"Whisper of the Heart" is a Studio Ghibli film directed by Hayao Miyazaki that aired in 1995.
This is a youth romance film, which is unusual for Hayao Miyazaki's work.
There was also a TV commercial with the catchphrase, "I found someone I like."
It seems that the sales of the movie itself were not very high, but subsequent terrestrial broadcasts have consistently achieved viewership ratings of around 15%.
After all, it's a work that you can't help but watch.
When I look at it, my chest feels itchy. (lol)
The main song of this song, "Country Roads", is called "Take Me Home, Country Roads" and was originally sung by John Denver in 1971.
This time, I will introduce the sheet music of the songs that appear in "Whisper of the Heart."
If you click on the sheet music image, you will be redirected to the link, so please view it there.
We will introduce sheet music posted on sister sites and other sites, but due to copyright usage fees, sheet music is often only available for viewing. Please note that it may not be possible to download or print. You can use your smartphone or tablet as is by opening the sheet music and placing it on the music stand.
We've also embedded a YouTube video of the performance in the link, so take a close look at each sheet music, or listen to it, and choose your favorite sheet music. Of course you can download and print it. Click on the sheet music image to go to the link where you can download or print.

Country Roads
The first song I'll introduce is the theme song, "Country Road."
Personally, I like the original song, but I really like the song arranged in the movie, Country Road, sung by Shizuku Tsukishima.
Sheet music ① (Introduction)
This is a simple sheet music with self-made do-re-mi.
I transposed it to C major to avoid playing the black keys as much as possible, and kept the structure simple.
Intros and interludes are omitted.

Sheet music ② (beginner)
This is a sheet music arranged for beginner difficulty by changing the key.
I think it's probably as difficult as graduating from Burgmuller.
If you can play ① without any problems, try this.

Sheet music ③ (intermediate)
Finally, this is an intermediate difficulty score for those who can play the piano to some extent.
The atmosphere changes between the beginning and the end of the song, so you may like it or dislike it.
There is also a performance video at the link, so check it out before playing.
Baron's song
The next song I'd like to introduce is "Baron's Song."
Many people may not know this song, but it has a surprisingly large number of fans.
I had never consciously listened to a Ghibli song until I started playing it on the piano, but it's a really good song.
Even if you don't know about it, if you've seen the movie, you might be thinking, ``I've heard something about this before.''
This score is not very difficult for the right hand, but the left hand has a series of chords in the first half and moves around irregularly in the second half, making it a little difficult.
Therefore, the difficulty level is intermediate
The first four chords may be out of reach for some people.
In that case, you may want to try playing without the bottom note.
