The Beatles Complete (001)

C'est la deuxième fois que j'achète ce volume. Il est merveilleux!

affidabile

My husband bought me a keyboard and my first music purchase was this Beatles collection, Volumes 1 and 2. I am so glad I purchased this! Together, the set contains EVERY Beatles song (at least, I have not noticed any missing), even "I've Just Seen a Face," one of my favorite songs that no one has ever heard of. The music in this collection really ranges in difficulty in terms of notes, keys, etc. I was able to sit down and attempt some of the songs right away, but others will take a long time before I can play them as I am at an intermediate level now. Most of the songs are written to include the melody in the piano part so you can play them without a vocalist. All songs have all the lyrics written throughout, sometimes with repeats/codas, but the lyrics are incorporated into the piano part with 2 staves only. The compositions may not be 100% accurate to the recordings, but all that I've tried are quite close. Overall, I'm very pleased with this purchase.The one downside is that each volume is several hundred pages, making it really cumbersome to use on a piano music stand. I am currently using a binder clip to hold it open and upright, but that makes turning pages difficult. At some point, I may have the books taken apart and bound with a spiral wire binding for ease of use.

Amazonから直接手に入ったのはvol.2の方でAmazonの付けたタイトルがComplete Beatlesになっています。vol.1の方は日本になかったので取り寄せとなりました。vol.1ののAmazonでのタイトルがThe Beatles Completeとなっていますが、本のタイトルはどちらもThe Complete Beatles となっていて同じシリーズです。これは原題通りのほうが良いでしょう。vol.2の方に書きましたが、vol.1とvol.2でほぼ全曲入っています。vol.1とvol.2は曲名がA～I とI～Zで分かれています。残念ながらRock and Roll Music は入っていません。（これはカバー曲ですがビートルズのアレンジはいい。）同じカバー曲でもMr.Moonlightは入ってます。なんでだろう？

If you are a Beatles fan and want ALL of their tunes in music then get this, Volume 1 has all their tunes from A to I.Oh, its bound well and printed on good paper. Guitar tabs are included.
