BILL WITHERS

Ain't No Sunshine Words & Music by Bill Withers

Taken from his aLbum Just As I Am, this song proved to be the breakthrough hit for BiLL Withers and won him the 1971 Grammy for Best Rhythm & BLues Song, the first of three such awards. Inspired to take up singing during

nine years service in the US Navy, his songs are LargeLy autobiographical, with an earthy vocaL deLivery.

Hints & Tips: Mark in the crotchet beats with small Lines above the stave in bars 17-21 to heLp you master the syncopated rhythms. You couLd aLso tap crotchet beats with the Left hand during its rests to check you are pLacing

the notes in the right hand correctLy.

CASABLANCA

As Time Goes By Words & Music by Herman Hupfeld

Play It Again Sam. The famous line was never spoken in the movie, but pianist Dooley Wilson would have been the man playing this song again if it had. Wilson was the movie's only leading player

who had actually been to Casablanca.

Hints & Tips: This song is best played with a light swing feel. Watch out for the accidentals.

LEONA LEWIS

Bleeding Love Words & Music by Jesse McCartney & Ryan Tedder

The biggest selling UK single of 2007, recorded by the winner of the third series of TV talent show The X Factor and Hello! magazine's 2007 Woman of the Year, this song was the UK No.1 single for six weeks and is included on

Leona Lewis's debut album Spirit, the fastest-selling debut album ever in the UK.

Hints & Tips: It would be easy for this piece to sound mechanical by virtue of the very straight rhythms. However, you can avoid this and create an expressive performance by emphasising the most important note in each phrase.

Underline the word in each phrase which you feel should carry slightly more weight, e.g. 'love' in bar 18.

ELVIS PRESLEY

Can't Help Falling In Love Words & Music by George David Weiss, Hugo Peretti & Luigi Creatore

This song featured in ELvis Presley's 1961 movie BLue Hawaii. ELvis would end his concert with this tune, based on a French folk song called PLaisir D'Amour. It went on to be a hit for Andy Williams, The Stylistics, and with the

addition of a reggae beat, for UB40.

Hints & Tips: The rhythm in bar 2 is much easier to play if you count a bar of four at the same time. Make sure the quaver (eighth note) triplets fit into the last (fourth) beat.

THE LION KING

Circle Of Life Music by Elton John. Lyrics by Tim Rice

The opening number from the Disney smash hit film of 1994. More commonly known for his pop records, Elton John teamed up with Tim Rice in Elton's first film soundtrack since 1971.

Hints & Tips: The rhythm in bar 7 (repeated in bar 16) is quite tricky. Try practising the right hand alone whilst counting a bar of 4/4 aloud.

JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR@ DREAMCOAT

(Lose Every Door Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber. Lyrics by Tim Rice

The show that gave rise to the careers of both Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber. The show had humble beginnings when in 1967, Lloyd Webber was asked to provide a pop cantata for his brother's school concert.

Hints & Tips: Pay close attention to the bars in which the left hand has important musical material (e.g. bars 8, 9, 11 etc.) These should be clearly heard. Also, there are lots of crescendi, diminuendi, and hairpins to observe.

PASTY CUNE

Crazy Words & Music by Willie Nelson

The first performance of this song by country music superstar Patsy CLine at the Grand OLe Oprey in 1961 was acclaimed by three standing ovations, maybe partLy because she was then on crutches following a near fataL road

accident. Its success widened her crossover audience, but she died just two years Later in a pLane crash.

Hints & Tips: Practise the tricky finger manipuLations that this piece requires in order to span the wide vocaL range of the meLody Line sLowLy, onLy putting the two hands together when you are comfortabLe and confident.

ABBA

Dancing Queen Words & Music by Benny Andersson, Stig Anderson & Bjorn Ulvaeus

The ultimate disco song that finally made Abba big in the US, was originally called BoogaLoo. It was No.1 Stateside and almost everywhere else in 1976.

The drum part was inspired by George McCrae's 1974 disco hit, Rock Your Baby.

Hints & Tips: Take care with the rhythm of the melody. Sing or say the words as you play, to help you, and practise (especially the R.H.) slowly. Listening to the original recording may also help.

EASTENDERS

Theme from EastEnders Music by Leslie Osborne & Simon May

The simple melodic structure of Simon May's theme music made it an instantly hummable hit tune. With lyrics later added by Don Black, and a vocal provided by one of the show's most popular actresses, Anita Dobson, it was

released as a single in the 1980s, reaching No.4 in the UK charts.

Hints & Tips: The rhythm in the first two beats of the right hand in bars 4, 8, 12 and 15, should not be confused with a triplet of crotchets-the two rhythms sound very similar, but are crucially different.

