Star Wars -- A Musical Journey: Music from Episodes I - VI (Five Finger Piano) (5 Finger) Review

Star Wars -- A Musical Journey: Music from Episodes I - VI (Five Finger Piano) (5 Finger)

As a teacher of over 15 years I am always looking for modern and popular songs for my male students. Finding beginner level music can be a challenge. This book was great as it had a good collection of songs form Star Wars and accompanying duets. I have used several with students that have taken about 4-6 months of lessons.

The entire Star Wars saga is encompassed in this piano sheet music collection! Set amid stunning imagery from the films, these piano arrangements bring the magic of Star Wars to life as they masterfully invoke the grand romanticism of John Williams's epic, award-winning scores. Included are the most definitive and memorable pieces from each of the six Star Wars episodes arranged by Tom Gerou. These arrangements are set in traditional five-finger style, with the melody split between the hands. For performance ease, student parts have no key signatures, dotted quarter notes, triplets, or 16th notes. Optional duet accompaniments are also provided for a fuller, richer musical experience. Titles: 20th Century Fox Fanfare * Across the Stars * Anakin's Theme * Battle of the Heroes * Binary Sunset * Cantina Band * Duel of the Fates * The Imperial March * Jawa Sandcrawler * Luke and Leia * May the Force Be with You * Princess Leia's Theme * Star Wars (Main Title) * The Throne Room * Yoda's Theme.

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (Piano Solos) Review

Film composer extraordinaire John Williams closes out the Star Wars saga on a good note (no pun intended). Those who currently own other Star Wars sheet music will notice that this book includes previously published pieces such as "The Force Theme" and "End Title/Credits". However, the hauntingly sorrowful "Anakin's Dark Deeds" and the fast paced Maestoso "Battle of the Heroes" in orchestration take the viewer on an emotional roller coaster that has "Duel of the Fates" like intensity. This book, written for piano solo, is a farily accurate representation of the soundtrack. However, you will find that some of the pieces are not in their original key and require tranposition to be played along with the soundtrack. For a fan of John Williams or Star Wars, this is a book worth having in your collection.
