Dreary Summer Day (Piano Solo) - AlexGB231 (The Big Return - Feeling the Beat Edition)

This piano solo was an exclusive section that featured in the premiere version of this song. It is actually me playing the piano there, it's actually the first time I personally played piano for this channel, let alone the first time I've actually performed a composition myself.

It starts nice and quiet, with a relatively simple melody and chord pattern, and then halfway through, some more syncopation is used and the pace builds up until the very end of the piece, which ends on a nice delicate A minor chord to set up the return back to the main song. It's a really nice break from the song, and it really stood out in the premiere! I think I probably rushed a bit too much in the second half, but overall, I think I'm pretty pleased with this take. It was my fifth take that I did, and I performed it all in one go, without any edits or anything.

The sheet music is also on the screen so you can follow along and maybe even try it out yourself!

Enjoy!
