Sheet music for this arrangement I made in 2021, combining themes from Final Fantasy VII and Crisis Core.
I recently made a shorter version into a music box:

Pianowrimo 2022 – three weeks in!
Day 23 already!! All the pieces so far are up on youtube; here is today’s:
And the sheet music.
Sostenuto (after Chopin) [Free]
We’re nearly halfway through November and Pianowrimo this year. You can keep up with all the new pieces on my YouTube, and here’s a sneak preview of the sheet music before the album release next month. Today’s is inspired by a unnamed Chopin albumleaf, also in Eb and in 3.
UPDATE: Listen / download the full album on bandcamp here (also on Spotify etc), and get all 30 pieces of sheet music here.
PIANOWRIMO 2022
AND ALSO, of course, it’s November, which mean it is time to write 30 piano pieces in 30 days.
Follow along on my youtube, or below. After this month as usual I’ll put everything together into an album and publish the sheet music. Can you believe this is the 6th year??? Here’s all about previous ones.
Wild Roses (piano)
Sorry no roses in the video… more like a farewell to summer thing. Though the mood is rather more emotional even tragic in the middle there, you can put your own story to it 🙂
There is sheet music for this on the sheet music page. I wanted something pretty easy under the hands. It is kind of Einaudi lite, but just the two pages. I used an old Roland SC88 piano for this sound.

Sleep (piano)
Piano, 2020
Sleep thou in the bosom
Bliss Carman, ‘Sappho: One Hundred Lyrics’
Of the tender comrade,
While the living water
Whispers in the well-run,
And the oleanders
Glimmer in the moonlight.
Long Road Ahead (pianowrimo arrange)
I took November 28th’s piano piece:
…and arranged it out for a few more instruments
The original inspiration was pretty much Takeharu Ishimoto’s Crisis Core sound and we continue with that idea here… (Not exactly similar, and I’m not sure the string quartet was ever combined with the rock band there, but here ’tis.)
I historically haven’t been very into “developing” or “revising” my older pieces, tending to just think of them as done and move on to the next thing, but lately I’ve been doing a few things like like this… I think it’s because of arranging a lot of beloved vgm pieces this year, and that’s made me approach my old stuff (okay, in this instance it’s not at all old, but there’s others) not in terms of developing or revising but doing a different, new arrangement.
Jessie’s Theme (FFVIIR) two ways
Last year I did a bit of an arrangement/restyle of Jessie’s Theme by Masashi Hamauzu from FFVII Remake:
Lately I recorded this in a live piano and oboe version:
