テンポチェンジが凄く難しいのにも関わらず、 ピアノと ストリングス・カルテットを別々に録音してしまいました。 だけど、一緒に録音したかのようにぴったりと息が合っ ているのには驚きました。

Official translation
I stayed close to the original, as it was already a piano piece. However, I added touches of color inspired by the Romantic classical piano repertoire, bringing out the delicate emotions within the music.
Original text
既にピアノ曲であったこともあり、原曲に忠実なアレンジを目指しました。しかし、ロマン派のクラシック・ピアノのレパートリーからインスパイアされた色彩のタッチを加え、原曲の繊細な感情を引き出しました。
