Animenz Piano Concerto | Happy Birthday! ft. 69 Pianists

Dear Animenz, Happy birthday!!
After 5 months of hard work, we’re very proud to present our birthday present - The Animenz Piano Concerto - to you. We decided to write this as a concerto in honour of your arrangement style, which aims to emulate an entire orchestra.

We were very inspired by last year’s “Project:Animenz” and decided to build on the message it wished to convey. We decided to convey our gratitude through this concerto consisting of 4 movements to represent different themes:
Animato - a medley full of energetic and popular Shounen songs to show how animated we feel upon listening to your covers
Sentimento - a medley full of emotional songs depicting the tough times you’ve been through
Resurgence - a medley representing the second season of Animenz Piano Library, reaching your "true form" once again by getting your Steinway grand back
Nostalgia - a medley full of songs that are special to you.

Finally, we would also like to thank everyone that was integral to putting this project together:
Management, for organizing the entire project and distributing the work. Without your leadership and guidance, this project would definitely have not been possible.
Arrangers, for not only arranging 4 brilliant medleys but for also choosing and assigning the parts to each and every pianist.
Engravers, for beautifying the sheets to make them as reader-friendly as possible.
Pianists, all 69 of you, for taking part in this ambitious concerto

Also, a special shout-out to HayashiPiano for preparing the epic thumbnail.

This has been one of the biggest collaborations we’ve all worked on and I would like to thank everyone in this video for making this possible. It is another huge step in the anipiano community, another landmark to remember, and I’m truly proud and thankful for everyone that took part in this event. Thank you for everyone watching this video as well, for witnessing another breakthrough event in the anipiano community. And most importantly, thank you Animenz for being the glowing beam of light in our community, and in case it wasn’t apparent enough, we all admire you and see you as a role model. You are a musical sensation to us and have inspired thousands of people, so once again, happy birthday Animenz!! We all love you
