A great review but let me disagree on this one. First we have MC who plays something that later will receive a very enthusiastic response by pretty much everyone except he've played stuff which rather suit quiet evening among friends (adaptation for acoustic guitar of some cheesy movie soundtrack I beleive? Not sure) than on-stage performance which suppose to be both encouraging for the J-girl and impress/captivate the audience. But alright, lets chalk it up to spontaneity and selected, well-meaning/supportive audience. The later Rouster reaction is no way fitting though, even Tommy somehow was impressed, lmao.
Then MC plays lets call it Jill's theme which actually encourages her to come out in order to play it together - a very simple yet neat idea but then they're playing it... in unison. I get that MC's just literally copied her shiiieet music (wonder whether the term "scores" hasn't been used intentionally) but again, that makes no sense from on-stage performance perspective. The different instruments are suppose to compliment each other, not to just 100% repeat - that's retarded.
But then we have the main recital part and oh boy: first she plays some silly tune which would fit perhaps 5th grade recital or something but not a performance by a person who as we been told is practicing music for years. Also, the tune is accompanied by some invisible background keyboard - that's just stupid.
And finally, she plays the most recognizable Chopin's Nocturne. Now we're talking, right? Yeah, kinda. I'd still prefer something way more impressive and fitting for college performance, like Vivaldi's adaptation for piano piece or even something like Rachmaninoff op.23/5. Why not? If she's a girl doesn't mean she wouldn't want to impress people by her goddamned gig.
That said, I still appreciate the DPC's effort. He could half-ass this in a far, far lazier manner. And since the subj is a massive hit, this will be some notable bar to clear for others. Like, I heared there's a game called "Become a Rock Star" almost w/o any real musical bits and rehearsals.
