Perfect arrangement

This version captures Richard Carpenters classic arrangement with great faithfulness. In particular, the transitions between sections are spot on. You could play along with the recording and find it a perfect match. This is an adaptation, not simply a reproduction of the piano part, so there are places where the piano also doubles the vocal or echoes orchestral parts. Highly recommended.

To my surprise, a young piano student requested this "old school" song. It has a rhythmic country style in the right hand which was just the right level of challenge for him to learn.
