Why Just Harmony?

1/12/2014 4:23:06 PM

Why, why, WHY do they publish a song with just harmony in the piano part? THis is a fantastic song, but if you are looking to play it on piano, this arrangement sucks. The piano part is 95% harmony. Very interesting harmony to be sure, but I dont want to play harmony; I want to play the song. This is not a piano arrangement-this is a vocal pro arrangement with piano accompaniment.

@ferretrick You have to realize that sheet music for songs like these are for accompanists and for performance of these songs. Im perfectly content with this and if you are truly at the advanced level you claim to be at, you should be able to incorporate the melody into it based on chord progression and whats written. This is pretty accurate in terms of instrumental score for piano and serves its purpose. If you expected something with the melody in the piano, you can find some decent youtube hand-written ones.

It does state that it is "Piano/Guitar/Vocal," which is ALWAYS accompaniment and voice. They publish a song with just harmony in the piano part because it is accompaniment, not a piano solo. The type of music you are looking for is Piano Solo. It is not meant to be a piano arrangement if it has voice in it. They publish it this way because when you are singing a solo, you do not want the piano playing the notes along with you; it sounds elementary and amateur.

This arrangement is deliberately like this. Im sure you can appreciate that it is meant to be used by a vocalist or solo instrument with an piano accompaniment, that, thank God, doesnt play the melody. You couldnt always get arrangements like this in the past and I, as a singer, am really grateful for this type. What you are looking for is the norm. So, if you havent seen a solo piano or organ version yet, it will be here soon.

This is a "singer pro" version of the song. That means the RH does not always play the melody, the piano part is the accompaniment for the singer.

Great accompaniment, very faithful to the original

Whilst I sympathise with the reviewer who is seeking a straight transliteration of the melody into the piano part, this is not the case here. This is a faithful piano reduction of the accompaniment of the movie version of Let It Go, at the written pitch, and works very well. The original is quite piano-oriented as youll know, dear Frozen-obsessive-like-me and this sheet music shows pretty much note for note the same for the first verse and refrain (up to the point where Elsa throws her cloak off). The subsequent refrains are notable for the fact that the original bass line has been very well transcribed (its not just a plodding tonic note all the way through) and the middle eight where Elsa builds her palace is all there with its chromatic runs. This is the hardest bit to play of the whole piece but only a few bars long and something of a challenge for those who like to be pushed. For those looking for a good accompaniment for either solo singers, C instruments, or just yourself sat in front of the piano this is highly recommended. For those who want to play the tune, chord symbols are given on top which should allow those of modest technique either to fill in from the bass line (which is almost always single finger with the odd octaves or fifths) or use their keyboards chord function. Good work musicnotes in getting such a good quality score up so quickly - Im sure this will be very popular.

Let It Go

This is an excellent arrangement for a soloist!! My 14-yr-old daughter choose it for her solo and it is the PERFECT arrangement to showcase her voice! I know it was reviewed poorly for not having the melody in the arrangement, but I am glad it doesnt! We didnt have to search for long to find an arrangement that lets her voice shine and doesnt crowd it out.

Fantastic

The most annoying thing for any transcription is when the melody is in the piano part. This is not the case with this song. This is a faithful transcription of the arrangement from the film and soundtrack and is the perfect challenge for any pianist as Lopez scores usually are for anyone who has played Book of Mormon and Avenue Q. It is a fantastic and completely faithful transcription.

GREAT!

I chose to practice this one in my singing-lessons, so I found this website, and its great! When I printed it out, I got to decide key, and since this is a very (for me) difficult song to sing at some points, it was nice to be able to lower the key. Just great!!
