The Big Black Piano Songbook

The Big Black Piano Songbook is a collection of the most well-known, best-loved music standards that are essential to any pianist's repertoire.


Divided into seven distinct sections – Celebration, Christmas, Classical, Film & TV, Jazz, Blues & Ragtime, Pop Hits and Weddings – this collection will ensure you never get caught out with a music request again. Need a classical piece or a famous film theme to ‘wow’ someone with? Or perhaps the mood calls for laid-back jazz? Or maybe you simply need to rouse everyone into a group sing-along of Auld Lang Syne or Happy Birthday To You? Whatever you need, this book has you covered.
