Product Description:
This coffee-table quality songbook is a celebration of the art of Charles Schulz and the music of Vince Guaraldi. Within its stunning full-color, high-gloss pages are: an introduction by veteran music journalist Hank Bordowitz, which provides background on how the Schulz/Mendelson/Guaraldi collaboration came to be, and reflections from fellow musicians influenced by Guaraldi's music; and piano solo arrangements of 30 terrific tunes, each featuring a Peanuts illustration by Schulz. The songs include: Baseball Theme * Blue Charlie Brown * The Christmas Song * Christmas Time Is Here * Freda (With the Naturally Curly Hair) * Happiness Theme * He's Your Dog, Charlie Brown * Linus and Lucy * Oh, Good Grief * The Pebble Beach Theme * Peppermint Patty * Red Baron * Schroeder * Skating * You're in Love, Charlie Brown * and more. This book will be an absolute treasure for any Peanuts or jazz fan!!

Second, his Peanuts work is one of the main gateways to jazz for today's young minds. I don't know where the music would be today without the fans he introduced to it.
Third, Fantasy Records, who release his CDs, does an abysmal job in preserving the Charlie Brown musical legacy. Each and every CD they release is a slap-dash affair and dishonors ... Read More

This book is great in three ways: First, the music itself is first rate. The arrangements in the book are the real thing and are quite a bit more difficult than the "easy" piano versions. Second, there are great-looking comics on most every page, which makes it a joy just to look at. Lastly, there is a lengthy history of Peanuts and how Vince became involved with it.
The only aspect keeping this book from a 5 rating is the binding. The book wouldn't lay flat on the piano, which made it practically ... Read More
