Découvrez la vidéo Silhouette - Naruto Shippuden OP16 [Piano] de Animenz Piano Sheets sur Le Fil YouTube de Piano Partage.

Silhouette is by far one of my favorite opening songs of the 20 OP songs from Naruto Shippuuden and despite being more than half a decade old, the catchiness of the chorus in Silhouette just never wears off. And before I noticed it I couldn't stop listening to this piece over and over again.

Luckily, the original piece by KANA-BOON is played in D-major and my improvisation level is at the highest in this particular key. I used to improvise contrapuntal pieces during my conservatory years and I always used D-major because it just "feels right". Also, many of my favorite classical music pieces are also written in D-major (the most famous example would be the Canon in D-major by Pachelbel).

I think this arrangement is one of the most challenging arrangements I have uploaded in 2020 because of the polyphonic structure (two or more simultaneous lines of independent melody) I have been using for this piece. Especially the secondary melody in the chorus in 01:05 was a real challenge to play, because you have to play two independent voices with only one hand. The second chorus in 02:02 also features a secondary melody, but this time it's being played by the left hand only.

Overall, I had a lot of fun arranging Silhouette because it reminded me of the Bach pieces I have practiced in the past and I was always fascinated by Bach's polyphonic structure and his brilliant counter melodies. I also started to listen to more classical music as well recently while arranging Silhouette for the piano. And once again I am reminded, why classical music will forever remain timeless because I always get inspired by it, no matter how often I listen to it.

Well then, thank you for listening my piano arrangement! It's time for me to continue watching my Anime backlog and I am curious which song I am going to work on next.

Until next week then!
