Picked up a beautiful Angel a good time ago, sadly, not for me, but as a birthday present for my good friend Bevan, who also allowed me to do a small photoshoot too. And so, some of the photos and my thoughts about one of Good Smile Company’s latest figures.
Okay, as you know, there are many, wonderful and wacky videos posted on YouTube… It’s not often that I find something, and am immediately inclined to post it onto my blog…
It’s not some crazy super-flashy AMV, nor is it one of the many MAD videos that you often find on NicoNico.
No, it’s an instrumental medley of select tracks from Angel Beats!, as well as a few other Key Works, and it is simply amazing… I love hunting down user-made instrumental versions of Anime OPs and EDs and various other pieces, and I ran into the channel, “violinpiano2“. They produce some beautiful violin and/or piano covers of many anime works, including Angel Beats!, K-ON!, Haruhi, CLANNAD, and many other anime.
This composition comprises of the following songs/pieces:
My Soul,Your Beats! – The OP for Angel Beats
Brave Song – The ED
一番の宝物 (Ichiban no Takaramono)
Crow Song
Alchemy
My Song
一番の宝物 (Angel ver.)
I was surprised to find that they also improvised a few pieces from other Key Works, below:
冬の花火 (from the Kanon Original Soundtrack)
夏影 -summer lights- (A piece from the AIR visual novel)
だんご大家族 (The ED for CLANNAD)