Eine Kleine Nachtmusik Music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Composed in August 1978, in Vienna, this serenade was conceived around two years after the series of six quartets dedicated to Haydn that marked Mozart's mature style in this form. At the time Mozart was already preoccupied

with Don Giovanni as well as finding time to compose some of the finest string quintets ever written.

Hints & Tips: Make sure the notes in the first four bars sound exactly together. It may also be a good idea to practise bars 9 and 10 more thoroughly to get the semiquaver passages even.

SURVIVOR

Eye Of The Tiger Words & Music by Frank Sullivan III & Jim Peterik

This song was written at the behest of Sylvester Stallone by the two main songwriters of the group Survivor. The song was used in the third Rocky film as Rocky's trainer implored him to regain the eye of the

tiger'-his hunger to be world champion.

Hints & Tips: The rhythmic Jpunches' that make up the familiar riff at the beginning and end should be played forcefully, and with a tireless energy!

FORREST GUMP

Feather Theme Music by ALan Silvestri

Composer Alan Silvestri and director Robert Zemeckis have one of the most successful director-composer relationships in the movie industry. Films such as Back To The Future and the Romancing The Stone series are just a

few. Forrest Gump gave Silvestri a chance to write a heavyweight, emotional, large-scale orchestral score.

Hints & Tips: There are lots of syncopated notes in this piece. When a normally weak beat is stressed in a passage of music, we say it is syncopated. In this piece, the syncopation should give a light, airy feel to the music.

KATE NASH

Foundations Words & Music by Kate Nash & Paul Epworth

A graduate of the BRIT School in Croydon, Kate Nash finished off some old songs whilst recovering from a broken foot, uploaded them onto MySpace, and soon found her career taking off. This song stayed at No.2 in the UK singles chart for five consecutive weeks and was the lead single from her 2007 debut album Made Of Bricks.

<

Hints & Tips: Although the L.H. jumps around quite a lot in this piece, you can retain the same hand shape and simply move this up and down the keyboard as required. Practise this until you can judge the distances and

thereby move to the correct positions without looking at your hand.

LOVE ACTUALLY

Glasgow Love Theme Words & Music by Craig Armstrong

Soon after writing his BAFTA-winning score for Baz Luhrman's Romeo and JuLiet, Armstrong embarked on the score for this Richard Curtis romantic comedy. The result in this particular case is a beautiful and atmospheric mood

piece for solo piano.

Hints & Tips: Spend some time practising the right-hand chords in the opening four bars, making sure you use the correct fingering. You will meet this fingering again later in the piece, but used with quavers (eighth notes).

I

<

<

Practise the left-hand chords in bars 5-8, which are also repeated later.

God Bless' The Child Words & Music by Arthur Herzog Jr. & Billie Holiday

Billie Holiday possessed possibly the most distinctive voice in jazz. Her life was always difficult which must have contributed to her emotive and powerfully intense performances. Her two great compositions are this heart-rending

tune and Strange Fruit.

I

Hints & Tips: Try and keep the hands moving smoothly, practising one bar at a time.

HAPPY DAYS

Happy Days Words by Norman Gimbel. Music by Charles Fox

Truett Pratt and Jerry McClain had a 1976 hit with this theme tune, reaching No.5 in the US Billboard Top 40 Chart. The music is characterised by its flamboyant rock 'n' roll style and, together with its upbeat lyrics, it serves

to conjure up the optimism of 1950s America in which the show is set.

THE PIANO

The Heart Asks Pleasure First Music by Michael Nyman

This piece, with its strong Celtic influences, dearly retains the style most associated with its composer, Michael Nyman. Minimalism is used to great effect throughout the score to The Piano to create a work of

surprising warmth and depth.

Hints & Tips: This music begins in 4/8 and moves into 6/8 time. Count two crotchet (quarter note) beats in the two-time section and then two dotted crotchet (dotted quarter note) beats in the six-eight part. Remember that

both these beats are the same speed. Some regular quavers (eighth notes) also appear in the six-eight music.

THE BEATlES

Hey Jude Words & Music by John Lennon & Paul McCartney

Paul was inspired to pen this lyric to console John Lennon's son, Julian, but eventualLy decided to change the name. At the time it was the longest 45rpm single ever released, clocking in at seven minutes 11 seconds!

Hints & Tips: The Left hand gives this piece its pulse so make sure you pLay it rhythmically and that all the notes are held for the full duration. The middle section shouLd be a little stronger and played with a fuller tone.

JAMES BROWN

1 Got You (I Feel Good) Words & Music by James Brown

This song was recorded in 1965 by James Brown, a towering influence on American soul music even now, nearly 50 years after he started his career. The song remains his calling card and was, alongside Papa's Got A Brand New Bag,

his first Top 10 Hit.

