Mark of Two Important Notes Introduction: Hi, my name is Mark of Two (internet name obviously.) The Storms Calling is a song I wrote based on the Song of Storms by Koji Kondo (Im sure most of you know that already.) You can find my YouTube page here: http://www.youtube.com/user/lMeMark42l Also, you can download the song here: http://tindeck.com/listen/oeoc Changes: The Storms Calling version on my YouTube page is slightly different than what is written on the sheet music. The base line and dynamics for Section D (bars 163-228) has been changed to make it a bit more interesting, since it felt too much like Section C (bars 109-162). I didnt really want to upload yet another version on my YouTube page, especially since the changes are relatively minor, but I did upload it to my Tindeck account. The download link found in the introduction above has the version of the song that closest matches the sheet music. About the sheet music: I am not very good at writing sheet music. I did the best I could, but the sheets still dont tell you everything about the song (tempo, for example, is missing.) If you want your playing to sound the same as how I play it, I recommend downloading the song and using it as a reference. However, I personally think that music is a very personal experience, so dont be afraid to play the song however you think it suits you best. (PS: Sorry about the random colors in the sheet music, I dont know how that happened and I dont know how to fix it. I recommend printing in grey scale or black and white.) How to play Section A (bars 1-32): If you play Section A as written, it will not sound like the way I play it at all. When I originally created Section A I wanted to simulate rain. So, to create the effect of randomness, I played it without an actual time signature or tempo in mind. The note lengths are also not accurate. All chords should not be played as chords; instead, they should be played one note at a time and at random times. The sheet music gives an estimate of how I played it, but this section is intended to be free of any form. The only part of Section A that should be played in time is the last two bars (bars 31-32). This brings the randomness to an end. Good luck and have fun. :D
