Hey lovelies,

This is a question probably asked quite often but forgive me if I'm repeating history because I'm rather new to this site, and prog music in general, so this is only a question I thought about asking quite recently...Genesis keyboard music, be it in book or sheet-music form...do any of you know how I can get my hands on it?

The problem is I live in the annoyingly artistically-desolate little country of New Zealand, at the other end of the world from most of you I'm guessing, so the prospect of getting my hands on Genesis sheet-music *at all* is probably impossible. Still- I'm sure some of you fanastic people could help me out...please? 

Really it's just Anyway and Firth of Fifth I'm trying to get but, when I think about it, ANY Peter Gabriel- era Genesis would do!!

Thanks in advance to the people who can help me with my pathetic cry

Funny, I asked myself today the exact same question about Firth Of Fifth. I mastered it to a certain extent on the piano, but I don't play it 100% correct, and there are some difficult and unexplored passages for me. So that's my question too.

New Zealand is far from me, but I always understood that it's a beautiful country. One of my brothers once thought about emigrating to NZ. He emigrated to Argentina and later Venezuela instead  . I'm from Holland and I emigrated to ... Belgium, which is not so far from home. I love this country, though!

Heh- I suppose it is a beautiful country, some parts of it anyway. Going on tramps and taking time out in the bush is a good thing to do, but when it comes to the Arts and Intelligent thinking, this country is almost a wasteland. There's a bunch of Rugby players and punk bands and....and that's about it . Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating a tad- there are a few damn good bands from here too, but not many. I DO love this country but...I wouldn't recommend you move here unless you retire to the country, lol.

Take my congrats for figuring out Firth of Fifth!!  You're a legend!!

I believe Tony Banks never played the intro to "Firth of fifth" live (the "Seconds out" version is an example), because it was just too difficult!

This is one of the things on my list of things to do, like Moogtron III I play "a version" of it on the piano, but never worked it properly out all the way through to the vocals. However I like a challenge, so I'll have a go at it & if successful perhaps post you a midi file? (assuming I can work out how to do that!). Can't promise of course but will try. Do others agree that it starts in Bb?...
