Virgil Fox, Rock Star of his Era
My husband is currently transcribing classical music by the great composers, for his electric guitar. He likes the way that Virgil Fox plays, so this is the perfect book to use. He's better at playing The Star-Spangled Banner in Hendrix's style, but at least he can see what the actual notes are supposed to be, if he cares to play them. He bought this more for the Bach and the Mozart compositions. When I was growing up, I played the organ, and took lessons for many years. I think I would have been a better student if I could have listened to Virgil Fox's recordings, to get the passion and the correct phrasing on music that I wasn't familiar with, then studied the sheet music. I can't tell you how it pains me to think of playing songs like Bach's Jesu of My Desire, and not having a clue as to how a professional would play it. They were just notes on a page. I wanted to play like Keith Emerson, but tell me where I could have found the sheet music back in the 60's. Virgil Fox's virtuosity can easily inspire any keyboardist who want to delve into the classics.

Showy
These are showy arrangements of well know pieces. Depending on taste, these may be a hit, or not.I got this for a younger person with a near-zero level of self-consciousness. The pieces attract attention.The child doesn’t take himself too seriously: he plays for fun. These pieces please him

Product as described
Not for beginners, at all. Requires quite a bit of pedal work on an AGO pedal board. Cosmetic small scratches and creases, as described. When I received the book I noticed the new price on the back under the bar code was 14.95. I paid 14.10. I thought that was unfair. Then, I noticed a current new price on this book was 21.95, so, my error.
