This
collection of nine
classic Rock tunes spans
five decades of rock
history. The arrangements
in Rock Philharmonic
contain complete versions
and lead sheets of
original hit songs by top
groups and artists: Jerry
Lee Lewis, Bobby Day,
Sonny and Cher, The
Rolling Stones, The
Eagles, Journey, and
Green Day. Each piece
includes a flexible
arrangement that allows
the melody, harmony, and
bass parts to be played
by all sections in the
string orchestra, like or
mixed instrument groups,
quartets, or
trios---allowing players
to learn the component
parts of rock and roll,
play the classic
arrangement, create their
own arrangements, or
perform the tunes solo.
In addition to string
orchestra, the
arrangements are also set
for electric strings with
optional guitar/electric
guitar, piano, and
drumset.
The
student book contains a
full-length, two-page
play thru version of the
melody, which follows
closely the original
recording and includes
clearly labeled Intro,
Verse, Chorus, Bridge,
and Outro sections. The
bass and harmony
component parts are then
presented in a lead sheet
format, along with a flow
chart that matches the
order of the Melody Line
Play Thru. The teacher's
book contains a full
score and reproducible
piano and percussion
parts. Guitar chords
appear in all parts. For
easy practice, the
accompanying CD has two
tracks for each piece---a
complete track and a
backing track---and TNT 2
software to mix the level
of each instrument,
change pitch, change
tempo, and create loops.
The CD can also serve as
an aid to learning by
ear.
