Im here again to praise the wonders of this amazing anime :D hahaha. So please bear with me. I really must thank the La Corda D'oro team, especially their musicians for putting up such wonderful music for me to enjoy (: And like any other good book I've read. I. WILL. WATCH. THE. ENTIRE. ANIME. AGAIN. And no it isnt waste time -__-, in fact, I intend to record all the songs and make a La corda d'oro CD :D muahaha.

Thanking the 7 Characters that made me see music in a whole new awesome angle.

HIHARA KAZUKI!


I never knew the trumpet could sound so brilliant. A shiny silver magical instrument to brighten up any day. Remedy for a Rainy Day.

TSUKIMORI LEN!


Though the ending is rather weird... @.@ But still, a master of the bowed instrument.
Astounding techinical skills blended well with a sea of emotions.


TSUCHIURA RYOUTARO!


I personally wanted a Chopin piece. But turned out some bastards went to turn it into some horrid rock piece. So I'll just have to settle for this. Pardon the bad quality and little snips of conversations...
He is the descendent of Chopin and Liszt, seriously. Jaw dropping notes can only be performed from his music. Its a pity that the anime values little of this great pianist ): hopefully in season 2 they'll give him a grand intro :D

SHIMIZU KEIICHI!


A dreamer that lives in his own little musical world. I wanted to use a yellow border but unfortunately youtube does not provide that sort of service... urghh.
Cherishes his cello dearly, he will perform heart warming pieces (:

HINO KAHOKO!


Though she was just recently introduced to the violin. Her music expresses her honest feelings towards music. Innocent and pure, her heart's sheet music is truly enjoyable :D


FUYUUMI SHOUKO!


Like a nightingale caged behind bars of shyness. She will eventually break out of her shell and emerge as who she truly is. No longer the meek little bluebird but a lark gliding over the clouds :D


YUNOKI AZUMA! (sry for putting him last but i have a thing with long-haired guys, esp purple)


A true gentleman as one would say. His music hides a mysterious yet charming musician behind its notes.


Lastly 2 favourite pieces of mine :D
Ave Maria Duet by Tsukimori and Hino. Note, i like the music. not the paring. lol



A Grand Anime deserves a Grand ending :D
BRAND NEW BREEZE!! (i know its an opening but nvm)



I chose the instrumental one because I think it suits well. Nothing beats better but the entire cast of instruments playing a group song!
Tsuchiura Ryoutaro - Piano
Hihara Kazuki - Trumpet
Tsukimori Len - Violin
Shimizu Keiichi - Cello
Yunoki Azuma - Flute
Only the guys are playing. Tsk.
(: Note that one part of the music actually has an extract of salut d'amour :D quite amazing, really. At 2 min 13seconds. haha

I simply adore La corda d'oro. Not only do they display beautiful melodies. I like them for this bit. Putting my all time favourite song as their grand ending song. Played not only by the piano and violin. But also with the added cello, flute and trumpet!! :O

Presenting : Salut d'amour



Intro played by piano. Followed by cello. Then flute. Violin. Then flute plays the first melody, imitated by violin. And yea :D the instruments echo each other. It is simply lovely (:



♪ instruments are the voices of music ♫
