Picking up where volume one of the series left off, this tutorial professes to teach rhythm piano using a method that circumvents the need to read music notation. With this fun, effective, and quick way to begin learning the piano, Dan Huckabee has avoided many of the pitfalls that often afflict neophyte musicians, namely, getting bogged down with theory and never actually playing. Instead, Huckabee hopes to help people learn songs by ear, presenting the material in the most logical and easily-assimilated way. Volume 2 introduces new chords, boogie woogie blues stylings, songs with minor chords, new keys and rhythm patterns, and more advanced theory. The song list includes:
Cuckoo Bird,
Duke of Earl,
Heart & Soul,
Dream,
This Boy,
Stay a Little Longer,
Jingle Bells,
House of the Rising Sun,
My Bonnie,
and
Sloop John B.

The incredible life of Argentinean tango composer Astor Piazzolla is explicitly detailed in this absorbing documentary. Piazzolla enlivened the genre by combining his use of a little-known instrument called the bandoneon with an ear for esoteric sounds, leading to him radically altering the traditional template on which tango is based. The footage included here is culled from various archive sources, and spans 30 years of vintage performance from Piazzolla. Illustrating his diverse appeal to a number of musicians from varying backgrounds, artists such as the Kronos Quartet, Yo-Yo Ma, and Gary Burton pay tribute to Piazzolla throughout.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Anamorphic Widescreen - 16:9Audio: Dolby Digital 2.0- (unspecified), Natural sound/Music Subtitles - English, French, Spanish, German - OptionalAdditional Release Material: Bonus Feature: Piazolla: The Man and His Music Alternate Audio Track - 1.