<

Hints & Tips: Notice how the riff in the left hand is repeated using different harmonies. This should make it easier to recognise and play.

ARETHA FRANKLIN

I Say A LittLe Prayer Words by Hal David. Music by Burt Bacharach

This Bacharach/David collaboration was a hit for both Dionne Warwick and Aretha Franklin. Hal David felt the tempo was too fast and that, as a result, the song would not be a hit. Luckily however,

the public felt differently and Warwick charted at No.4 in 1967 and, in 1968, Franklin charted at No. 10.

Hints & Tips: Notice how the left hand in bar 5 'imitates' the right hand a bar earlier. Watch out for the time signature changes and wonder at how many there are for such a short piece!

KVLIE MINOGUE

I Should Be So Lucky Words & Music by Mike Stock, Matt Aitken & Pete Waterman

This was one of the biggest hits of the 180s, reaching No.1 in the UK, Japan, Germany, France and Australia, as well as six other countries. It was composed in an hour, and recorded by Kylie in 40 minutes!

Hints & Tips: In the verse, notice how the songwriter is always pushing forwards (and upwards) harmonically. This is to increase the tension before the Irelease' of the chorus. See if you can reflect this in your performance.

GLORIA GAYNOR

I Will Survive Words & Music by Dino Fekaris & Freddie Perren

This song reached No.1 in the US in 1978. Since then, it has often been considered (and used) as an anthem representing female empowerment or 'girl power'. It has been covered by many artists and remains one of disco's

biggest hits.

Hints & Tips: Try to make the 'rubato' section at the beginning as rhythmically free as possible. Then, when you reach the real 'disco' section, try and play with a strong rhythmic feel.

JURASSIC PARK

Jurassic Park Theme Music by John Williams

Being one of the most financially secure composers in history, John Williams had intended to retire by the early 1990s. His output certainly became progressively more sporadic, so this classic Williams score with bold brass,

dramatic strings and choir was a welcome addition to his oeuvre.

Hints & Tips: The music of this piece should be march-like, with the dotted notes played crisply and perfectly in time. Play the left-hand minims (half notes) strongly and confidently to add strength to the bass line. Practise the

closing right-hand chords until you can play them perfectly, to ensure an impressive end to your performance!

SYMPHONY No. 9

Ode To Joy Music by Ludwig van Beethoven

This is the main theme from the last movement of Beethoven's final symphony, the ninth. However it took six years to complete, being written between 1817 and 1823. The premier was given on May 7, 1824 in Vienna by

which time the composer was completely deaf.

Hints & Tips: This theme from the 'Choral' Symphony is best known to many as the EEC anthem. It needs to be played with spirit.

WILLIAM TELL

William Tell Overture Music by Gioacchino Rossini

WilHam Tell is the last opera that Rossini wrote before his early retirement at the age of only 37. It was premiered in Paris on August 3, 1829. The lead tenor part is almost supernaturally difficult and extremely long (the opera,

given complete would last some five hours).

Hints & Tips: Be sure to put your thumb on the fourth notes in the right hand of bars 6 and 14.

LES MISERABLES

On My Own Music by Claude-Michel Schonberg

Original Lyrics by Alain Boublil & Jean-Marc Natel English Lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer,Trevor Nunn & John Caird

The lovestruck Eponine sings of her unrequited love for Marius, the student revolutionary. Despite a warning, Eponine returns to the Barricade, is wounded and dies in Marius' arms.

Hints & Tips: In this piece there are plenty of dotted rhythms and time signature changes to observe. The middle section (bars 10-17) is full of tricky accidentals. Make sure that the semiquavers (sixteenth notes) are equal in

speed and in volume.

BRITNEY SPEARS

Oops! ... I Did It Again Words & Music by Max Martin & Rami

Like ... Baby One More Time before it, the music video for Oops! ... I Did It Again was almost as popular as the song itself. In it Britney shows her maturity by donning a skin tight red catsuit rather than the school uniform many

fans were accustomed to.

Hints & Tips: Watch out for the accidentals and cross-over fingerings in this piece. Also, take a careful look at where the left hand notes fall in relation to the right hand melody-mark it up if it helps you to do so.

STAR TREK (THE MOTION PICTURE)

Theme from Star Trek Music by Jerry Goldsmith

Goldsmith, who died in 2004, was one of Hollywood's most diverse composers. He often made use of 'experimental' effects, but was equally capable of turning out classic Hollywood fare such as this memorable theme from 1979.

Hints & Tips: There are many sets of triplets in this piece. Listen to a recording of the music to help you play these rhythms. Play the bass strongly to add a powerful, urgent feel to the music.

Take The I A' Train Words & Music by Billy Strayhorn

Another hit from Duke Ellington's long-time friend and collaborator, Billy Strayhorn. Ellington said "Billy Strayhorn was my right arm, my left arm, all the eyes in the back of my head, my brainwaves in his head, and his

in mine". This is Strayhorn's most famous composition.

