Three piano compositions inspired by New England landscapes.
Dedicated to Helen Lin

Performance time 5:53 m


"Finally got a chance to play through ?The New England Suite??Three Poems for Solo Piano by the amazing Klaus Schader, a modern German composer. Klaus dedicated this piece to me. In Klaus Schader?s piano suite, he explored the deepest longings of human soul, then he painted it out using especially various and unusual harmonies into a master piece with colors of curiosity and warmth. Each harmony was made to wanting more. Wanting more in mystery, wanting more in the dream. In ?Delaware moon?, I hear the warmth of the moonlight dimming Delaware and it feels romantic and welcoming, yet mysterious. The unexpected disharmony of the four chords strikes you into intensive emotions, and reminds you that it was these struggles of reality make beauty even more beautiful. In the ?Old King?s Highway?, the changing of irregular meters and the use of 5/4 gives you the unsettling worries, yet Klaus uses the calming bass lines and chords to balance the scene, and it feels all is in control on the bumpy road. In ?Dusk on the Mohawk Trail?, the story line was based on the unusual chordal progressions, however the dominant sevenths chords throughout brings back the core spirit of the entire piano series-romance, mystery, and dream. It reminds one where the core of the soul is, and that is, where peace is at. Thank you Klaus!!"

With this sheet music, you can play "Sweet Home Alabama" on piano!

It's a challenging, but playable piano arrangement for experienced players.
With this sheet music, "Sweet Home Alabama" will sound amazing on piano!

The full melody is included in the piano part, so it makes for a perfect instrumental (piano solo) cover.

"Sweet Home Alabama" was first released in 1974 on "Second Helping", the second album by American Southern rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Written as a response to Neil Young's songs "Southern Man" and "Alabama" (which were about racism and slavery in the American South), there later was some controversy about the song's lyrics.
However, Young called the song a "great record", and was critical of his own songs.
Lynyrd Skynyrd's lead vocalist Ronnie Van Zant, on the other hand, repeatedly performed wearing a Neil Young t-shirt.

Without a doubt, "Sweet Home Alabama" is Lynyrd Skynyrd's biggest hit, a prime example of Southern rock, and an everlasting classic.

The song appeared in countless films, from "8 Mile" to the 2010 animated film "Despicable Me".

It's also an amazing song to play on the piano!

Here are the full lyrics to "Sweet Home Alabama":

[Verse 1]
Big wheels keep on turnin'
Carry me home to see my kin
Singin' songs about the southland
I miss Alabamy once again
And I think it's a sin, yes

[Verse 2]
Well I heard Mr. Young sing about her (Southern man)
Well, I heard ol' Neil put her down
Well, I hope Neil Young will remember
A Southern man don't need him around, anyhow

[Chorus]
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you

[Verse 3]
In Birmingham they love the governor (Boo! Boo! Boo!)
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth

[Chorus]
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
Here I come, Alabama

[Verse 4]
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they've been known to pick a song or two (Yes, they do)
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feeling blue
Now how 'bout you?

[Chorus]
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord, I'm coming home to you
