Notes from the composer:

If you are a fan of classical piano music and Joe Hisaishi's Neo-classical, jazz-infused Japanese folk fusion music (mouthful!), you are in for a treat! This is a special arrangement of the A section of Für Elise in the style of Joe Hisaishi.

After watching a NahreSol video analyzing the music of Joe Hisaishi, I decided to attempt a similar project as she and arrange a classical piece according to Joe Hisaishi's pentatonic and jazz harmonic style. I chose Für Elise and this is the result.
