Yamaha Presents New "You Are The Artist" Titles
BUENA PARK, CA (September 30, 2005) — Yamaha Corporation of America, Piano Division and Software Department, today announced several new additions to its popular “You Are the Artist” series, which lets players at a variety of skill levels play the music of their favorite stars. Each title features sheet music and a diskette of MIDI files playable on all Yamaha XG-compatible instruments, including the Clavinova CVP Series and Disklavier. To play a title in the series, users simply insert the diskette into the appropriate drive and then follow the lights on a Clavinova digital piano, or the wiggling keys on a Disklavier, and the full musical arrangements follow users at their own pace.
The new book/diskette packs include the soundtrack of the motion picture Chicago and the CD release All About Love, by Christian Artist Steven Curtis Chapman. The newest singles to join the roster include “I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow” (featured in the motion picture “O Brother, Where Are Thou?), “Fur Elise” and the Christmas classic “Do You Hear What I Hear?” “Solitaire,” recorded by Clay Aiken, rounds out the new offerings.
These new titles join recent releases such as “Don’t Know Why” (Norah Jones), “Through the Years” (Kenny Rogers), “Take My Breath Away” (Top Gun soundtrack), “Tears in Heaven” (Eric Clapton), “What a Wonderful World” (Louis Armstrong), “Memory” (Cats) and the theme to the motion picture Forrest Gump. Recent Beatles releases include “And I Love Her,” “In My Life,” “Imagine” and “Hey Jude.”
“With each new ‘You Are the Artist’ release, Clavinova owners can enjoy an increasingly diverse roster of musical artists and genres,” says Jim Levesque, Electronic Keyboard Marketing Manager. “This interactive series enables users to play along with complete instrumental backgrounds, making it ideal for either entertainment or as an educational supplement.”
Additional singles in the roster include popular favorites in a variety of styles. Current Broadway titles include “All That Jazz” and “All I Ask of You.” Disney titles include “Beauty and the Beast” and “Can You Feel the Love Tonight.” The series’ pop collection features “Every Breath You Take,” “Yesterday” and Can’t Help Falling In Love,” while “Ave Maria,” “Canon in D,” “O Holy Night” and “Moonlight Sonata” round out the series’ classical offerings.
