Elton Classic

This is an intersting piece that is very accurate to the original piece. It is hard to get a 100% accurate rendition of this piece as Elton does a lot of ad lib when performing. This piece is mildly challenging and poses a number of interesting chord changes throughout that makes it a great piece to play. Tempo changes constantly throughout the piece which can be rather difficult to follow if the piece is not well known. However, I definitely recommend listening to this piece and learning it as it is not only an Elton classic but a brilliantly written, solemn piece with many dynamic musical changes that is a good test to any keen musician!

Funeral for a Friend

This is darn close to Elton's version. You can play it as is and you will sound fantastic. It sounds very, very good. It is a beautiful and emotional piece of music that is absolutely a joy to play. You'll want to also purchase "Loves Lie Bleeding", of course, which has the piano solo just about verbatim.

A really great piano solo! This saved me a lot of time trying to transcribe it.
