American Idol Presents: Ballads and Standards, Volume 1

Sing along with your favorite American Idol hits! Each songbook provides the lyrics, music notation, and chords to 8 great hits, along with lyrics-only pages. The contents of each book were taken from actual songs that were performed on the shows of seasons 1 through 5. Each of the 5 books comes with a pull-out color centerfold of exclusive behind-the-scenes photos of the contestants. There is also a pull-out lyric booklet so the singer can sing-along with the CD or the pianist. There are two versions of every song on the CD: a full-performance track with an amazing sound-alike recording, and a professional instrumental accompaniment track so you can sing along. When you use the CD in your Mac or Windows-based computer, the TNT (Tone 'N' Tempo) Changer lets you easily change the key and tempo to individualize the playback for just your voice and style.
