Main Title Theme arranged

Alright guys, here it is, my work put forth for you guys!! . . . and the sake that I wanted to have a solo version of this piece to actually see with my eyes. This is a working, very possible but very difficult piano solo arrangement of the “Main Title Theme” from Ghostbusters I. I wrote it on Finale 2005 and it took me all together about 2 1/2 hours to finish it over the course of three days, one day I didn’t work any on it 'cause I was too busy :slight_smile: I tried putting as much of the original orchestrational kinks in there, but a pianist can only play so much. I also tried to capture the mood of certain parts by translating them pianistically, another words, a note can not be held out at full volume for more than a half second or so, after the inital strike, so I had to do some tricks to keep the sound going, you’ll hear it towards the end. I also posted the MP3 if anyone wants to compare and hear what I did with it . Again, if anyone plays the piano and wants a PDF copy of the sheet music, let me know, I will post it too :slight_smile: Later guys, let me know what you think!!

Nice.

I got out my chanter and started trying to work out the theme.

Then I got out my accordion.

I need more practice.

Chanter? What’s that? And accordian..nice…if you read music i’ll send you the sheets so you don’t have to spend time like I did trying to figure out the weird chordal progression in this piece..wierd yet so incredibly attractive… I remember even as a little boy thinking how cool that theme was from the movie!! :slight_smile:

Greatly appreciated, putting the piano rendition of the Main Theme up for download :slight_smile:

I thought i’d mix my musical musical skills with my passion for the Ghostbusters and let you guys enjoy it as much as I have. I will soon have arrangements some of the other themes, specifically the MAIN theme, Ray Parker Jr.'s Ghostbusters. I think that one will be fun, but difficult, as many things will have to be turned into “pianistical”, but we’ll see what comes out :slight_smile: Later guys, thanks for the support!

I just threw the midi into my music program and applied lots and lots of instruments, it sounded awesome.

Nice!! I love doing that, it’s sweet how it works out…i’m about to turn the finale file into a PDF and i’ll post on here for you music people out there :slight_smile: Later guys!

You should put the partitions up online.

Alright, for those musicians, well, pianists, out there who want a sheet music copy of my transcription of the piece, here it is in PDF format. Or if you just want to see what the music to that piece, in solo piano version, looks like, have a peek, it’s awesome :slight_smile: Later guys, enjoy!
