The Deku Trombonist's Arrangements

[KefkaticFanatic]

You know what I think about Native Faith, so yeah.

Witchyworld: Good, but the main first melody part (fuck forgot what you call the sections) shouldn't have rests, and should be played with a bit of a swing to it.  It's supposed to be a haunted waltz of sorts.  Not entirely sure how you can put that into the arrangement, but currently it doesn't seem correct.

Chilly Willy + Chilli Billi: Mostly awesome, but the arpeggios and such on page 5 are lol.  Nobody can play that, please make that reasonable.

[The Deku Trombonist]

I know my Witchyworld arrangement sounds a bit boring that's probably why I resigned it to the shelf as soon as I finished it, but I'll take a look at it later and see what I can do.
Are you only talking about the opening melody bit (measures 9-24) or the second part as well (measures 25-40)?

As for Chilly Willy/Chilli Billi, I'm reasonably ok at transcribing but I'm not so good at arranging. So aside from changing the arpeggios into normal semiquavers and therefore reducing them to only 2 octaves, I don't know what else I can do.

I'll fix them (including Native faith) up when I get home.

[KefkaticFanatic]

Dammit, your Banjo Overture is awesome except it also has the same arpeggio issue.

[The Deku Trombonist]

I simplified those arpeggios in both Banjo Overture and Chilly Willy/Chilli Billi Battle.

I tried to fix up Witchyworld a bit but I think I'm going to have to go back to the old drawing board after exams finish next week.

And I simplified the semiquaver chord bits in Native Faith.

I put all of these revisions up, so tell me what you think. Do they still need more simplifying/improving?

I've looked a bit at your replacements:

WindWaker Title needs 8va. A lot of it. And if possible, could you shrink it so that we don't get that nasty one-liner on the last page? I don't like having to have an extra sheet just for three measures. Other than that, fantastic arrangement.

Kalimari Desert is great, but somewhere in it, I see E sharps. Why? Why just not write F?

More later.

[The Deku Trombonist]

I added the 8vas and I shrank the Wind Waker Title Theme but I'm not sure where the E#'s are in Kalimari Desert. Now, I could be blind and might've just missed the obvious but where are the E#'s?

[Cobraroll]

My bad on Kalimari Desert, I looked at the bass... Oops...

And WindWaker Title is awesome. Great work.

[KefkaticFanatic]

Ok, so the low note in the bass of Witchyworld is just a quarter note that you lift, not a dotted half note.  You just hold it until the next chord in which you are going to lift and play semi-staccato, like any waltz would sound.

I really like the Animal Crossing replacements!

Do you think you would be able to do Beach Bowl Galaxy from Super mario galaxy? I've been trying to do it, but I can't figure out the bass notes, and you're far more superior in sheet-making than me,  What do you think?

[The Deku Trombonist]

I guess I could give it a shot. I haven't done a piano arrangement in a couple of weeks so it should be some fun.

[Olimar12345]

oh yeah, i did tha pikmin songs, u can find them here

[Cobraroll]

Sorry to bump your topic lately, but I've had a song on my mind for a few days now, and wanted to see if I could find sheets for it. I'm talking about the Pollyanna theme from Mother.

Well, I saw your arrangement, but the end of it made me wonder a little. What version of the song did you base the arrangement on? Measure 21-24 all go the same way, but in every version I've heard, it takes a little break midway through what would be your arrangement's measure 22.
(as hear around the 0:53 mark here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4Fc2H7jvQM&feature=related
or around 0:42 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaPXShP9D0Y
And also in versions here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmA5bGv6FSQ&feature=related
and here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_emzi7gKen0)

Sorry to be picky, but I really like this song, really want to play it, and wonder which version is correct.

[Meta-Ridley]

I absoluteley adore your banjo oveture. it's just so PERFECT!!!!!! I admire you now. your awesome. Hey, would you mind trying to do some metroid prime work please.
Thanx. your the best

[The Deku Trombonist]

I haven't been able to reply because I've been on a Jazz Camp for the past week  .

Anyway, I fixed up the Pollyanna arrangement a bit. By the way, I mainly used this video to arrange the song as per the request thread.

P.S : Sorry to keep you waiting Universe, I'll try to get the other half of Beach Bowl Galaxy done soon. School starts in 2 days and that seems to be the time when I get the most arrangements done instead of doing homework .

metroid/bkfan: I've never played any Metroid games properly so it's kinda unlikely that I'll arrange something from the series and unless somebody requests a particular song.
