Bittersweet Symphony

This gorgeous (but repetitive, like a classic blues song) melody/song is based on a chord progression originally composed by Mick Jagger & Keith Richards (and the Verve songwriters rightly gave co-writing credit for this song to Jagger & Richards); as far as I can tell, this sheet music is 100% accurate to the original song. The song is relatively slow, with plenty of sustain and space between the notes, which gives the song a beautiful, meditative, ethereal ambiance.

Good overall!

Taking the piece as a whole, accuracy included, i felt this piece does justice to the original. only other thing i could have wanted was a bit more action in the left hand. but the piece sounds good as is and wouldnt hesitate to buy it again!

Great Biggner Piece

If you are getting back into piano, or looking for an easy song to learn then this arrangement is for you. After not having touched a piano in almost ten years, i was able to learn this within a week.
