Back to Titanic (Songbook - Piano) [Paperback] Review

This sheet music collection is of course from James Cameron's "Titanic."Specifically, these songs are found on the second music CD that was released from that movie, "Back toTitanic."
I bought this book because from that second CD there wasone particularly good piano solo, "The Portrait."However, I didnot find it as enjoyable to play as I thought I would.In the othersongbook from "Titanic" that was released is a piece entitled"Rose."That is very similar to "The Portrait" exceptthat "Rose" is a lot more powerful and compelling."ThePortrait" requires a softer touch that what I prefer in pianomusic.
The other pieces were not as enjoyable as the first"Titanic" songbook (which, by the way, is the best book ofsoundtrack music, and it can easily be found by searching for its ISBN:0793592240).A lot of the pieces in this second book are based on songsrather than the score.
Contents: AN IRISH PARTY IN THIRD CLASS *ALEXANDER'S RAGTIME BAND * THE PORTRAIT * JACK DAWSON'S LUCK * A BUILDINGPANIC * NEARER MY GOD TO THEE * COME JOSEPHINE, IN MY FLYING MACHINE * ASHORE NEVER REACHED * MY HEART WILL GO ON (LOVE THEME FROM TITANIC) *EPILOGUE * THE DEEP AND TIMELESS SEA
The "My Heart Will Go On"song is also in the first "Titanic" songbook.That is apiano/vocal/guitar piece, and I did not find it as enjoyable on the pianoas the score music.The rest of the pieces are piano solos (with vocalmusic included for "Come Josephine").One big plus in my mindfor the book is that the publishers did not waste money on full-colorinserts from the movie.
I recommend the other "Titanic"songbook first, and then this only to those who really like the music fromthe movie.
