Background instrumentals for Defying Gravity from Wicked?

Q. Im desperate to find this arrangement of background for this song! Please help! Ok this is kinda a tough list of demands but I really need:
-The same key as the original
-All instruments, not just piano
-A happy ending. No scary minor chord where all the Oz people sing "look at her shes wicked" ugh

This would be soooo perfect if anyone knows where I might find this track! Thank you

A. Try searching the Itunes database, I've done a lot of Wicked covers and I've got most of my instrumentals from there. :) Hope I helped!

Also could you answer my question? Thanks!

what is the loudness war involving pop music?
Q. Joan Serra Spanish researchers investigating pop music from 1955 to 4 decades later;loss in musical diversity

A. Yuu're referring to a study just published this week..

Pop music too loud and all sounds the same, scientists find

Don't worry - it's not just you getting old

Reuters - July 26, 2012

Comforting news for anyone over the age of 35, scientists have worked out that modern pop music really is louder and does all sound the same.

Researchers in Spain used a huge archive known as the Million Song Dataset, which breaks down audio and lyrical content into data that can be crunched, to study pop songs from 1955 to 2010.

A team led by artificial intelligence specialist Joan Serra at the Spanish National Research Council ran music from the last 50 years through some complex algorithms and found that pop songs have become intrinsically louder and more bland in terms of the chords, melodies and types of sound used.

"We found evidence of a progressive homogenisation of the musical discourse," Serra told Reuters. "In particular, we obtained numerical indicators that the diversity of transitions between note combinations - roughly speaking chords plus melodies - has consistently diminished in the last 50 years."

They also found the so-called timbre palette has become poorer. The same note played at the same volume on, say, a piano and a guitar is said to have a different timbre, so the researchers found modern pop has a more limited variety of sounds.

Intrinsic loudness is the volume baked into a song when it is recorded, which can make it sound louder than others even at the same volume setting on an amplifier.

The music industry has long been accused of ramping up the volume at which songs are recorded in a 'loudness war' but Serra says this is the first time it has been properly measured using a large database.

The study, which appears in the journal Scientific Reports, offers a handy recipe for musicians in a creative drought.

Old tunes re-recorded with increased loudness, simpler chord progressions and different instruments could sound new and fashionable. The Rolling Stones in their 50th anniversary year should take note.

What is Jazz standard?
Q. There is a jazz solo piano book called 40 most popular pieces JAZZ STANDARD
What is Jazz Standard?
Thanks!

A. A jazz standard is basically a very popular jazz song, generally consisting of only a head (main melody) and chord changes that go along with it.

Jazz standards are often played and recorded by many jazz groups, both professional and amateur.

Jazz standards are basically the standard vocabulary of jazz musicians. If you want to play with experienced jazz musicians they might expect you to know some more popular jazz standards and how to solo over them.

Check out this page on "What is a jazz standard?" This site also has a great database on all of the jazz standards: http://www.jazzstandards.com/overview.htm#Questions_and_Answers
