ukandreaParticipantGood evening all and @Steven,
This is my humble first recording attempt of Steven Warrens beautiful arrangement of Yiruma’s Kiss the Rain.
It is my first song were I needed to do real warm-up and stretching exercises. It has some very, very stretchy chords and I worked with replacement chords in the beginning. It took me around 2 weeks until I finally got the stretch and I am so happy that I did not give up.
I learned it without tutorial but I heavily built on my learnings from Steven’s RC101 tutorials „Spanish Romance“
and „How deep is your love“ which I can highly recommend, plus several tutorials from Andrew and Matt on how to practice, do Hammer-ons/Pull-offs/Slides/Sustain/Rubato.
I am for sure not able to hammer-on as loud as Steven yet and hell I cannot replicate his very strong vibrato but I am getting closer in small steps.
To play this song (when not recording arrrgh) is very satisfying and relaxing.I hope you like it and recommendations for improvement are as always highly welcome.
Good night,

ukandreaParticipantThank you so much @melanieh, @gi_gi_ and @rebeca.
The most delighting compliment was coming from my little girl as she said “Dieses Lied ist sanft wie ein Regentropfen” – “This song is soft like a raindrop” – which is first of all the highest compliment she could give to Yiruma as composer, as she does not know what the song is called.
Have a nice weekend,
