Hartmann's Youkai Girl ON PIANO! This is Koishi's theme from Touhou 11. It's also one of ZUN's greatest pieces. Its unusual and chaotic rhythm makes for a really tough arrangement. The second part features one of the best melodies ever heard in Touhou. Overall, an amazing extra boss theme.

Koishi just chilling on the piano
she judges my performance
Who?
i dont see anyone sitting there
@@FujiwaraNoSmokou1 Huh, I guess it was just my imagination
@@ThreeQuartOfficial yeah uhm she only appeared in your imagination Cause I don't see the Koishi
1:22 is where i really fell in love with Koishi's theme.
Where we all do😊
Me too, whenever i hear this melody i would find myself to saying Lyrica Live's cover
0:28 is where i did
0:07 is the part where i fell in love
it's actually kinda the best part
1:57 I noticed that you smiling
Very Wholesome
That's also my favourite part of Koishi theme
0:50 I have heard many piano covers of this song, but this is the first one that I know of that includes the counter-melody
When the counter-melody is played (in the original) to me it often "dominates" over the original melody so this rendition felt more "faithful" to the original theme
Great Job!
Still dont know what is the different between this cover and other cover, exept better ×1000
I have no words to describe how much this arrangement of Koishi's theme has touched my soul.
Thank you so much!!
0:34 This is why I play the piano : this is so satisfying, it frees me from every curse.
*Flashbacks to KKHTA*
whenever I hear covers of koishi's theme I always find the 0:50 part.Most people omit these which makes me sad but you sir played that spectacularly. I am having a hard time with that part too 😅
The music in these games is insane, and your piano skills match it seamlessly.
I'm sure you'll tackle many more of the tough tracks with ease.
hello! my dear and benevolent sister has sent me to go fishing, but i don't have a fishing rod!
i am now uncontrollably, and panically, and fearfully laughing at this
quickly, get a fishing rod, stupid dragon, you shoulda just found this girl a damn fishing rod!
Hartman's youkai girl, is such a nightmarish piece sometimes but you really nailed that awkward 7/8s timing! I really love it too It has such an amazing and nostalgic feeling to it. I still remember how excited I was to finally beat her in SA
We need to play this cover backwards and see if it sounds listenable
You've made a brilliant arrangement. It's still refreshing in the current year to listen to different arrangements from different musicians and each single one of them manages to bring something special to the original track. One can never really get too much of Touhou music!
Thank you!! By the way, you're based for having Kuja as your pfp
You absolutely nailed it! Thank you for actually working on it, I didn't expect you would actually have done it so soon hehe.
Great arrangement, 7/8 can be a real headache.
You also included the countermelody, that's something I rarely hear in the arrangements!
(I want to link you another cool arrangement from an another great composer/pianist. He has many, many arrangements and I think he can be a great inspiration for you: ruclips.net/video/yUyes3g7VsY/видео.html )
Thanks for the comment! Yeah, time signature here is kinda nuts. Also, I personally didn't know the pianist you linked, so I'll definitely check it out!
ive been trying to play some of koishi's theme and i really respect your piano playing its very good
For those wondering I just played it in reverse and it's pretty recognizable still. That doesn't only talk about the composition itself from ZUN but also how good this arrange actually is on capturing the escence of the music.
The funny thing is that it kinda trurns from a piano melody to some sort of weird string instrument. It's quite amazing. If Viddy is interested they could just upload the reversed version but I encourage anyone to try and give it a listen backwards.
HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW
My favourite song from touhou, although I've never played it I listen to this from time to time.
Wooow
this is amazing!
also love that figurine
always wanted that one ;w;
Recently this theme became one of of my favourites, thanks for arranging
"It helps me relax"
That is actually tough... mad respect. Well done.
incredible arrangement, it's actually insanely good!
this very good added to playlist many enjoying
your version is close to the original but much more intense
love it :)))))
this is so gooddd!!! :D Touhou has such a great soundtrack and you are doing it JUSTICE! !!
This is really good piano cover ❤
Your beard is magnificent!
Gosh, I'm such a geek to ZUN's music.
Boyo, now play me Pierrot Star Spangle banner!
My reg... Regarded..,. Damn...drunk....
Hold on
....
That clownpiece song...
Awesome! I love this sooo much!
I've been for many years in youtube. You're the first person who's moved me to set on all notifications (aka, click the bell). You deserve this. You're a modern virtuoso of this instrument. Please never stop. We love you 💜💜
ooooooiiii
nicely done ✨😌
Good work!!
My blood ran cold when i saw that kioshi heart throbbing adventure refrence
oh god WHERE
@@SDoggo "My hat is my friend" on the thumbnail
@@Le_Mark oh cool
It helps me relax
I’d like to hear how you take on Last Remote, the song that precedes this one. I’ve never really heard a good piano cover of it. (: Anyways, this was incredible!
