Classical Pianist Reviews Animenz's UNRAVEL

A classically trained anipianist reviews and analyzes Animenz's Unravel.

Or the Animenz fanboy is back to fanboying over Animenz for another 20 minutes.

Animenz's Unravel has become the gold standard in the anime pianist's repertoire. There are more Unravel covers than I can count, and often times how good a pianist is is judged off their attempt of this insane work. Animenz himself considers this his most "punishing arrangement", and Theishter has made a strongly worded video discouraging beginners and even intermediate pianists from learning this piece.

But what goes into Animenz's own performance of this? Why is his video still one of, if not, the best covers of his arrangement out there? What are the techniques that he's using or implementing to get the musicality and the technicality that he's going for?

It's time to break down Unravel. And it's time for you and me to have our minds blown.

Also, stick around to the end of the video because I have a bit of an announcement!

*My screen capture software for some reason didn't record the video audio as well as I wanted, which is why you'll hear Animenz stutter a tiny bit every once in a while. Sorry about that!

*Note: I talk a bit about relaxation in the softer parts. By relaxation I mean a release of tension in the forearms by applying less weight in the softer parts to regain stamina for the louder ones. Obviously the hands and tempo are still going at the original tempo.
