Does sheet music exist?

Post by nathantheguitarist » Thu Jan 04, 2007 2:43 am

Has Toei (or whoever does the music of the series, please forgive my lack of info) ever released any books of sheet music for the series?

And if so, where can I buy them? If there's anywhere besides eay that is.

Me being a guitar player has always sparked my interest of this, and I know people say, "figure it out by ear," but it's not always accurate that way, especially when you want to transcribe guitar parts, for instruments that aren't guitar :lol:

I play piano and I can play the Dragonball theme. I made sheet music for it but I reformated my PC and I lost it >.> lol

What the hell? :roll:

nathanthequitarist, if you're good at transcribing existing sheet music inito something that is playable by guitar, I would suggest you to use some music composition software such as NoteWorthy Composer. Use the program to open up the midi files you download and it would display the notes.

I use Guitar Pro 5, cause I'm a cheap ass who uses mostly tabs :P

But I have no idea where to find Dragonball midis :?

And also, usually midi's have a ridiculous number of intrument tracks, so importing an midi usually results in those notes being spread across three channels when it's really one intrument.

This is why a book would just kick fucking ass. :lol:

Hmm.. :shock:

This leads me to believe there IS a book. It may be only for simplistic piano, but wth, it's out there, and that's what matters. 8)

Thank you Kula :D

Wow, thats amazing. I want that book of sheet music. :D I've trying play stuff by year.

Like, I can play the beginning of CHA LA, the beginning of Hikari No Willpower, and...some Bruce Faulconer stuff. But having sheet music would help greatly.

Sorry for necro-posting, but I was interested in this too, and happened to find this thread. I play the trumpet, though. Now, sometimes Piano music and other music sheets can go well with trumpet, if the sheets are made for one instrument.

Anyway, I'm going to try this Cha-la-head-cha-la piece, and can anyone try to find some Trumpet sheet music?(I know these can be a little harder) And try to get the original Dragonball theme, too...or just any music you can dig up.

Please and Thanks! :D
