* The in-game cut of this song is credited on the IIDX RED soundtrack as ピアノ協奏曲第1番"蠍火"(大きな鍵盤と円盤のための), or Piano Concerto #1 "ANTI-ARES" (arrangement for a great keyboard and disc). An eight minute version of the full concerto in three movements is the final track on the RED soundtrack. | * The in-game cut of this song is credited on the IIDX RED soundtrack as ピアノ協奏曲第1番"蠍火"(大きな鍵盤と円盤のための), or Piano Concerto #1 "ANTI-ARES" (arrangement for a great keyboard and disc).

* "ANTI-ARES" is the alternate title provided by the RED soundtrack (and on the scrolling marquee on IIDX arcade machines). Antares is the red star in the middle of the constellation Scorpio; its name means "anti-Ares". Ares is, of course, the Greek god of war, called Mars by the Romans. Antares and Mars' red flames stood in stark contrast in the night sky, thus "scorpion fire" (a direct translation of 蠍火) refers to Antares, the red flame burning in Scorpio's body, and fits wac's pattern of piano pieces named after stars. | * "ANTI-ARES" is the alternate title provided by the RED soundtrack (and on the scrolling marquee on IIDX arcade machines).

* This song is thought to be inspired from Sergei Rachmaninov's "Piano Concerto No.2 in C-minor" first movement, which has a very similar style. This would also explain the resemblance in author names (Sergei Rachmaninov / Virkato Wakhmaninov). | |||
