Music Comment
An arranged medley of classical songs that everyone knows.
Song Production Information
I started creating this song from the experimental attempt of "what would happen if a classical song that everyone knows could be played in pop'n?". My approach was simply "wouldn't it be fun if you could play Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with those buttons", but when I started making it, I ended up facing numerous difficulties. Classical music is a genre where its tempo and dynamics change according to the conductor's emotional expressions. Also, since it's difficult because there are many detailed parts playing together to form a large group, the parts which you play will inevitably end up becoming large. Initially, there was a "purely classical version" without kicks or rhythmic parts, bu I decided that it sounded better with rhythms, resulting in this current form. When you first play this song in pop'n, it'd be a success if you feel something like "even though I know this song, I'm frustrated that I can't play it well".
