Your Lie in April ran from 2011 to 2015 and inspired a TV anime series in 2014, followed by a live-action film in 2016. Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired and describes it like so:
Kousei Arima was a genius pianist until his mother’s sudden death took away his ability to play. Each day was dull for Kousei. But, then he meets a violinist named Kaori Miyazono who has an eccentric playing style. His monotonus life was about to change forever.
