Practice and performance is made easy thanks to the included audio CD containing complete vocal and piano demonstrations plus piano-only accompaniments to each song.

Novello Choral Pops: Showtunes

‘All I Ask Of You’ is the love song that triggers the Phantom of The Opera’s jealous campaign of retribution in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s legendary musical; Cliff Richard and Sarah Brightman took it for a spin in 1986 and had a hit single. ‘Big Spender’ became even more popular than the 1966 musical from which it came — ‘Sweet Charity’ — and Shirley Bassey did much to popularise it later. Written specifically for Colm Wilkinson, ‘Bring Him Home’ is the emotional song from Act II of Les Misérables while I Have A Dream is a no less emotional Abba number that is included in the record-breaking stage musical Mamma Mia. ‘Last Night Of The World’ is the haunting dance hall song from Miss Saigon that marks the fateful promise made by the US airman to take Kim with him when he leaves Vietnam.

This volume in the Novello Choral Pops collection contains all five of these musical theatre favourites, arranged for SATB choir with piano accompaniment.

Novello Choral Pops: Sixties Hits

The Mamas & The Papas’ hymn to the West Coast state ‘California Dreamin’’ was actually written in chilly New York City by John and Michelle Phillips before they even formed the band that made them famous. Simon & Garfunkel were New York through and through and Simon’s jaunty song about the Queensboro Bridge — aka ‘Feelin’ Groovy’ — uses its local colloquial name. Skeeter Davis, born Mary Frances Penick, was the survivor of a car crash that killed her singing partner Betty Jack Davis. They had enjoyed some success as The Davis Sisters but ‘The End Of The World’ was the biggest hit of Skeeter’s subsequent solo career. ‘In My Room’ saw The Beach Boys moving indoors from all that sun and sand and recording one of their most reflective and lovely songs. Meanwhile the British invasion was threatening the pop status quo in America and ‘Can’t Buy Me Love’, from the film Hard Day’s Night, gave The Beatles yet another number one in the US charts.

Novello Choral Pops: Sixties Hits contains these five decade-defining hits, newly arranged for SATB choir with piano accompaniment.

Tim Bendzko Songbuch

Die noch junge Karriere des Musikers Tim Bendzko ist bisher enorm erfolgreich verlaufen. Im Jahr 2011 wurde sein Ohrwurm „Nur noch kurz die Welt retten“ zum Hit des Jahres, er ging mit Elton John und Joe Cocker auf Tournee und gewann den Bundesvision Song Contest. Mit seinem 2013er Nummer-1-Album „Am seidenen Faden-Unter die Haut“ setzte der mehrfach mit renommierten Musikpreisen ausgezeichnete Berliner seinen Aufstieg fort.

Jetzt gibt es endlich ein Songbuch mit 20 für Piano, Gitarre und Gesang arrangierten Songs. Zusätzlich zu den Noten beinhaltet das Songbuch eine große Auswahl an Bildmaterial und persönliche Kommentare zu den Songs und zu ihrer Spielweise.
