Displaying all reviews (9)This particular arrangement of Bridge Over Troubled Water is the closest I have seen to the authentic transcription of the original recording. If you love this song, as I do, and enjoy singing along while you play, I highly encourage you to get this arrangement! The arrangement is designed to sing along, however it is so "full" that it will sound great even without singing! Enjoy!
JOHN_MIRABELLA
This chart is really accurate to the original Simon & Garfunkel recording.

Sometimes students need to know the historical reasons behind the composition of some songs to be able to vocalize them properly. I have them investigate the late 60s to see why this was such an important song. This song does just that for the student and they "get it" on why the song is timeless.
BobKacz
Unfortunately, I have found that it is always necessary to check for errors in the transpositions supplied by Musicnotes. They are not of a professional standard. In this case there were four incorrect notes in the 4th measure from the end.
Jonathan_Burnell
Note for note from the record Simon & Garfunkel track!
Luke_McGinnis
No one can sing this better than Art Garfunkel, so put on the song a play along. This is so close to the original arrangement, only the ending is slightly off. The key is dead on, and the baseline is basically a walking baseline so I think even a beginner might want to give this a try. You have to add the grace notes to get the real effect. Might be the most beautiful song ever written! A must learn for ever pianist.
Walter_Hagelstein
I am new to music reading so this is difficult for me to learn but it sounds right.
David_Moorehead
As I gain familiarity with it, it sounds smoother. Nicely done!
