This review is from: The Music of Vince Guaraldi (Easy Piano (Warner Bros.)) (Paperback)
This isn't exactly the trio's work note for note, it's simplified quite a bit, and the keys are changed, but still it's still fairly true to form, and definitely fun stuff.

Better than nothing,

This review is from: The Music of Vince Guaraldi (Easy Piano (Warner Bros.)) (Paperback)
As a beginning pianist, with only a year's experience, I found this book a mixed bag.
My favorite song in it is, "Cast Your Fate to the Wind". That song has been simplified to such a degree, that it seems calculated to disappoint beginning and intermediate pianists alike. The first half can be doctored up a bit to sound a little fuller, such as augmenting the beat on the left hand. The second half of the piece sounds absolutely nothing like the popular song, and you may well wonder if it truly belongs. As it happens, I purchased more complex sheet music of the same song, and there it is, more or less like this one, so I can only guess, that this is the actual composition, and for his popular release, Guaraldi simply tossed it in favor of something that actually fit. Too bad we don't get that here. The version of Linus and Lucy is okay, but not as good in my opinion as the version in, "A Charlie Brown Christmas" an easy piano book by the same company, who's arrangement is credited entirely with Guaraldi. I might add, the latter not only sounds better, but is slightly easier to learn! So the bottom line is that this book will make you work awfully hard to NOT sound much like Guaraldi, although that is probably a reasonable expectation with this music.
