Card Sharks '78 sheet music...

[Bryce L.]

Question for anyone who can help me... as one of my non-game-show hobbies, I occasionally play the piano. I would like to try to learn the theme to the Perry version of Card Sharks. If anyone can help me by providing me with a MIDI copy of the theme (since I have a computer program which can translate the MIDI to standard sheet music), I would be greatly appreciative.

Thank you all.

That may not exist, sadly. I'd be interested in seeing it too, just to fudge with it in GarageBand.

It's not untranscribable. If you've got a good ear, you can write down the notes, though I think it loses something without the drums and brass instruments. I've created eerily accurate arrangements for 17-piece big bands armed with nothing but the original recording and a computer running a decent notation program.

As with any piece of recorded music, there would have to be at least a "lead sheet" somewhere for copyright purposes. I don't know if Score kept any of their actual arrangements the musicians worked from.

Not sure, would Mr. Edd Kalehoff himself probably keep lead sheets of his compositions?

As far as transcribing, I have a "tin ear". I DO have a good program for putting the sheet music on the computer (it's called Sibelius 6, FYI)

If I had to guess, I would assume the main portion of the song (the part heard in the show opening) is either in A or B-flat...

Close.  G minor.
