I doubt there are (m)any nice songs of that length.

Well, it turns out any music is alright with my instructor which is nice to hear. Asked her about the music selection today. All I need to do is know how to play the song I choose and present it to her.

Yeah, I was considering "Natsukage" actually, but I need to sight read better. I've only recently tried to play the notes on the sheet while looking at my fingers playing the corresponding notes.

By the way, does anyone have any suggestions how I can improve sight reading?

Thanks for the suggestion though. I'll look into it although it'll be awhile since I haven't kept up with Higurashi in general.

I've basically been playing songs from the book. I was going to hold off playing anything I truly wanted to do until after I completed the class, but since the instructor is letting us choose pieces we want to do, I've decided to start early.

Some songs I've played from the book, or up to, are "The Can-Can", "Joy To The World", "Blow The Man Down" and "Why Am I Blue?"

And thanks for the suggestion on "Yoru no Uta." I've been meaning to find that song.


As for some other songs I've considered are

Romeo X Juliet - Kimi no iru Sekai
Chrono Cross - Another Arni Village
Full Moon Wo Sagashite - Eternal Snow ~ Piano Swing Instrumental

Still wondering which 3 I'll do exactly. I might even record my final exam for fun if I can
