Here it is! The book thousands of pianists have been waiting for-
Preston Key’s long anticipated
Simply Beautiful Piano, Volume II. If you played and enjoyed the first volume of
Simply Beautiful Piano, you understand what all the fuss is about!
Preston Key’s arrangements are nothing short of exquisite. His special gift lies in the voicing of the harmony so that simply constructed chords and arrangements, when played by intermediate or earlier grade pianists, sound as if they are being played by a seasoned pro. The notes lie under the hand perfectly. The inner voicings create a beautiful, flowing motion for every piece. The songs he selects are the melodic evergreens you have always wanted to learn. Once you begin to play from this book, you will have to agree that you have never sounded so good!
Customer Comments
“He’s made me love the piano again. Last year, after more than fifty years later, I bought an electronic piano and resumed playing. The first book I bought was "Simply Beautiful Piano" with arrangements by Preston Keys. The man is a genius. My piano teacher, who had been writing jazz arrangements for me, looked at the chords and exclaimed,’Where did he find those voicings?’ I was hooked!” -Shel S., Ridgefield, CT
“I want Simply Beautiful Piano Book 2!! I can't say enough about this book. I want Preston Keys to write more!!… its lush harmonies make me sound so professional, even though I am just an Intermediate Level pianist. I found all the pieces to be just the right level and challenging for me, too.”- Karen of Dallas, TX
“I personally think that this is the best book that you have ever put out. Without exception, all of the arrangements are beautiful, sophisticated and EASY TO PLAY. Unfortunately, this is the only book of arrangements that Preston keys has ever put out by himself. I realize that he did split the arranging duties on another great book, "Simply Elegant Piano," with Noreen Lienhard (who is also a terrific arranger, by the way)…If this book is not the top seller in your catalogue, it should be!" William C. of Longmont,
CO [It is, indeed, our best-seller!]

"The beauty is in the simplicity of the arrangements, that they have beautiful harmony and are enjoyable to the listener.” -Laverne of Canyon Lake, TX
"I ordered this book after seeing an arrangement of Preston Keys in "Sheet Music" Magazine. These arrangements are the type I wanted.
Lush harmonies…and modern arrangements of old standards.” –Anonymous from Illinois
