[The Detective Is Already Dead S2 OP] Bouquet for this heart (この心臓に花束を) TV Size-Koume

Hello, this is Tully Piano. 🎹✨

This is the piano cover sheet music for "Bouquet for this heart (この心臓に花束を)" TV Size (1 min 30 sec) by Koume, the opening theme of the anime The Detective Is Already Dead Season 2.

This song contains a sorrowful yet overwhelming narrative of moving forward while embracing someone's warmth in the heart amidst the pain of loss. Focusing on the lyrical melody hidden within the original's fast and flashy band sound, I delicately arranged it so that a single acoustic piano can express both its unique chilling emotion and explosive climax.

[Song Structure & Rehearsal Mark Guide]

• Intro (Bars 1~6): A chilling sense of loss

• Mark A (Bars 7~10): Quietly whispered memories (Verse)

• Mark B (Bars 11~16): The last promise in your arms (Pre-Chorus)

• Mark C (Bars 17~27): When my heart breathes inside you (Chorus Climax)

🎹 Tully's Playing Tips: Unlike a typical instrumental intro, bars 3~6 of this sheet music are a very attractive section where the vocals and instruments intertwine from the beginning. When the vocal holds a long note for 4 beats in the 3rd measure, the melody of other instruments fills the empty space.

To bring both flows to life three-dimensionally with just the right hand, I clearly distinguished them using the stem direction and slurs.

• Notes with stems pointing up: Main vocal line

• Notes with stems pointing down and connected by a slur: Instrumental melody that fills the space

When playing, it is difficult to keep pressing the 4-beat vocal long tone (stems up) with your fingers, so please use the pedal sufficiently to connect the sound without breaking the resonance. With your fingers freed thanks to the pedal, play the instrumental melodies tied with slurs a bit more lightly and elegantly. You'll be able to beautifully recreate the feeling of the main vocal and session instruments breathing and conversing together with just one piano!
