Gunjou / YOASOBI [Piano Performance · 1 Hour / For Work, Sleep, Reading, Studying BGM]

An epic cheer song produced by YOASOBI, inspired by the manga Blue Period.

It powerfully portrays the pain and inner conflicts that arise precisely because you’re passionate about what you love, as well as the determination to follow the path you believe in—carried by a fast-paced, driving sound.

Released in September 2020, the track was used in a commercial for Bourbon’s Alfort Mini Chocolate and was also selected as the march-in song for the 94th National High School Baseball Invitational Tournament.

To express the piece’s uplifting, supportive energy on piano, it’s key to build a strong sense of rise from the pre-chorus into the chorus.

In the grand choral sections, using the sustain pedal effectively to create a rich resonance will move listeners even more.
