Pop music site recommendations

[green]

I have students who basically are interested in nothing but playing pop music that they know. I find this very difficult to accommodate, has anyone found sites which have good arrangements of new pop music that they would recommend? Thanks.

I don't know if I would really say the arrangements are all that good but I use Musicnotes.com a lot. I do arrange my own from their basics just for myself quite a bit.

what pop pieces always seem to work well for you?

If i had to choose one pop song which consistently is liked and impresses students and adult students alike, it would be 'Apologize', can find it here https://www.scribd.com/doc/50748558/One-Republic-featuring-Timbaland-Apologize-music-sheet:

I do a cross section of things from New Age music to songs from the series and also the band Secret Garden ( two different entities with similar styles of music and the same name) to old Beatles tunes. I really like pieces that build in intensity but New Age works for me too. I do a few old show songs as well. Last winter I worked on the theme song to Beauty and The Beast to play for my Grand Daughter at Christmas, she was glued to my piano as I played it and her eyes welled up with tears. The Secret Garden songs Nocturne and In our Tears are two that I like. But I don't stick strictly with the score, I fill out the keyboard in places with many of the pop pieces that I do. I really could do them from fake books but it's nice to have a basic arrangement to work from in the beginning.

I get a lot of requests like this from my pupils and have always been dissatisfied with most arrangements I've encountered (particularly ones from official songbooks). Most of the time I transcribe and arrange the songs myself, that way you can tailor the difficulty to the pupil and still get a decent arrangement.

Modern pop is so easy to work out, too, so I tend to train pupils up to transcribe it themselves.

A good website i use to find new pop songs is www.pianozap.com.

There are new songs added daily and you can see which songs people are finding popular.

Looks good thanks, but when I click on a song, it goes to another page with info about the artist, but no sheet music! what's up?

Music Room.com is good as is sheetmusic.co.uk Just be aware of the generic nature of a single standard 'pop' manuscript. I tend to score pop music for my students based on their grade level. Happy to send you a couple if you need a sample.....jb
