Rain (Ryuichi Sakamoto) Piano Trio Arrangement

This arrangement transforms Ryuichi Sakamotos evocative piece Rain, originally featured in The Last Emperor soundtrack, into a piano trio setting. Based on the composers own arrangement, this version remains faithful to the original structure and emotional tone while exploring the expressive possibilities of the trio ensemble.

Violin: High positions are used to fully express the lyrical and delicate lines characteristic of Sakamotos style. This allows for a soaring melodic presence that blends seamlessly with the other instruments.
Cello: Written up to third position, the cello part provides a warm and grounded counterbalance, supporting the harmonic framework while adding depth to the overall texture.
Piano: Closely follows the original piano part, offering both rhythmic foundation and harmonic richness, with subtle interplay between the string parts to enhance the cinematic atmosphere.

This arrangement captures the introspective beauty and understated grandeur of the original, making it a compelling piece for refined and expressive chamber performances.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
