      hey Chen, since you're a classical musician i recommend checking ichika's first 2 EPs specially the songs illusory sense and a bell is not a bell, he had great classical influence at that time because of his piano background so hopefully you look into it

    As a guitarist I love your interpretation of the song, and I appreciate how faithful you always are to the original. Plus seeing a world class soloist enjoy Ichika Nito makes me feel very validated for choosing the instrument I did. It's nice to have the respect of other musicians.

    That was so fun. I would say. It went from “I miss You” (being openly vulnerable) to “I miss You” (and I can explore this feeling, be okay, and even celebrate it - but I still miss you).

    I tried covering their songs on violin, but I really missed their tones, it's the icing on the cake.
    With the violinist background the progress is pretty fast, you should try it!

    Really, really good. The challenge when starting from a classical training is always finding away of not making non-classical tunes sound stllted. It's something to do with barlines and the intensity required to project all the colours. Never mind making a transcription sound effective on a different instrument. Oh, and how about making the video of pulling it all together enjoyable to watch. Kudos to you, Ray.
