At My Most Beautiful (Vocals with professional yet easy piano accompaniment part )-R.E.M.

This beautiful yet easy-to-play arrangement captures all essential elements of the accompaniment part for the song "At My Most Beautiful" including the left-hand solo in the introduction. When the melody is left out from the piano part, it gives more independence for the accompanist to play full accompaniment patterns. It also makes the song rather easy to accompany when the soloist is taking care of the melody. All the piano voicings and bass lines are as originally played in this R.E.M song. The arrangement is also in the original key (in F major) which means you can practice with the original recording. There are only a few little more complicated bars including two parts in one hand, like bar 6 in B section. If you have studied the book Keyboard Accompaniment and Improvisation, you are familiar with this technique combining melody and chords in one hand. Otherwise the accompaniment is rather easy and suitable for many pianists, more and less experienced. This is also a good example of so called rock-beat accompaniment patterns with its variations for piano lessons and teachers.

Enjoy learning this great song!
