Movie themes have their own special appeal. Their role is to convey and amplify the atmosphere and emotions of moving pictures. In many cases they take on a life of their own and it is such titles as these, classics in their own right, which we selected for this book. With this ‘Cinema Classics’ series we wanted to make sure that musicians at home were given the chance to play along with real musicians on the accompanying CD, not digitally created sounds.With a lot of effort and patience in both arranging this broad musical palette and recording the play-along CD, we have been able to create play-alongs that are live studio recordings. Through this we can make a broad spectrum of styles accessible to the player, be it a classical orchestra, a jazz orchestra, a jazz combo, a rock and pop band or any of the possible line-ups in between. We are especially proud to have top-class musicians of the contemporary European music scene on our recordings. Their unique interpretations make it a worthwhile experience to just listen to the tracks, let alone having yourself accompanied by top notch musicians. Rock, swing, bluster and groove with these playbacks.
Movie theme sheet music is something that has become more and more widely available for piano and melody instruments. This genre is particularly appealing to many musicians, mainly because the titles are so well known and instantly recognisable. That being said, up until now, guitar arrangements of movie themes have been very hard to come by. The reason for this is that film music is mostly written for large orchestras and is thought to be too challenging for guitarists.
To close this gap in guitarists’ repertoires a new edition of ‘Cinema Classics’ and created these arrangementsof great movie composers such as John Williams, Ennio Morricone, John Barry, Michael Legrand and more. All of the soundtrack titles in this book are portrayed in two versions. One version is the melody line only, in both TAB and standard notation, written with chord symbols and the lyrics, where applicable. The other version is a solo arrangement for classical guitar, again in both TAB and standard notation.
On the accompanying CD are recordings of the solo arrangements which can be used as a play-along track for the melody versions. The skill levels for these pieces vary from easier two-part arrangements to medium level arrangements that are a little more complex.