Hints & Tips: Watch out for all the syncopated rhythms-often the second quaver (eighth note) of the bar is accented. The accents that are marked in bars 6 and 24 give a really jazz-like feel-try to bring them out.

FRANK SINATRA

That's Life Words & Music by Dean Kay & Gordon Kelly

Written for Frank Sinatra and first released by him on the 1966 album of the same name, this brash rhythm and blues song was sung by Bono on the score of the 2002 film The Good Thief. Other more recent recordings have been made by Westlife, on their album Allow Us To Be Frank, and by Michael Bolton on Bolton Swings Sinatra.

Hints & Tips: The rhythm of the R.H. melody in this song is a bit tricky so look through the piece before you try playing it and mark in where the dotted crotchet beats lie in each bar with numbers (1, 2, 3, 4).

VANESSA CARLTON

A Thousand Miles Words & Music by Vanessa CarLton

-

Vanessa Carlton describes this song, recorded for her debut album Be Not Nobody, as 'a combination of reality and fantasy. It's about a love that so consumes you that you'd do anything for it: Written about someone whom she

had a crush on, she has admitted that he remained unaware of her unreciprocated feelings for him.

Hints & Tips: The syncopated rhythms are the hardest thing about this piece. Set a metronome to beat the quaver pulse and practise it slowly. A lot of the motifs are repeated, for example, once you have mastered bars 1-4 you

will also be able to play bars 7-8, 11-12 and 25-28.

RIHANNA & JAY-Z

Umbrella Words & Music by Christopher Stewart, Terius Nash, Shawn Carter & Thaddis HarreLL

This single was 2007's biggest seller on the United World Chart, spending seven weeks at No.1 on the USA's Billboard Hot 100 and topping the UK Chart for ten consecutive weeks, the longest reign since Wet Wet Wet

in 1994, and ironically at a time when the country was beset by extreme rainfall and flooding.

Hints & Tips: Although this piece is fairly straightforward, do practise it slowly at first, ensuring that the notes in the R.H. and L.H. sound at exactly the same time when they are supposed to-most of the time!

BLONDIE

The Tide Is High Words & Music by John Holt, Howard Barrett & Tyrone Evans

This song was co-written by John Holt in 1967. On the first recording he sang the lead vocal with his reggae band, The Paragons. It became a minor hit in his native Jamaica, although it was not to becom~ a

well-known song elsewhere until it was covered in 1980 by Blondie.

Hints & Tips: There are lots of quick repeated notes in the bridge section (bars 17-25). For these, it's best to keep your right hand as relaxed as possible so it doesn't tire too quickly.

LOUIS ARMSTRONG

What A Wonderful World Words & Music by George Weiss & Bob Thiele

Whereas the boss of ABC records hated this song, Louis Armstrong loved it so much he agreed to record it for his union fee of $250. Many people now associate jazz music's greatest pioneer with this charming ballad.

Hints & Tips: Notice how the counter-melody (Eb-Db-C) that starts in bar 9 in the right hand is passed to the left hand (Bb at top of chord) in bar 11. You must phrase it so that the listener is only aware of a single, flowing line.

OLIVER!

Who Will Buy? Words & Music by Lionel Bart

Adapted from Charles Dickens' classic novel, Oliver Twist. The composer of the show, Lionel Bart, was never able to repeat the success he enjoyed with Oliver! and by the seventies he was virtually bankrupt.

Hints & Tips: This is quite a quick song, but it's important to practise it slowly first. Notice that the first three phrases of the song start on the second beat. Always play this note strongly, to reinforce this rhythm. Make sure

you know which notes make up the three-flat key signature.

(OLDPLAY

Yellow Words & Music by Guy Berryman, Jon Buckland, Will Champion & Chris Martin

Yellow was the second single to be released from (oldplay's debut album Parachutes and is considered by many to be their breakthrough single. Rumour has it that the song title was inspired by the Yellow Pages!

Hints & Tips: The left hand should be played lightly and more softly than the right hand. However, placing a slight emphasis the first quaver of each bar will avoid the accompaniment sounding monotonous.

ELTON JOHN

Your Song Words & Music by Elton John & Bernie Taupin

Originally released in the USA as the B-side to Take Me To The Pilot, Your Song was preferred by DJs and eventually became the A-side. It went on to reach the Top 10 in both the UK and US giving Elton his breakthrough hit.

Hints & Tips: Try this piece hands separately at first as, once you have a solid left hand as a basis, it will be much easier to sit the right hand over the top. Take time to practise the first two bars slowly, gradually increasing the

speed and eventually joining them onto the rest of the song.
