Recorded on a real SC-88Pro. ® ZUN / 上海アリス幻樂団
The MIDI music in Perfect Cherry Blossom, Imperishable Night and Phantasmagoria of Flower View were all made for the SC-88Pro, but unlike Embodiment of Scarlet Devil (in EoSD the 88Pro MIDIs are the originals) they were only included as a quick bonus. In other words they wont sound as good as they could. In some cases, the MIDI versions may be based on earlier versions of the WAV tracks.

ZUN's comment:

The Japanese Cinderella's hidden cage is such that no matter how hard you try, you
cannot force the princess out. That's the fault of the Kagome.
However, one word from a celestial opens all the doorways.

This is the Stage 5 theme.
Asian, Western, old, new-- This song isn't one or the other. The boss seems that way, too, but the stage itself is based in Japanese horror.
Each song has a theme, and this one's is based on the song "Kagome, Kagome". It's not an arrangement, just composed with a similar theme.
I didn't want to get caged in on a theme for this one.

　　日本のシンデレラを隠す檻は、無理に連れ出そうとしても、絶対に姫
　　は出て来ない。それは篭目の所為である。
　　しかし、天人の一言で全ての扉が開かれてしまう。

５面のテーマです。
東洋風なのか西洋風なのか、古いのか新しいのかはっきりしない曲です。ボスもそんな感じ。でもステージ背景は和風ホラー風。
いつも曲にはテーマがありますが、この曲のテーマはかごめかごめ、つまり曲です。アレンジではなく曲のテーマを曲にする。
表現のテーマは檻に囚われてはいけないと思う。
魔理沙のテーマ曲は５曲あるんですけどこれが一番それっぽいかな。
