Maison Ikkoku Orchestral Soundtrack Project ( Remake )
I’ve decided that I will extend what I did with an earlier piece of music from Maison Ikkoku ( A Bell Rings at Dawn ) to other pieces from the Maison Ikkoku soundtrack. This will basically culminate in an album of sorts, an orchestral album of Maison Ikkoku orchestral arrangements containing somewhere between 5-10 pieces of re-done music pieces from the original soundtrack along with some piano versions.
Completed tracks so far:
Akatsuki ni Kane wa Naru – ( A Bell Rings in the Dawn , a very lovely piece which plays at the end of episode 93 as Godai and Kyoko watch the snow fall. ) – Original Composer: Sugiyama Takuo
(Strings orchestra version) Kanashimi yo Konnichiwa – ( Hello, Sadness, concludes the series at the end of ep 96. A very bittersweet but hopeful piece. ) – Original Composer: Kawai Kenji
Tokoeizaka o Noboreba ( Wish I Could Go Up Tokeizaka , A short piece that plays occasionally throughout the series at thoughtful moments moments. ) -Original Composer: Kawai Kenji
Kaerimichi ( The Road Home , another very short piece with a very homely feel to it, usually played as the characters are returning to Ikkoku-kan, or similar scenes ) – Original Composer: Sugiyama Takuo
Yoru no Ame ( Night Rain, was played usually during scenes involving Souchiro, including the beautiful moment in the final episode when Godai speaks to Souchiro’s grave alone for the first time) Original Composer: Sugiyama Takuo
Currently Working on: Will update later
