Hi everyone,
In todays post I'm going to talk about Hal Leonard's Play a Long series. This series of books from Hal Leonard has been around for an extremely long time.
The 'Play a Long' series from Hal Leonard has become a classic series of books in their own right, as these books are ideal for anyone whose just starting out on their musical journey and are looking to have a bit of fun along the way by learning pieces from their favourite musicals, films and genres.
I love the variety that this series provides for people who are new to learning a musical instrument. It covers such a wide variety of different musical genres that I actually can't list them all. I also think there's an area within the 'Play a Long' series that features music from well known composers such as JS Bach and Chopin.
The 'Play a Long' series is also printed in a slightly larger print compared to the usual size of sheet music; and this is because this series is aimed at beginner players/ learners who aren't familiar with reading from the stave. So, the stave and music has been made slightly larger to accommodate this to make it easier for the player to learn and understand reading music, while having fun at the same time.
Also, this series used to feature a CD which held the backing tracks, but that has now been moved to a digital download through the Hal Leonard website.
The 'Play a Long' series is also available across a variety of musical instruments.
