It's been a long time since I played piano. I guess I feel like I don't have a lot of time lately. Less motivation to learn a new piece. I'd like to get back into it more because playing piano sparks something in me. The satisfaction of nailing a tricky package or getting to express my love for a certain song through performing it. I miss writing on piano too. This is a piece I wrote a few years ago and never really used for anything. I wrote it back in my video game music era and I wouldn't stop listening to Nobuo Uematsu's Final Fantasy soundtracks. He would create these gorgeous sort of music box ballads that sounded like a sort of bittersweet, tender nostalgia. Like sweetly mourning a childhood you never got to have. Songs like "Interrupted By Fireworks" or "Tifa's Theme" or "Fisherman's Horizon" or "A Song From Her Memory." I was dismayed to find I really couldn't find any other songs like these, except maybe in other 90s JRPGs. It's such a specific and beautiful feel that I wanted to hear more of it. Hence this piece. Let me know what are some types of songs you wish there was more of in the world?