Thanks! Yes, Last Remote is on my list ;)
REALLY COOL ARRANGE! I LOVE IT
koishi best girl
Beautiful arrangement. Almost sounds like i'd rather come here to listen to Koishi's theme.
damn, really skilled playing (and arranging!)
That is such a good arrangement
Very cool!
I shall observe you on this quest! good luck!
Shiidd man yourse so skilled!! subbed. i love to see these ever since i found your channel with the gensokyo millenium~history of the moon. Its super cool :)
And yeah this song heavily relies on the rhythm being a certain way.
Man, Youre A GOD at playing this song
really amazing
Touhou 11 was my first touhou game to 1cc on normal and overall is one of my favourite games of the series! Also the only game that I tried to learn playing the entire ost of, and god does koishi's theme go crazy with it's ⅞ and key changes every two bars
How?! It's one of the hardest games in the series, I can barely finish it at all on Easy.
1:22 My favorite part. 💚
amazing
Very nice arrange that conveys quite similar feeling to the original, I must say. I do remember marasy also doing an arrange called "Hartmann's Sleeping Girl" that has an entirely different atmosphere to the original, maybe check that one out?
Thanks! That is literally one of my favorite arrangements done by Marasy :)
This piece is the perfect embodiment of ZUN's classic genius. One of the most beautiful songs the Touhou Project has ever produced.
if your on mute you look like your just having a seizure 💀💀💀💀
Finally a piece of art
good performance!!
Pleasure to see you
Invisible friend
You think you can see me?
It's only pretend
It's funny, cause no one's
Been keen to my kind
So maybe the truth is
_You're losing your mind_
Pleasure to be here
Impossible friend
So long as you see me
I'll stay till the end
I'm meeting myself, too
With every day
Promise to make sure
_You don't look away_
Who are you?
Who am I?
What are you?
What am I?
Look at me
Are you blind?
Look again
Nevermind
Are you there?
Stay away
There you are
Stay away
Here I am
Stay away!
Come with me
Take it away...
Tell me your secrets
In case you forget
And I'll be your backup
Your faithful-est pet
As cute as a kitten
As smart as a crow
Got nothing to hide here
_And nothing to show_
Turn off your worries
And leave it to chance
We'll turn up the white noise
And go for a dance
Your favorite tune?
It's my favorite, too
You follow my lead
I'm following you
Give in to nonsense
There's nothing to fight
I step with my left foot
And turn to the right
So what's coming next?
That's a total surprise
Join into the game now
Look straight in my _F A C E_
Who are you?
Who am I?
What are you?
What am I?
Look at me
Are you blind?
Look again
Nevermind
Are you there?
Stay away
There you are
Stay away
Here I am
Stay away!
Here I go
No, I mean
_Stay..._
We may not have known each other all that clearly
Really, will it matter if we drift apart?
For as long as we can feign another moment loving dearly
I don't think I'll ever need to see into your heart
Memories are burning to a fading ember
Fragments of the feelings that were up to me
I'm sick of feeling sorry, sick of trying to remember
Cut my heavy conscience - I am ready to be free!
I'm a little figment of imagination
Nothing but the sort of person no-one knows
For a face to be forgotten is the fate of every face
And every pretty smile withers over like a rose
Then again, with wide and happy eyes, you see me
Play with me again upon another day
And believing you believe in me is making me believe that

Pleasure to see you
I've waited a while
You look like a grownup
But still like a child
Don't worry about me
I think I've been fine
I remember your face
_You remember mine?_
What's with the mood now?
You're frozen in fear
Like you've seen a stranger
Inside of the mirror
This isn't at all
Like the face that you showed
The first time we met
On the side of the road
Sooner or later
Was anyone's guess
So maybe a new start
Would be for the best
You look in my eyes
Yet you're looking too far
Pleasure to see you
_Whoever you are..._
A fellow Lyrica Live fan? :0
Yes
Probably best koishi arrangement so far😮
Great job!!
One day I'll be as good as you!!
This song has touched my heart around 5 times so far. It really hurts. How do you turn that off?
Seriously though, great work!
Most splendid comrade
This is incredible! Such a complex song to me :00
凄い腕前だ、great!!
woah. Nice. I subbed.
Love coloured magic when
Fantastic arrange! This is not an easy song to play or arrange. due to the time signature shenanigans and the sheer chaos of it. It's actually a palindrome. So if the song is played backwards it sounds really similar to how it does when its played forward.
Also, I have that koishi statue. The arteries/cords are such a pain since they're made of like... steel for some reason. I don't blame you for putting them somewhere else lol. The satori statue has PVC cords/arteries so its easier to deal with.
this sounds great, son.
In Sanae arrange, beautiful stuff
I counted 359 Touhou songs from 1 to 18, it is probably going to take you years and years if you decide to play all of them, its obviously impossible 😂
But, It could be possible if you arrange one Touhou game for 1 video at a time. For example, you can have Touhou 11 Arranged performance with very short versions of each song of Touhou 11 from Menu to Ending. It can be edited as a storytelling of the whole game from stage 1 to the ending song, It could be interesting with some simple editing and the usual storytelling you do with your edits. Kind of similar to the first introduction to Touhou in your channel.
