Other Topics and the Prerelease / Chrono Trigger score

Here is my transcription of Chrono Trigger. There are three key centers: bars 1-25 A, bars 26-39 B, and bars 40seq. E. Have a look, and let me know if you have suggestions. Lilypond code below.

Other Topics and the Prerelease / Longing of the Wind score

« on: October 13, 2020, 01:01:29 am »

I transcribed Longing of the Wind from Chrono Trigger, and coded it with LilyPond. I'm pleased with how it turned out, however, I'd like feedback on it, if you all have the time. I noticed that there are no scores hosted on this website, and I think scores could be useful to musicians who are fooling around with the music. Anyone can do this, however, it does take time!

The forum software is not letting me upload the LilyPond code, so here it is, for those interested:
