Kate Bushes Arrangement is Glorious
Wow, I am so excited that Maxwell re-did this amazing song. As you can tell I am a big Kate Bush fan ;-). It is so difficult to find scores by her. I am glad that Maxwell kept the integrity of this piece. I encourage you all to get this work of art. Farewell,

Beautiful song, great translation
I never heard this song until one day I was flipping through channels & this video was on. Really great performance by Maxwell on this cover. The piano version is not too difficult, probably the most difficult part is dealing with the flats (& there's only 3 or 4 - I think, can't recall). It picks up the melody perfectly, but doesn't pack the emotional punch of the recording. One thing I dislike is that the vocal runs are represented in the music & don't really help (IMO). The song sounds pretty simple to start with so in that sense, the tranlation is pretty much bang-on. Overall, nice sounding piece, medium difficultly, great translation.
