I know I'm late, but then could you tell him to do so?
We don't really operate here without the arranger.

[Sebastian]

Oh, for sure^
His visits are sporadic. I'm sure he'll stop by sometime soon.

[jegilmer]

Hey guys, I'll update the links ASAP! I just got done with my first semester in grad school and I was busy all semester!

[jegilmer]

Should be updated now! Let me know if it did not work.

Whoa, sweet. Grad school 

[jegilmer]

Haha yeah it's intense!

[jegilmer]

Hey guys, I know it's been a while, but are there any things that we can do to improve this arrangement?
Thanks!

Alright! This sheet's pretty good. I corrected a couple wrong notes, but nothing major fortunately. [MUS]

Two comments (see hidden notes on mus):
- m. 3-4 LH doesn't seem very fitting. I don't really hear that part in the original, and to me it feels a bit odd just having descending in the LH. Haven't thought about it much, but tell me what you think.
- m. 8 beat 3.5 (LH) doesn't sound quite right to me.

This part is actually in the original. It's the low strings section.

Also, M. 8 would work better if you put in the bass notes as octaves instead of leaving one triad out.

[Latios212]

Alrighty then. Files are updated.

[Maelstrom]

I don't like m3-4 at all. It's supposed to be the biggest, most full part of the song, but it feels so empty as it is. I can't say what needs to be fixed, but it's just... thoroughly meh right now. Maybe octaves in the RH? 5ths in the LH? Something needs to change there.

[Sebastian]

Maybe octaves in the RH?

We could do that.^ It fills the right hand in quite nicely, isn't too hard to play (only 100 BPM), and is in the original. What do you think Lat?

[jegilmer]

Sounds great so far! Octaves in the right hand seems difficult to me, but then again I suck at playing piano so I don't know
That would be staying more true to the soundtrack, but 5ths in the left hand wouldn't hurt I don't think.

[Maelstrom]

Then..... do it?

[jegilmer]

.mus file has been updated with 5ths in the left hand. If you guys think octaves would be feasible then I can do that, too.
