Remembering the great Maurizio Pollini

His passing was announced by Milan’s La Scala opera house on March 23. Read more >>

finding background music for a digital sequence
on: March 15, 2004, 10:39:34 PM
I am looking for a website/source to provide discs for background music for piano solos.  If accompanying sheet music was available, I would be interested in that too.  I have a Yamaha DSR 1 --a digital sequence recorder and am in need of nice backups to use for standard piano pieces.

Thank you in advance,

Joann

I'm not sure if this is exactly what your talking about but try here:https://www.musicminusone.com/Main/Main.html

These are cds with orchestral or ensemble accompaniment for classical and jazz pieces.  They come with the score too.

Thanks so much for the info. It is sure a great source.  It will take me a while to decide what will work for me.  Do you have any of these?  Which ones?  Are they fun?  Are they hard?  

I do have a Yamaha DSR 1 it works with a floppy disc.  I like it because I can slow the disc down to learn.  Who knows maybe these would be available for the DSR too.  

I think I will get something from Music One too.  I just have to decide.
