Accurate....
Almost identical to how I hoped to play this song; close to perfection when it comes to the altogether sound of the piece when accomplished.

Good Piece
I was able to play it (mostly) even after not playing my keyboards for over 5 years. But adding vocals + piano makes it a LOT more difficult!

Bless the Broken Road
What's not to like. This music can be used in almost any situation. Happy, sad, or otherwise. I say this because it is very easy to transpose,and make variances to the original musical score, and the tempo in which it is written, My cousin Denise Marek, is a motivational speaker, and often gets her message across with music playing in the background. This tune was brought to my attention simply because she heard it and thought it to be very beautiful. I concur. Denise is a world reknowned "Tony Robbins" type who specializes in helping people get the most out of what they are. Rascal Flatts brings out feelings sometimes you never knew were a part of you.

BLESS THE BROKEN ROAD
I'm not a country music fan so it's hard for me to assess a style I don't particularly care for. I purchased to play for an upcoming wedding and am told by those who know the song well that it is a very good likeness to the Rascal Flatts' recording.

nice music
I liked the process and easiness of finding this music. I'm glad that you have music for the piano for Rascal Flatts because they are good for weddings. The booklet format was very nice.

Beautiful song but too easy of an arrangement
I love this song, and this arrangement is perfect if you are looking for a fast song to learn and have a performer sing along with for a concert or special event. However, the arrangement was a bit too easy for my taste, and is definitely not one you will struggle with learning and/or memorizing.

Melody line in piano accompaniment
This is a good version of this song if you want to play the melody while accompanying. But beware if you are unable to transpose since it goes as high as G. A 'prettier' piano part (and lower) is available in the book Contemporary Wedding Favorites.

My favorite song!
I was driving home from work one day and this song came on the radio. It made me cry. From then on it has been my favorite. I am so excited to have the music so I can play it (and sing along) at home!

I love Rascal Flatts, so liking this song is a given, but you should definatly learn to play this! Bless the Broken Road is right up there with 100 Years and How to Save a Life!

Beautiful Song for Broken Road
I love the song and it was such a lovely accompaniment for the beautiful words. I am not an accomplished pianist and I like getting arrangements that I can play with not too much difficulty.

Bless The Music
This song is wonderful and the words mean so much. It's a beautiful song and I highly recomend it. The instrumentals are somewhat easy to play but get a little harder further into the song but all it takes is practice. RASCAL FLATTS RULE!

Good for decent players
This is not helpful for a female voice. It's too high if you do it as written and too low if you do it down the octave. We transposed the piece down a fourth. The score is good though.

Disappointing arrangement
The melody did not stay true to the recorded song. The interludes were too short and did not compare to the song. The ending should have had a lot more of a ritard built into the performance CD.

Bless the Broken Road
I have been playing for 5 years and I thought because I know this song by heart because I listen to Rascal Flatts a lot it seemd to help with the rythems in it so if you haven't heard this song before, prior to buying this I would listen to it first. This is a Beautiful song and i play it almost everyday. I recommend this song it is very good.

This is very good quality music. Not watered down, sounds great. Some rythams are tricky but if you know the song in goes really smoothly. Great buy.

Great Song!
This song is really amazing. If you love the orginal, this sounds exactly like it on piano. I took me about 2 weeks to play through it, even though it is not smooth yet. I have taken lessons for 5 years and been playing for 9. I would not recommend this to begininers. Although, if you are a begininer, there are many songs taht offer 'Big Note'. Those have worked quite well for my friends who have just begun piano.

One of the Best
I loved the song to start with, but once you get the sheet music, you love it even more! I didn't plan for it to sound like the original song, but, man, does it! It's one of my favorite piano arrangements ever! It sounds almost exactly like the original... A few of the chords are a little hard in some places, and I can't play all of them, even though I've been playing for 5-6 years.... It's a little hard when you start it, but once you've played it a few times, it gets pretty easy..... it's really great!
