Sword Art Online - Swordland (Main Theme) [Piano]
Sheet music โ https://mymusic.st/animenzzz/51533
Swordland is probably one of the most iconic soundtracks from the Sword Art Online series and it's still being used in important key moments in the currently airing SAO Alicization Anime series. It's one of my favorite compositions from Yuki Kajiura, mainly because of the brilliant harmonic progression in the majestic main theme.
I have already uploaded a piano arrangement of this main theme on my Youtube Channel 6 years ago, which has become very popular in the following years. Also, did you know that both me, Theishter and Kyle Landry were uploading Swordland within one week, unbeknownst to each other? It was one of the craziest coincidences I have ever witnessed and it was really fun to compare the different piano cover versions from the three of us.
However, after a few years my Swordland video has mysteriously become unsearchable on Youtube. When you are looking up "swordland piano" in the Youtube search bar, my video will simply not appear even until today. This is the only video from my 170+ uploads which has become completely "invisible" on YouTube. That's why I decided to finally re-record it for this weeks upload to make it easier to find.
This arrangement is almost exactly the same as the 2014 piano version, and the only difference is the upgraded sound quality (and the added Glissando at the end). The most difficult part to play is still the left hand in 00:21 because you need both stamina and rhythmic precision to endure these seemingly endless arpeggio waves.
The right hand octave jumping in 02:38 is a technique I really favored during my 2013-2015 arrangement style, because I wanted to maximize the volume of the piano sound. I also used this technique in my piano arrangement for "Attack on Titan" OST as well during the climax (see link below). Nowadays, I would rather use scales or rhythmic variations to fill in the gaps between the melodies instead of octave jumps.
Alright, that's it for this week's upload! I hope this Swordland video will stay visible in the Youtube search from now on and people can find it more easily.
Next week I am going to upload one of my favorite songs from Eir Aoi, look forward to it!
See you next time!

๐ง About This Track
This 3 minutes audio journey has been thoughtfully composed to provide an authentic experience featuring waves sounds that have been carefully recorded and mastered for optimal relaxation. Every element has been balanced to ensure a consistent experience throughout, without jarring transitions or sudden changes that might disrupt your relaxation. The audio quality maintains professional standards, making it suitable for high-quality speakers, headphones, or sleep systems.
These ocean waves have been recorded at the perfect distance to capture both the powerful rush of water meeting shore and the gentle recession of foam on sand. The cyclical nature of waves naturally guides breathing patterns toward deeper, more relaxed rhythms. Each wave is unique yet consistent, creating an endlessly engaging soundscape.
Listening to this audio can provide numerous benefits for both mental and physical well-being. Ocean waves naturally guide the listener into meditative states through their rhythmic patterns. The negative ions associated with ocean environments have been linked to improved mood and mental clarity. Regular listening can help establish healthy sleep patterns and reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety.
Ocean waves produce what scientists call 'coherent' sound patterns - rhythmic, predictable sounds that the brain can easily process. Research from Brighton and Sussex Medical School found that natural water sounds trigger the rest-digest response in the autonomic nervous system. The tempo of ocean waves, typically around 12-15 cycles per minute, naturally aligns with relaxed breathing rates, creating a biofeedback loop that deepens relaxation. This may explain why coastal locations have long been associated with wellness and recuperation.
