We finally presented our presentation today!! I felt so proud of our piece. We had worked on for so long that it seems a bit empty knowing that it's the end :(
But overall, through this project, I really got to appreciate music once more. Listening to a piece is so different from playing because when you actually play it, you are the one who is in charge of the emotion, the flow, and the feelings that you pour in. And the possibilities that music offers was definitely an important idea that I relearned.
I'm so glad that I had the chance to work with the oh-so-talented Yixin. It's so unfortunate that we can't work on another Google project together next year because she's going to be in college by next winter, but I know for sure that this year's medley piece will stay in my heart forever!

End~~
So this is it....
Our Google project has been rehearsed, recorded, and presented.
In reflection, I think one of our most valuable lessons was how to collaborate. Working alone last year, I learned how to play together with Grace and make decisions together. We also learned how to write transitions between songs of different key signatures and moods. Actually, being able to co-compose the small transition sections has inspired an ambition in me to create maybe one of my own songs....(Google project, take 2?)
In any case, after much editing, in the end our medley is:
"Lake Louise 2"-- Yuhki Kuramoto
"Wait There"-- Yiruma
"Passing By"-- Yiruma
"Clementine"-- OST Spring Waltz
and a long transition inspired by Joe Hisaishi's "Summer"
Some of the transitions are rather obvious; some less so. I won't say where they are though—guess :)
sooo here it is... After much time and practice, Grace and Yixin's piano medley~~~~
