4.0 out of 5 stars
The Standards and the not-so-Standard,
This review is from: Big Book of Swing (Piano/Vocal/Guitar) (Paperback)
This book featured piano and guitar reductions of some of the most famous pop tunes of the Swing Era. The music is primarily accompaniment for vocals, though. Only "Air Mail Special" and "In the Mood" don't come with lyrics. That's great for singers, like me, but my friends who are pianists were disappointed by the lack of complexity in the accompaniment.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Fun and has so many great songs,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Big Book of Swing (Piano/Vocal/Guitar) (Paperback)
There are 316 individual songs here, some I recognized and many that were new to me. The popular songs include bye-bye blackbird, drop me off in Harlem, five guys named moe, I've got you under my skin, it doesn't mean a thing if it doesn't got that swing, it's delivery, making whoopee, manhattan, my baby just cares for me, opus one, route 66, that old black magic. The playing standard is definitely intermediate; not really for a new beginner, but you feel comfortable if you have completed Alfreds all in one adult book 2.Definitely a lot of fun and great for sing along. It is Great value in this all in jumbo book for piano, guitar and voice. Bear in mind this is a big book, so I have broken it down into two parts using my new GBC combo bind C55, which Is great value too! |
