Touhou 15 - Pure Furies ~ Whereabouts of the Heart (Piano Score)

I knew that I'd eventually do to a Touhou tune! And this one's pretty ballin'. It has a few simple patterns that it repeats over and over but mixes them up well enough to not be completely boring. Sometimes I feel like ZUN's style is drifting away from my taste, so it's nice to hear something new I really enjoy from him. Dat 1:44 section is probably my favorite part.

Harmonically, it's full of the usual 6-7-1 in minor with the 5 thrown in the mix at times. It does use that chromatically descending bass for it's main melody section, which I feel like he hasn't done a whole lot of (Reincarnation and Last Remote comes to mind), so it's welcomed sound.

This was just supposed to be a simplified version of the song for piano, but I've taken a bit of liberty in the accompaniment and harmony of certain places just to keep things interesting. I also tried including as many of the voices from the original as two hands would permit. The main melody is mostly half/quarter notes, so that should help in playing multiple voices at once.

As always, feel free to make whatever changes you feel convenient. And yes, the original loops at around 4:39, so it's pretty long.
