Persona 5 Original Soundtrack Selection

Japanese name: ピアノソロ　ペルソナ５　オリジナル・サウンドトラック・セレクション

English name: Piano Solo Persona 5 Original Soundtrack Selection

This is the 2nd release of this book.

Persona music is always a jam, so finding an official piano score was incredible. It has artwork dabbled between the score as well as several full-color pages at the front, introducing all the characters. All of the songs have the cityscape menu background behind them in light gray.

But even as cool as this book is as a Persona fan, the scores have some issues, which is surprising for a Yamaha book. Many of the songs try to be as close to the original song as possible, which doesn’t work for all songs and makes them sound off. Songs like “Beneath the Mask” really needed a good note reduction to reduce hand stress and sound more like the original song. But other songs like “Rivers in the Desert” are fantastic.

Overall, it’s not a bad book. Just weird at times. And if you really want to sing along with the songs, all the lyrics are posted in the back in English.
