"Santorella Publications' mission is to provide the best assortment and quality of music in print. Starting out of a small damp basement, we have emerged as a company determined to differentiate itself from all the others. Our commitment to customer satisfaction and product diversity has fueled many years of phenomenal growth. The varied interests and strengths of our talented teachers, authors, editors and arrangers have played a large role in the success of our unique catalog. Our piano library has quickly become one of the most respected educational as well as recreational catalogs in the industry. Several of our titles have been selected by the New York State School Music Association (NYSSMA) for inclusion in their manual as required audition pieces for competing students. From our best-selling intermediate edition of Beethoven's ""Ode To Joy"" for classical piano to ""Jazz Piano Cocktails"" for auditions in jazz, the diversity of our catalog continues to expand. Our award winning ""Keyboard Kids Method"" by Carolyn Carson and ""Exceptional Classics"" by Jonathon Robbins have been included in the Music Teachers Association of California (MTAC) resource guide since 1997. This is further evidence of our diversity as well as our coast to coast presence. Our ability to close the gaps in the industry has inspired a large following on five continents in all print categories. We strive to provide a quality product that satisfies every customer's needs.
This is at the root of our latest title, ""101 Popular ""Three Chord"" Easy Favorites For Piano,"" edited and arranged by Jonathon Robbins. This fabulous collection of well known familiar melodies is sure to create enjoyment for the beginner, novice or recreational pianist. Its songs are reminiscent of our youth, maturity and heritage. It has been decades since a beginning pianist could find such variety in one single edition. 101 Popular ""Three Chord"" Easy Favorites For Piano includes Ceremonial Party Songs, Legendary Classical Pieces, Patriotic Songs and Marches, Popular Jazz Standards, Stephen Foster Memoirs, Familiar Vocal Standards, Beloved Sacred Hymns, Traditional American and Ethnic Folk Songs, Elegant Wedding Classics, Significant Unforgettable Ballads and Christmas Songs and Carols. Our goal is to provide simple arrangements of 101 familiar favorites. Although the majority of musical progressions are based on three chords (I-IV-V), more complex jazz standards require additional flavor. As a result, it is necessary to deviate from these three basic chords on occasion. With that being said, Jonathon Robbins has done a magnificent job of making each and every tasty title playable at any level. Our intention was to provide a diverse assortment of the most basic simplified arrangements and we are proud to say that we have accomplished that task with our latest title, ""101 Popular Three Chord Easy Favorites For Piano."" Enjoy!".
