I was thinking about banging on my piano, which reminded me of Nodame Cantabile; which lead me to open Photoshop instead of banging on my piano. The goal was to be as minimal as possible, with the focus being evenly between Chiaki and the music.
Also, you may be asking, "Danny, surely those notes have nothing to do with Allegro Cantabile, the first opening?" to which I reply with--why yes, they're the first 2 measures of the song (for piano). If you want to actually play it, it's 4/4 time, the third chord is B,C fourth is G,G (just Google the sheet music).

i think this is very original wall. it's rare to see bg with notes... it's interesting to see the original scan... and... just a suggestion, maybe it will be cooler if the typo will not overlap the image >.> Overall it's a nice attempt!Keep up the good work! :)

Nice wallpaper. The only thing perhaps I would comment on is the text location, but its not a big problem anyways.

Suits the series perfectly! I love the omission of the face, nice arrangement of typography!

I love wallpapers like this one. The only thing that bothers me is the typography on the wallpaper. If you'd choose a different font with different colors, this would be pretty nice! The text is just not blending well with the background. It's rather distracting. Why not, add some kind of glow, or "border" like thing to the text. Something that will make it separate a bit from the notes in the background.

I LOVE IT! I think you could play better with the typo, and fading the character, i think the idea is great, the curve is maybe covering the view of chiaki, i mean thinkin' as an acoustic place is not placed very well, the curve should come from the right inferior corner then. This have a lot of potential is a great idea i like the gradients, the redish gray. nice keep up!

Nodame could have been placed better and higher resolution would be nice. Other than that, I really like it. I just started watching the series and I'm loving it. It makes me want to play my piano all day lol.

I really like the simplistic look of this - the concept is interesting, and I think it's well executed. Nice job.

Love it: the black and white, the large notes behind, the style of the decor... Funny thing with this wallpaper is, it reminds me that I have to practice my violin right about now. :D
