#your lie in April musical

[meandmypagancrew]

Me, explaining to my friend how it’s funny that Dean John Wilson was the original West End L and is now playing a character named Watari because most versions of Death Note feature a character named Watari who is probably the only person L truly trusts and loves:

My friend, who is just here because she likes Frank Wildhorn:

I showed this video to my mom because we’re buying tickets to see this musical and she said “It’s just like that guy you like!”

Additional probing revealed “that guy [I] like” is…. Barok van Zieks

I’m sorry Your Lie In April has a MUSICAL ADAPTATION and I found out through a GTLIVE VIDEO?!

anyway catch me crying over One Hundred Thousand Million Stars I love this song I hope there’s an official cast recording soon

[novelsandnewfies]

There’s a Your Lie In April stage production?!?!?!?!? I don’t think I’m emotionally equipped to deal with this

hi! ~a belated studyblr intro~

just realized i never did a proper intro for this blog!

so, hello, i've been flip flopping between taking lessons and self-studying piano for several years and this blog was (and still is) intended to be a studyblr to track my progress.

i'm currently self-studying as my time is split between this and STEM studies (more on that on my side blog @studentbyday) but i really really hope to finally establish a consistent practice (after struggling to do so for many years 😅) so i know i will be able to handle weekly lessons again 😤

🎓 goals for piano/music studies:

enjoy playing music (including without headphones)

establish sustainable routines so i can practice piano every day or at least every week

get over stage fright and paralyzing perfectionism

improve my sight reading

motivate myself to learn more music theory and use it to analyze my favorite songs

find fellow music enthusiasts on tumblr!

ultimately play piano at an LRCM level 🙈 (as of 2024, i am currently L6-7 in baroque/classical, L8-9 for romantic...yeah, kind of all over the place since I've been treating this very informally over the years and keep taking hiatuses lol)

💗 interests/inspirations:

classical music (my favorite composer is chopin but beethoven is a close second)

jazz

your lie in april (i read the manga online and really really wanna see the anime!)

Tiffany Poon and Animenz's playing

🎹 accumulated study tips: resources, practice strategies, coming back after hiatus, hand independence and method books

"I would bet the house that Death Note will be [in London] very soon as a full production, and followed closely by [Your Lie in April], no question, and then coming to New York." - Frank Wildhorn

Frank Wildhorn's second manga musical, Your Lie in April - The Musical, is currently in rehearsals and will have concert performances in London on April 8th and 9th.

HUH???

Of all the things to see today, this was not what I expected at all- but I'm very excited (I've seen clips it's very impressive guys, I swear)

But: This is the 5th Japanese stage play/musical to be performed outside of Japan this past year

(Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro, Your Lie in April, Death Note being the other 4)

(*Note: Death Note is a technicality, The Musical was originally translated into English back in 2011, but never had anything more than a small amount of off broadway performances and a concept album, this was it's proper English debut, and the other 3 are all still performed in Japanese, to my knowledge)

But all I'm saying is that there is hope that the rights could become available to these for community theaters down the line, and I for one, am very very excited about that possibility
