I absolutely love this manga. 2 cours, ha? Great! And I don't know if it can "beat" Nodame Cantabile, mostly because of how different they are. Sure, both are focused on music (there should be more shows like that ^^), but the tone of this series is different. While NC was more light-hearted and funny, this one has a more melancholic tone... Anyway, really looking forward to it. This is gonna be such a great year!

I also would like to see more series dedicated to music like this.... Still, I may give the first couple eps of the manga a read to get an idea of what I will be getting myself into. ^^

I don't know the manga but that sure is a lovely trailer. Animation and art direction look really nice and I love the design.
It's the first time Kyohei Ishiguro is the chief director of a series. His Amagami SS+ (ep7) was cool and it was said he was inspired by Shin Oonuma & Ei Aoki with diagonal layouts and how he uses lights. I'm curious how he will handle a TV series but this PV is promising (that shot under the tree is neat). And the promo picture is gorgeous

As far as I can tell it there is a sprinkling of both of the things you mentioned thus far Kanon - but there is a whole lot more. I guess I would put it more in the category of "coming of age" as opposed to slice of life. But it has some pretty serious elements to it.... Good stuff for my tastes at least. I wonder how they are going to animate some of the elements in the story, though? Or rather I wonder how effectively they will do so? There is music present, as evidenced from the OP - and I wonder how effective they will be at presenting that? For those who just can't wait I would recommend checking the manga out - it is a good read and certainly has made my grabbed my interest for the adaptation even more....

I agree with what Flower said, this has both the elements of coming-of-age and of romance. And I really do recommend reading the manga. There are 34 chapters released so far, but only 12 of them have been translated, so I only know a third of what's going on there, but so far, so good.
