Story behind the song

I tried my best to arrange Harold Faltermeyer's Axel F theme for piano as faithfully as possible (from Beverly Hills Cop, 1984). The many arrangements I found on the net didn't really appeal to me, as there were always details missing. So I arranged it myself from scratch. For example the missing snare on 2 and 4 I compensated with strong accents and voicings in the right hand. Hopefully you'll enjoy!

If you want to play it yourself: the sheet music has been published by Hal Leonard. I had no influence on the price; that is a given. Just to avoid any misunderstandings: I earn practically nothing from it... About 40 cents per copy sold (around 5 percent profit share).
