The fifty tunes in this book have been arranged in progressive order, ranging in difficulty from pre Grade 1 to Grade 3. Although the melody line may be played alone, chord symbols are provided to enable guitarists to improvise their own accompaniment. Alternatively, these accompanying chiords may be used by a keyboard or piano player. Top Tunes is a popular series of 50 favourite melodies, all in easy-to-play arrangements that the beginner will soon feel at home with. A glance at the titles in every book will show the broad range of classical favourites, folk songs, children's songs and show songs.
Each book has 50 tunes including some or all of the following:
