Was looking for an acoustic cover of this great job!

I admit I made a mess of myself when I saw Fairy tail tab pop up on new additions.

@NorthStar (May 03, 2012 at 11:57 PM)

I'm unfamiliar with the source of the music, but this arrangement sounds really good. Good job on the tab.

@c-style (May 04, 2012 at 3:15 AM)

Thanks for the positive feedback guys - was first tab so glad its going over well. Just noticed it didn't add the performance notes:

Where there are trills marked, they're really slow - probably more a triplet than a trill, but a trill was a cleaner notation.

The early crescendo is supposed to be from the starting piano level to a mezzo forte, so when you repeat the theme again you can give it a bit more forte-oomph and significance.

Really important in the final section to hold the bottom notes as long as possible - which means you have to play the melody with like your ring finger and pinky. Tricky, but totally doable.

The OST goes an octave higher for the last part, but I probably wouldn't if I was going to perform it - just repeat the earlier section a bit softer. I personally can't get quite the satisfying sound I want playing past the 12th fret :/

Also, I highly recommend the Fairy Tail Anime - I believe the whole thing's available legit'ly on Hulu now. Its very shounen, with the whole the whole light-hearted comedic atmosphere and emphasis on friendship and whatnot, but there were times I shed manly tears. The music takes a very strong Irish/Celtic influence, even in the rock/metal tracks - this tab being a 'slow' variant of the Main Theme.

Thank you very much for this great arrangement. It's extremely rare to find Fairy Tail quality tabs like this. Please keep tabbing FT soundtrack. :D

Nice tab. I actually am watching Fairy Tail on Hulu currently, and I've been looking for a tab like this one.

Nice tab, man!
