Looking for Yann Tiersen sheet music

Good morning,

Apologies if this has been requested before. I am looking for all Yann Tiersen (Amelie) sheet music I can get my hands on; not sure where to find it. Main things I'm looking for are La Valse d'Amelie, L'autre Valse d'Amelie, The Drowned Girl / La Noyee, Le Moulin (thinking I could duet with myself on piano; potentially Dispute as well), Le decouverte (I think it would sound nice on the accordion), and Le banquet.

I guess I don't really NEED the sheet music... I could figure them out on my own. Though it's really helpful to have and incentivizes me to actually write down fingering (it's not intuitive yet ig. passages with thirds)

I'm a relatively new to the accordion and still figuring out what styles I like to play. So far, I'm really digging his work. Please feel free to recommend anything similar that you think might be fun :)

Sammy
 
saundersbp I might PM you about the same topic in that case if that is alright with you :)

I know that Don Quattrochi has one of his songs, but not others as far as I know, but there are a lot of other songs to choose from, and MuseScore has some user submitted ones that are very hit and miss.

In terms of music with a similar feel, I think Jenny Conlee (accordionist for the Decemberists) hits a lot of the same vibes for me, and she sells sheet music from both of her albums (Tides and French Kayaking Music) on her bandcamp page. Both albums include both accordion and piano works.
 
Sammy,

try these links, the first one is an accordion arrangement, although, quite short:


the other one is a piano arrangement book.



It doesn't have fingerings but it could help you out. There was a site where most of his most well know pieces were shared for free, and with fingering included, but I just can't find it now.
 
There's loads of scores on the web in PDF format.
I find one I like and transcribe it to Musescore.


Try googling for "yann tiersen accordion site:pdfcoffee.com"

edit
that link is "site : pdfcoffee.com" without the spaces.
