New game for the site! Yay!

[Sebastian]

Well done, bro!

This sheet is looking pretty good. Just a few tiny things:


Above is visual aid of some things you could do:
- The melody notes in the original sound detached. I would recommend adding some staccatos. Good placement of the accents, by the way!
- The measure systems are very spread apart in your version. If possible, go ahead and bring those closer together.
- The quarter notes you have on beat 3 would sound much better as half notes. They are held just about that long in the original.
- Go ahead and drag the composer/arranger names down a little bit.

Things you could do that are not in the visual aid:
- You could, if you wish, add some staccatos in the left hand. They sound slightly detached in the original, but not that much. It would be fine either way. You could also move the left hand down an octave to make the song sound fuller. Totally up to you!
- There are some high fast notes on beat 4 of every other or so measure. You have the option of adding those in if you wish.
- You can center the dynamic marking.

Anyway, great work! I'm here if you have any questions. If you are not able to change these things, whether you have Finale Notepad or if you import from another program, I am able to help in any way that I can.

THC asked me to hook him up with some files with the above changes. Here you go!
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/kablrur7p5gy77w/AACagD7g758IntjG38Uyg7Y5a?dl=0

This is a folder with all 4 files inside.

I updated the files. Took me long enough.

[Sebastian]

There are two more things I wanted to ask you about/suggest (optional things, unless the Updaters think they should be incorporated for acception).
- Those fast high notes at the end of some of the measures (on beat 4).
- There are some other notes (could be turned into chords, I believe) that you could potentially add to the left hand as upbeats.

Would you be interested in adding these or..? Up to you.
Anyone else have thoughts?

[ThatHiddenCharacter]

I added those... Did they get lost in transfer or something?

[Sebastian]

Oh, really? I don't see them on the PDF. These aren't something that I specified in my above posts. These are just two final suggestions that I just thought would be cool to add. : P
Up to you though.

Discussed it more over skype. What we did:
- Added the fast notes in the specified measures.
- Centered the dynamic marking.
- Updated some formatting.

Here are the changes:

And I've updated the files again. Go us!

This looks great now. The parts prioritised are well chosen, making it a very good and easy-to-play arrangement. 5 stars

Thanks! Now we wait.

Looks excellent, just a few small things:

- All the Bs in the LH should be Ds.
- All the quarter notes in the RH need to be flipped upwards.
- The B on beat 2 of m4 and m8 (RH) should be the G below that.

Done and done. I was worried the formatting would get messed up in the process, but we're all good! WOO!

It... did. Try opening the files now.