Oh, it was definitely a joke at the beginning lol though I'm still planning to play A LOT of Touhou tracks, let's just say that
Also, that's a nice idea! I'll definitely look into that
thanks for counting that, I needeed it, even an AI couldn't do that
There is one problem - people rather find a particular song than a medley
Oh well, actually also one of my favorite Touhou songs.. Hmm maybe they're all my favorite
Best girl❤
Your arrangement are amazing. I wanna hear you play Satori Maiden 3rd Eye, pls?
Nice
You've done Night of Nights and Lunar Clock, can you try Flowering Night now?
Of course :)
touhou songs r almost just as hard 2 play as the games themselves
Koishi's theme will always be my favourite, especially her ULiL theme. Anyways, I gotta go because the phone is ringing ^^
The song matches your playing style, and I feel that it has a high degree of perfection.(Google translate)
Please do Borden of Life!
I really love yuyuko's final spell
Please do reach for the moon immortal smoke i think itd sound magical with your hands!!
💚💚
Koishi be looking like a lenen character
Bro I keep forgetting to subscribe :,)
All set now though
Great arrangement.
Can you try Mokou's theme next?
That one is really tough tho
Of course! In the meantime, you can hear a shorter version of Mokou's theme in my "Touhou music hits real HARD" video ;)
@@ViddyWellSA11 thx. I subbed
This is by far the best arrangement of this song I've seen! Do you have sheet music or a midi recording or anything of your arrangement that you'd be happy to share? I'd love to learn and play this next :)
Thanks! I don't have any sheets because all my arrangements are done by ear :) This is kinda of an "old" video, so unfortunately I believe I deleted the recording from my digital piano like a moron, since I wasn't thinking of sharing midi. However, more and more people are asking for it recently. I would have to re-do lots of them though. We'll see.
That sounds like a lot of work! But it sounds like a lot of people would appreciate it :) I actually had a go at starting to transcribe this last night - but already I can see I will have some difficulties in the faster bits! If I manage to complete it I'll post it here for scrutiny for inaccuracies haha. Would be awesome to have a faithful sheet/midi of your masterful arrangement
u should try playing crazy backup dancers from touhou 16
By any chance, could you arrange the song Testify? It's easily one of my favorite tracks from Arcaea (despite its insane in-game difficulty.)
i love it
edit: also did u just reverse it in 0:50 👀
Last Remote WHEN???
I saw your comment there btw :3
Nice lol
It's a very special piece for me, I want to arrange it in the best way possible :)
So it'll take some time I think
thank for accept my request
next maybe
kobito of shinning needle
and i still learn hartmann's youkai girl i not good like you but i kepp tryig
Keep at it! :) More Touhou is on the way!
I just bought my electric piano and I don't know how to play this good like I don't have any idea
Would like to play touhou songs on my piano
Can you try Monochrome Eye from Len'en Project
Sure! I was hoping someone would request Len'en at some point hehe
I love JynX music :)
Pretty good mait
Dont you have a twitch?
Thanks! No, I don't have Twitch :)
WHAO
SouAggressive
There's just something about the music from Touhou 10-Touhou 12
Yeah I agree, some of ZUN's greatest work
Especially 11 imho
could u try to arrange wind god girl from touhou?
Yes, of course :)
idk what would it sound on the piano since is mostly from zunpets
@@Darkusaido idk but there is a piano solo at some point in the full version (in Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red)
0:33 no fucking way you played it
Now cover the T+pazolite remix(Censored!!)
can you play byakuren theme?
Of course :)
@@ViddyWellSA11 great, i will waited for it, have a great day mate! also you gain 1+ new subscriber :)
holy fuck 0:35
So, is this harder than Nights of Nights?
Well, it really depends on your technique. If you usually have trouble keeping up with weird/crazy time signatures, then Koishi's theme is gonna be really hard to master. It's not the hardest song TO PLAY, but making an arrangement that actually works...that's the hard part!
However, Night of Nights requires A LOT of stamina and is WAY faster. If you have trouble with crazy fast passages and/or your hands get tired easily, then Night of Nights is way harder.
I've been practicing these songs for many years now, so I don't really have any particular problems playing them. Night of Nights still gives me a challenge from time to time though.
May you play "Peace Sign" from MHA opening? I hope you like it to play because just i want to hear it by your style ;)
I don't know the name of all OP soundtracks, which season was that?
@@Darkusaido It must be season 2, as i remember.
Even harder than Rush E 2?
If we're talking about Touhou music, then Koishi's theme is definitely one of the toughest to arrange. You really gotta learn how to deal with its specific time signature. But if we're talking about ALL of my other covers, then I've played even harder pieces :)
(Rush E 2 and Megalo Strike Back come to mind)
Haha, jk, it's obvious that it was meant that way
Look guys, its Censored!! By t+pazolite
Bad joke
なんでキリストみたいな見た目なんだ…
