Josh Rouse - nice easy listening music

I happened to hear the interview on NPR this morning about Josh Rouse's upcoming new album release on March 21, Subtitulo. I've never heard of him before, but I immediately loved his music. His voice and style remind me of a few other artists (maybe Paul Simon?). Listen to his entire new album online for free. His life story is interesting too. Enjoy!

Purchase and Download Sheet Music

When I'm looking for sheet music, I always go to www.sunhawk.com first. Sunhawk allows you to purchase and download the sheet music. Lookup the songtitle on their site. Follow the purchase instructions and the Sunhawk Viewer software will be activated, once installed. From the Sunhawk Viewer software, you can listen to the first page of the sheet music (using your PC's soundcard) to evaluate whether you like the arrangement. Then, click purchase. Print it and you're ready to play. Instant gratification!  Put money in your account in advance (like $25) and get a discount. Copyrights are protected in that you can only print it once.
