 4-month summer for me! :D Hopefully thatll mean more frequent videos...
After a good 3 or 4 months of working on this brilliant arrangement, I can FINALLY play it! ^_^ It really is a lovely, colorful, dramatic even borderline cheesy piece (although given that its from Clannad, my cheese tolerance is pretty high XD). Some parts of this were ridiculously challenging for me though (especially the eargasmic Dango Daikazoku part towards the end), and to be honest, I still have no idea how I managed to learn it :s
Took me probably 10 or so takes to nail this. Its not free of mistakes, but this one was definitely the most musically satisfying.
In any case, Ill keep it brief and let mah playing do the rest of the talking :P Hope you enjoy~~!!
Sheet music can be found at Josh Agarrados site (under Clannad).")

In hindsight, my first From Y to Y cover sounds like crap and does the awesome song no justice whatsoever. And so, here I am working on a second one. Unfortunately finals are starting this week and I have no time at all to record, so my actual covers gonna have to wait another 2 weeks. So in the meantime, heres a clarinet cover thats not actually a clarinet cover :D
Sheets are available though :)
