5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Book.
This book was really great. It reffers to the movie TITANIC, but still. If a moviemaker read this before the movie was even thought of, he would have immediatley try to make the movie. Although this is not my favorite book, I think of it highly. I recommend this book to anybody interested in the movie or who likes the book. It is very good.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the first "Titanic" Piano Songbook, July 29, 2000

This review is from: Back to Titanic (Songbook - Piano) (Sheet music)
This sheet music collection is of course from James Cameron's "Titanic." Specifically, these songs are found on the second music CD that was released from that movie, "Back to Titanic."

I bought this book because from that second CD there was one particularly good piano solo, "The Portrait." However, I did not find it as enjoyable to play as I thought I would. In the other songbook from "Titanic" that was released is a piece entitled "Rose." That is very similar to "The Portrait" except that "Rose" is a lot more powerful and compelling. "The Portrait" requires a softer touch that what I prefer in piano music.

The other pieces were not as enjoyable as the first "Titanic" songbook (which, by the way, is the best book of soundtrack music, and it can easily be found by searching for its ISBN: 0793592240). A lot of the pieces in this second book are based on songs rather than the score.

Contents: AN IRISH PARTY IN THIRD CLASS * ALEXANDER'S RAGTIME BAND * THE PORTRAIT * JACK DAWSON'S LUCK * A BUILDING PANIC * NEARER MY GOD TO THEE * COME JOSEPHINE, IN MY FLYING MACHINE * A SHORE NEVER REACHED * MY HEART WILL GO ON (LOVE THEME FROM TITANIC) * EPILOGUE * THE DEEP AND TIMELESS SEA

The "My Heart Will Go On" song is also in the first "Titanic" songbook. That is a piano/vocal/guitar piece, and I did not find it as enjoyable on the piano as the score music. The rest of the pieces are piano solos (with vocal music included for "Come Josephine"). One big plus in my mind for the book is that the publishers did not waste money on full-color inserts from the movie.

I recommend the other "Titanic" songbook first, and then this only to those who really like the music from the movie.

3.0 out of 5 stars Vague description, January 9, 2007
This review is from: Back to Titanic (Songbook - Piano) (Sheet music)
I had checked out a similar book just called TItanic at the library which is series of arrangements of the main (Celine) song. Instead the one I purchased is a compilation of all the background music and the main song at the end. If there had been a list of the titles or a way to preview I wouldn't have bought.
