Hi,
Any ideas where we could find keyboards score, the ones that are played by the keyboarder, not a mix of vocals and guitar/keys usually presented in the paid websites like sheet music plus or musicnotes? Which are mainly an arrangement for playin the song alone, not in a band....
Just let me know
Sincerely

Hi,
I what case do you need that ?

Just because I play in a band and don't need to cover with my keys the voice and/or other instruments....It's faster to learn and practice the song this way....

Depends on whose music you are looking to play - you are correct, a lot of it is arranged for piano/keys/vocal. That being said there are some books around like one I have of Steely Dan for example, where the keyboard parts are transcribed quite well - but I think you will find that is the exception not the norm.

If I am using sheet music, for me at least it is just a starting point - personally I learn a lot of things by ear to get the nuances right.

Hi,
Ok quai, ( ) I like those sheets too, with key parts, and happened to learn voicing from them, sometimes it's a "wow yes!" "he did it that way ..." interesting efficient way to learn indeed.
I found a lot of books with complete, separated instruments on scribd. Not sure if scribd is legal about this though.
If you know what you're looking for then find the score editor and buy the score book from him.
I agree it would be nice to have dedicated sheets for keys and a site providing that, haven't found it, I do scribd search and a few books.

Accurate transcriptions of keyboard parts do exist, but they are EXTREMELY thin on the ground, and there's no unified source for them. Don't know exactly what music you're looking for, but it's likely that accurate transcriptions simply don't exist for the vast majority of it.

Youtube is probably your best bet for "How to's" but you have to trawl through a lot of them and be halfway there in deciding whether the video knows what it's talking about. You may have to get a good version by taking the accurate bits of a number of different videos.

Yes, thanks, that's what I was thinking....
I will try scribe for sure

Have you seen Jellynote?, maybe not what you are primarily looking for, but I have found some interesting keyboard parts there. https://www.jellynote.com/en/

If you're able to understand a bit of german, you can search on http://klaviernoten-kostenlos.net for many different songs and download sheet music there .

Ultimate Guitar provides basic chord charts, many of them accurate.
