Summary of This Sheet Music
This collection highlights Billy Joel's 1980 album through carefully crafted arrangements by David Rosenthal, the artist's keyboardist and producer. The goal is to offer faithful and musical versions while remaining accessible: the vocal melodies are naturally integrated, and the piano transcriptions preserve the original style and energy, with precise work on the keyboard parts.
You will find 10 essential songs: All for Leyna, You Were the One (C'était Toi), Close to the Borderline, Don't Ask Me Why, I Don't Want to Be Alone, It's Still Rock and Roll to Me, Sleeping with the Television On, Sometimes a Fantasy, Through the Long Night, You May Be Right. The indicated instrumentation "Piano, Voice, and Guitar" makes it an ideal resource for practicing and accompanying Billy Joel's pop/rock repertoire, both solo on piano and in a vocal-accompanied setup, with optional guitar addition.
In addition to the sheet music, the book includes a foreword by David Rosenthal, as well as photos and copies of handwritten lyrics, for a more immersive experience into the artist's world. Note: this is a damaged copy, with a worn cover and a possible label, which may be perfectly suitable for work use (rehearsals, lessons, annotations) rather than for collectors seeking pristine condition.
