I am pleased to bring you news of a brand new book today in the very popular 'Complete Keyboard Player' series. This series has set the standard for keyboard publications over many years and are used by many players and teachers of keyboard. This new book has sixteen 'vintage' favourites. The arrangements are one-line treble clef melodies with chord symbols. At the start of each song there are chord diagrams showing you how to play all the left hand chords needed for that song. In addition, the melody line has helpful fingering suggestions. Lyrics, registration suggestions and tempos are given. These songs are not ridiculously easy to play, but neither are they desperately difficult. I've tried them out on several of my adult students in the last couple of weeks and they all really like the book. I reckon it's a winner!
There are 40 pages and 16 songs. Songlist: 'Almost Like Being In Love' (Frank Sinatra), 'Blue Moon' (Mel Torme), 'A Certain Smile' (Johnny Mathis), 'East Of The Sun (And West Of The Moon)' (Frank Sinatra), 'Georgia On My Mind' (Ray Charles), 'Goodnight Sweetheart' (Al Bowlly), 'I'm Beginning To See The Light' (Ella Fitzgerald), 'Lara's Theme (Somewhere My Love)' (Maurice Jarre), 'Moonlight Serenade' (Glenn Miller), 'Over The Rainbow' (Judy Garland), 'Pennies From Heaven' (Louis Armstrong), 'The Shadow Of Your Smile' (Tony Bennett), 'Singin' In The Rain' (Gene Kelly), 'Tulips From Amsterdam' (Max Bygraves), 'Under Paris Skies' (Andy Williams), 'Where Do You Got To (My Lovely)' (Peter Sarstedt).
