Hey everyone!

This piece is special to me. I have to tell you how much i love the movie The Last Samurai, watched it a lot of times and i love everything about it, the atmosphere, the scenery, the conversations.. it all matches so well together.

I am a big fan of Japan anyway, of samurai and i myself collect katanas and other samurai swords (and yes, just for the right feeling for this video i placed one of them on my sheet music stand ^^)
Soo.. i listened to this piece i don´t know how many times in my life already.. it just gives you peace while listening (i highly recommend that you listen to the original as well, not only my cover, it really is beautiful, Hans Zimmer is just a genius!)

A good friend on youtube, Noud (juggernoud1: [ Ссылка ]) was so very kind to send me the sheet music that he arranged himself.
You can obtain it here:

Ok, about the video: i planned on playing this with my piano`s strings, as it would sound more like the original, but it is not the same. Sounded kinda weird to be honest. So i decided to play the first half of it piano only, and in the second half i added strings, this way it suits the arrangement better anyway.

I hope you like it, i gave my best, i even had chills during playing it myself lol ^^

and i guess you have to be very patient, since it is a slow and dreamy piece :)
Anyway, enjoy!
