The Sounds of Slavery is the closest modern listeners will ever get to experiencing the diverse sounds that surrounded slave life. An 18-track CD compilation-with most of the tracks recorded in the 1930s-let us hear, for the first time, a complex history that has been silent for too long.
“Coronas has built a musical environment with varied references, from 1960’s ‘tropical’ influences too much more diverse genres that mirror the emotional and physical journeys of the characters of Mutazione,” said Hannah Nicklin, CEO of Die Gute Fabrik. “Process has been an important product for Coronas. All recordings are done live, preserving imperfections, lo-fi aesthetics, and idiosyncrasies, to reflect the more ‘down to earth’ attitude of the community of Mutazione.”
The soundtrack was created during the 10 years that Mutazione was being developed. The music has been worked into the adventure since it was in its first sketches to the prototype phase and then to the release.
In Mutazione, players will join 15-year-old Kai who ventures off to the isolated, mutant-filled community of Mutazione in order to care for ill grandfather, Nonno. No, no this isn’t going to be a nurse simulator of some sort, there will be plenty of adventuring to do. Whether it’s making new friends, discovering scenic hangouts, uncovering long-hidden secrets, or helping restore balance to the community by planting and customizing magical musical gardens, players can expect to go on a spiritual journey.

(Do you know what this is?)
One of the main reasons why this series hasimpressed me that much is its music. There are actually two types of musicin 'A Little Princess Sara', songs andbackground music.
The songs
There are three of them, a title and a closingsong like in almost every anime of course and an additional song played in adedicated episode. All songs are of japanese pop-music style but are quitesoft and ballad-like. I have provided lyrics for all three songs. They arecopyrighted, so be careful. Here you can also find the lyrics to two of thenon-japanese opening songs.
On Ram Das' site, there aremidi files to all Japanese songs. I have taken the three of them and have putthem in a zip archive.But there are some more midi files stored here. Additionally there are MP3versions of Hana no Sasayaki and Mizuiro provided by Christian Meyer. Theseare based on the German version of the series.
Hana no sasayaki (Whisper of a flower)
The title song is the only one which is oriented by the style of thebackground music in some way. Sometimes an instrumental version of the songcan be heard in the series. Additionally, it is played at the very end of theseries. Additional to Yocky's, there are two midi files of the title song,coming to you together with a small description (which is in Japanese). Oneversion is a bit different from the original but is still very nice. Here arethe two versions together with the descriptions:
| Close to original: | (midi file,description,both) |
| Variation: | (midi file,description,both) |
| Version from Ram Das' site | |

Watashi no numeno katasumi ni saiteru

Kanashii toki wa akai hana biraichimai
Megashira ni ateru no

Nune no oki ni kono hana aruku giri

Himawari (Sunflower)
The closing song does not appear in the series itself.Here is the midi file from Ram Das' site..
Tooi michi-o aruku toki uta-o utae bachikai

Mizuiro (Colour of the Water)
This is an additional song played at a specific episode near the end of theseries. It also appears in an instrumental version in another episode.And Sara once played it on her Ocarina. (Hm, from where doesshe know that melody?) By the way, the strange object at the top of this pageis one. A Midi-file of the song is available online in two versions, one inuncompressed form or in azip-file, one version the one from Ram Das' site.

Princesse Sarah (French version)
Music: G.B. Martelli
Lyrics: A. Valeri-Manera
Princesse Sarah, mignonne p'tite fille
Fraiche fleur que baigne la rosée
Toujours caressée, d'un vent très léger
Une fleur qui est forte et qui restera bien levée, levée
Refrain:
Princesse, Princesse
Tu es bien jolie
[Tu es bien jolie]
Tu viens à l'aide
De tous tes amis
[De tous tes amis]
Refrain
Douce Sarah, p'tite aux yeux pleins de joie
Le sourire est avec toi
Tu seras capable
Le sourire aimable
D'oublier le mal, ma p'tite chérie
Refrain

Princesse Sarah, mignonne p'tite fille
Tu as reçue dans le malheur
Toujours un bon coeur Un coeur dans lequel
Il y a la lumière
Et brille toujours l'arc-en-ciel, en ciel

The background music
Although the songs are indeed very nice and Iliked them more than most other anime-songs, but the background musicsuperscedes them in quality by far. Unfortunately I am not able to provide youwith examples. WAVs would consume too much disk space and I am not skilledenough to create midi files. You must be content with a short verbaldescription here, sorry. But when you are willing to take a short trip toRam Das'site, there is a small collection of midi files available there.
I think that with the soundtrack to 'A Little PrincessSara' composer Yasuo Higuchi has created a true masterpiece reachingthe highest standards. I have never heard a soundtrack which fits the moodof a series or film that perfectly and is that expressive without beingshowy. Higuchi mostly uses classical instruments but manages to handle otherinstruments or sounds with the same subtlety on the rare occasions when heactually uses them. I was mostly impressed by the sophisticated rhythmpatterns. But this is hard to explain. It is like floating down a river in aboat. The river can flow slowly or fast, it can change its velocity, againeither gradually or apruptly and there can be currents or eddies which makeyour ride more interesting. For music it is very similar. The rhythm is notstrictly bound to the measure. It is very dynamic and supports the melodyin an ideal way. The melodies, not to be forgotten, are also great of course.
This is just my opinion: other parts of 'A Little PrincessSara' may be almost perfect. The background music is perfect.I cannot think of how the job could have been done better. For the first timethere was not anything I could critisize.
