again - Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood OP1 [Piano]

Sheet music → https://mymusic.st/animenzzz/41461

The first part of my 6-video-special series has finally been uploaded! And I'll start with a piano cover of the first opening of Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood: "Again" by YUI!

This is one of my favorite opening songs of FMA Brotherhood, next to "Period" by Chemistry and I think I have never skipped the OP animation even once, when I was watching FMA Brotherhood back then - because it was just so good.

A few words about the sheet: This arrangement follows very closely to the original song by YUI, and I only added minimal amount of original material in the sheet. The beginning of the piece is actually inspired by the TV-size version of the OP song - it starts with a "soft" version of the chorus instead of the guitar riffs like the full song version.

I paid a lot of attention to the rhythm this time. The left hand's accentuation is almost 90% the same as the drumbeats in the original song. The biggest technical difficulty for this sheet are the fast left hand "repetition notes" 0:58 and the fast right hand jumping 2:09. It took me a while until I could play this properly.

Last but not least, I included a lyrical jazz solo for the final chorus 3:38, before the rest of the instruments finally kicks in, and carries the piece until the end.

Well then, that's it for today! My next project is going to be Resonance, the first OP song of Soul Eater. Until next time!
