My piano solo/cover of "Grandma", one of the many lovely soundtracks from the beautiful game, NieR. A seriously underated game in my opinion. A plotline full of feels...and the music is also full of feels. I highly recommend you check out the game and soundtrack if you haven't already!
Hope you enjoy this piano cover!
Composition by: Keiichi Okabe
Vocals & Lyrics by: Emi Evans (Emiko Rebecca Evans)

[@ventana6588]

Thanks! I want to play this, but only the piano accompaniment, not the melody... Can you tell me if this version of the accompaniment is the same as the original?

[@HerrSurIix]

@@ventana6588 musescore.com/user/3251436/scores/1106856 Thats the one i used, really close to the original

[@jakehuang2959]

do u know if there's much difference between between your score and the nier official score? (other than the ending chord)

Can you imagine playing music like this back in the days of Chopin and Beethoven? I’m certain they’d have been impressed

[@parini8836]

Surely. This ost gives me goosebumps

[@JackOfBlædes]

@@parini8836 I actually played this at church a long time ago. Piano music is my way of praying. I just looped it for an hour playing and when I realized had a crowd just listening I messed up 😂

[@MrFredd38]

@@JackOfBlædes Approximately how long do you need to play the piano to be able to play this?

[@JackOfBlædes]

@@MrFredd38 that all depends on your effort honestly. You have to get to the point where your brain can separate your hands. The only way that happens is by practice. Everyone is different but it took me a couple years at the very least to play with my hands separated. And even now if I don’t practice enough they try to merge into sync again so I’d say practically for life you have to continually practice. I’ve known some people to play almost immediately with their hands separated so it’s all up to your ability and what you’re willing to do to attain the level of play you desire.

[@MrFredd38]

@@JackOfBlædes thanks for the answer!

[@kooky74]

Your separation of the 2 voicings is perfect!

[@pota7opotato573]

Honestly his voicing is pretty astounding. Especially in his performance of Schumanns Intermezzo no 4, that's some crazy clarity

はじめまして😊 偶然ここへ訪れました。 多々ピアノの演奏動画がある中、とても艶のある音を出しますね😊 また、凄いなと思ったのが、三枝成彰の曲を心で受け止める感受性、それを旋律にする抒情的な表現、三枝成彰の譜面を持ってらっしゃる凄さです😊 次回は、プロヴァンス組曲を演奏して欲しいなと思ってしまいました。

[@Networkengie]

Beautiful dynamics across your notes. Some with the softest touch and others with more volume.I love Nier simply because I enjoy minor keyed songs or scores of this nature. They are just beautiful and are much more expressive than major melodies. Great playing. Just subscribed. Hopefully you use synthesia.

Im learning my arpeggios for executions sake and this seems like a good song to practice that up down motion. At least compared to those piano collection arpeggios thatll make my hands explode.thanks for the sheet

[@Maksobds]

This is so beautiful, I've only started piano and I think this is my ultimate goal, maybe if I repeat a small part every day until I learn it, I should be able to play it after a year. Problem : I don't know how to read music sheet and this a big work to do...

[@bro...5849]

It’s been a month. Have you made any progress?

[@LagunaLeonhart]

I've been playing for 5 months and I'm just starting to learn the first 20 seconds of this lol. Anything beyond that seems really hard. Even the first 20 seconds is something I can't do as quickly as needed so it's not really something I'm good at either. I feel like you need maybe a year to do this justice at all

[@floppa_9530]

I hope you havent gave up after 10 months...

[@Maksobds]

wow I never saw someone replied, here I am one year later still listening to the song ! Unfortunately, I didn't do any progress at all, I didn't gave up at learning it one day, but soon after this I changed my mind and wanted to learn Clair de Lune by Debussy first because I really love that masterpiece and I found it a bit easier. The piano is still in my room but the main problem I'm facing is that I still can't read a music sheet and my computer science classes are taking my whoooooooooooole time :( I'm still happy to see that people cheered for me

[@Maksobds]

So I haven't practiced the piano a lot during the year that passed but I do know how to play the first 45 seconds of Clair de Lune !

[@wr41thx29]

I can play the piano section almost perfectly of this, but adding those vocals ramps it up from a 2 in difficulty to a 20 for me. I kinda want to go back and try again though. Sadly I am super bad at reading music (something I want to work on), so I admittedly do a lot of it by ear, watching hands, and synthesia. :P

[@wr41thx29]

Been working on Shadowlord. I'm surprised how much progress I'm making at my skill level and being entirely self taught. I need to start improving my note reading though. Ended up buying the piano score book for Nier Gestalt / Replicant.
