It's Snowing on my Piano - Bugge Wesseltoft

Description
Arranged for solo Piano, this songbook contains all 12 songs from the jazz fusion Christmas album It's Snowing On My Piano by Norwegian jazz musician Bugge Wesseltoft.

The It's Snowing On My Piano sheet music songbook is the perfect collection for the pianist who is tired of playing the same old Christmas classics, and wants to impress and excite listeners with the criminally under-appreciated fusion of jazz and Christmas. Recorded in 1997, the album was Wesseltoft's first for solo Piano, and included jazz updates of old favourites like O Little Town Of Bethlehem and What Child Is This (Greensleeves), as well as compositions like the opening track It's Snowing On My Piano.

Jazz aficionados and Christmas-lovers alike will adore this album, being a mix of musically fascinating techniques and style, as well as those unmistakeably beautiful Christmas melodies played to perfection. With this songbook, you will be able to play all of these brilliant tracks exactly as they were composed by Wesseltoft. Your listeners will be interested to hear you play the familiar tunes, before being entranced by the contemporary flourishes and nuances that have been sprinkled throughout. The title track is especially lovely: a relaxing and subtly melodic piece that communicates the softness and delicacy of what we all hope for - falling snow.

Bugge Wesseltoft has been acclaimed since having his first big impact on jazz at the outset of the 1990s. Not being confined by any rigid concepts of genre has meant he has consistently been able to innovate, and therefore inspire audiences. From jazz to electronica to hip-hop, the It's Snowing On My Piano sheet music is your chance to own and learn the festive offering from an award-winning composer.
