O Tannenbaum: V. Guaraldi Version
Over dit audioboek
Here is another piece from A Charlie Brown Christmas! This is a lesson on “O Tannenbaum,” in the style of Vince Guaraldi who created the soundtracks for the Peanuts gang. This arrangement starts off with an intermediate level rubato solo full of jazz chords and then moves into a more advanced arrangement with a nice walking bass in the left hand. So if you are an intermediate player you can start on the first section this year and then spend the next twelve months perfecting the second section. We also have “What Child is This” in the same style.
Over de auteur
Bill Brown began teaching music when he was in middle school alongside his mother, who was a respected classical piano teacher (Piano Teacher’s Guild Hall of Fame Recipient). In the mid 1980s he started recording lessons for his students to take home to learn “by ear.” He discovered that learning songs without any print or video helped his students develop their ability to pick out other songs “by ear” as well. The By Ear catalogue has rapidly expanded till now it includes over 1400 song lessons for more than a dozen instruments. Brown resides in South Georgia with his wife, also a music teacher, where he teaches and records lessons in his own private recording studio.
