[@Kippie_311]

Caliko YESS!! Just the other day I was hoping you make a sheet for this. Thank you so much!

[@haydn4ever]

THANK YOU!!! I've almost learned it!!

[@vpatkov]

Thank you for publishing the sheet music. You made the best piano arrangement of Decretum I ever heard.

[@darthrevan1225]

Too many covers simply replicate the song, but you did that and then gave it a bit of character that is your own, something I've only seen Theishter and Animenz do from time to time 10/10 would contract to become a magical pianist

[@Asehpe]

Same thing here.

[@CarthagoMike]

wel shit, I read this comment just now and it is 4:43 AM down here.

[@moeboe6293]

I love this song. It radiates both joyousness and deep sadness at the same time, just like the character it's written for. And your delicately beautiful rendition does more than justice to it, I just can't stop listening! Thank you very much for recording it.

[@giovannimazzi3970]

The best version of "Decretum", even than original. I always appreciated mash ups between Decretum and Sis Puella Magica and this is perfect!

[@scoutpark5230]

Thanks!

[@ShiningDrake777]

This portrayal of this song is one of the most beautiful tracks I've ever heard. I'm very grateful to have gotten to hear this.

[@Asehpe]

An incredibly beautiful piece of music, performed with gusto and insight. Your love for Decretum is visible in every movement of your hands. And here I am, feeling tears forming in my eyes so early in the morning. And with a deep need to say "thank you." Thank you.

[@davidpecherskiy7414]

From my experience browsing fan covers on musescore, some fan arr's are over simplified and sound crap, whilst others require 7 hands and 2 brains (very little in between). This however is beautiful, sight read first try (like with mistakes and at like 60% speed) and got to at least get a feel of playing the piece. But I also know, especially after listening to this performance, how far this arrangement can go, especially with dynamics and voicing. Truely a work of art to play and experience for yourself. Thank you

[@kisu928]

Great playing! If that's your house I'm reaally jealous... It looks nice and cozy and to have a grand piano... c: keep up your covers!!

[@TunesByAI2024]

I really really love sayaka’s theme song. It’s gotta be one of my most favorite character theme song ever.

[@paulosuperfodastico]

Amazing, beautiful ost,well done ;)

[@ImperatorGrausam]

No words.. I heard this a couple days ago and I started crying. I love Sayaka..

[@nadaisme7470]

What a play. This is my fav song in the show.

[@aristotle2958]

I swear to god, i cant express how much emotion and conviction this instrument can give. You took this piece and gave it character and made it a part of you, but you kept, and i'd say even amplified the power of every note you played. You have done great justice to this piece. No one can experience the piano's magic until they have touched the note, felt it. I felt every not you pressed. Thank you so much.

[@egoredmc]

I find this small part of "Sis puella magica" inside "Decretum" (2:20) very interesting yet beautiful. But the most beautiful thing in this video is not music itself, but the way it is played. I can see pure mastery in the way your fingers touch piano and the way you move your whole body, I can see your gentle smile behind the hair and emotions you put in this music. That is the best cover I have ever heard. I almost fell in love with you.

[@caladbolg777]

Well Done! I thought you were Kajiura playing her source material for like a solid minute. The fact that you’re a fan and that good is even more impressive!

[@karolvaldivia3032]

You're awesome, really, the way you play is so powerful and at the same time sad and delicate. Great work.

[@ericcheng5496]

Epic one! The transition with part of "Sis puella magica!" perfectly blends in, didn't realize these two match so well until now.

[@lunamoth_]

this is absolutely gorgeous, actually moving me to tears; thank you for doing this cover

[@avolasimone2762]

I just had goosebumps during the entire video. Great arrangement and the way you mashed up both Decretum and Sis Puella was amazing

[@bluehour3887]

I have no words... You played it in really touchful way!

[@miky1774]

this cover is absolutely BEAUTIFUL, WOW.

[@nalex1289]

Wow, I love yuki kaijura and this ost is sublime

[@tomchien4212]

This mix cover with some parts from Sis Puella Magica is beautiful.

[@patriciabristow-johnson5951]

Beautiful arrangement. I love how you added parts from Sis Puella Magica in a way that was extremely graceful and beautiful

[@dominicthordarson3926]

A beautiful rendition of a beautiful ost, adding a bit of your personal flare and all. Keep up the good work; hopefully many more people will discover this hidden gem :).

Every time I hear this song I can't help but hear Scarborough Fair. Madoka was a wonderful anime and this song and performance is equally wonderful. Just wanted to see if anyone hears the uncanny resemblance as well.

Amazing. By the way, what are the other OSTs in your top 3?

[@Demak-Ajeran120]

Aku nggak tau, ostnya Madoka Magica itu apa aja. Tapi yang bikin aku suka dengan animenya, adalah karena sama seperti anime mecha favoritku (planetarian: Hoshi no hito). Yang bikin Aku ingat. Setiap kali aku merasa, Palestina tdk membutuhkanku. Sampai hatiku tdk perlu, harus berjuang bersama mereka. Karena Hamas sudah sangat hebat. Aku pun jadi jatuh sakit. Baik penyebabnya terlihat, atau tidak. Namun ketika ku tanamkan janji kepada Tuhan yg begitu tulus, & kuat ke dlm hatiku yang begitu dalam. Yaitu akan menjadi tameng bagi mereka, meskipun harus kehilangan apapun termasuk hidupku. Rasa sakitku pun, perlahan hilang. Semoga kamu paham. Yg namanya ilmu itu seperti puzzle, maka harus pandai main cocoklogi untuk menyusunnnya. Yg namanya perjuangan pasti disertai pengorbanan.

[@magicax4623]

[@Caliko]

I did! It’s in the pinned comment

[@FeenstaubCupcake]

​@@CalikoOh my lord, i didn't notice. Thank you so much!! 😭

[@cubicbanban]

Something's bugging me. I listened to this video a so much. My favorite moment is at 4:09, where unlike the other times, you don't play the D note of the melody. The effect is incredible, the melody is "hanging" at this moment. But I looked on your score, and this D note is definitely present, at measure 179. Even stranger, by looking closely, I see your right hand playing that D note at 4:09... but I'm definitely not hearing it. What happened? Is this absence accidental? Am I the only one hearing that?

[@Caliko]

In my mind, it's simply a mistake - I played the octave so softly that the hammer didn't hit the string and it didn't make any sound. That's why it's visible, but not audible! I wrote it into the sheet because, again, I simply see it as a mistake. I find it fascinating that you enjoy the effect it gives! I would have never done it on purpose

[@marzukisan6411]

[@fernandonunezsantos8019]

Hey Caliko, awesome piece! I have been thinking of doing a piano cover on Moonlit Night from Death Parade and I really enjoy your playing of it. Do you have any tips on playing that specific song? I have been playing for 5 months now and am excited to try out this song!

[@Caliko]

Thanks! As for tips - depends on what you're struggling with. Moonlit Night requires a lot of sensitivity and that's something that comes with practice, usually only when you've already learned the piece well enough. There is one part with the left hand arpeggios near the end that might be a bit tricky, but it's great training, especially if you haven't been playing for long :) Pay attention to the fingering in the right hand, it makes all the difference! All in all I think it's a good piece to try after 5 months. It's an intermediate piece, practice it slowly and you should be good! If you find any specific parts you're struggling with feel free to ask :)

[@fernandonunezsantos8019]

Thanks a lot! I haven't started yet but I'm hoping to do so after finals haha... College takes up a lot of time. Good luck with your practicing too!
