Sheet music Requiem - 2

Dear Dieter, I just would like to add the following: Trust your inner guidance (feelings) to be in close harmony and in connection with the Flow of Life itself and you will be able to learn to play Requiem (and any other music of your choice) effortlessly without any strain...It willl come out naturally and organically... I would be very interested to hear the 'result' whenever ready... Warm Blessings! Boni Li-A-Sam

Sheet music Requiem...

Dear Dieter, You are looking for sheet music of Requiem. As I have understood, there is no sheet music for Requiem published. However, may I suggest that you probably could learn the piece without the need of sheet music? I did this myself by just emotionally 'allign' with this wonderful composition internally until my hands where able to play it 'externally'...(please check out the Audio on my website for the 'result' if you wish) I would also like to bring into your attention the version of REQUIEM played by my friend Italian pianist Igor Roma. He is a 'classical' musician and learned the piece just the way I did...By 'feeling first' and then find your own way to translate it into sound at the piano... You can find a sample of his version via www.igorroma.com. I hope -and sincerely trust- that you will succeed in finding your own way to be able to play it! Good luck and blessings to you! Warm musical regards, Boni Li-A-Sam

Re: Sheet Music for Requiem (and other transcriptions)

Thank you for your requests. At this time there is no published sheet music for Requiem. The only authorized publisher of sheet music, music books and transcriptions of Oscar Peterson's compositions and performances is Hal Leonard. You can find the listing of the current publications at their website: http://www.halleonard.com We continue to work with Hal Leonard Publishing in order to make Mr. Peterson's compositions available as sheet music and in books, and we appreciate your enthusiasm and desire to play his music.
