Wildest Dreams (Taylor Swift) - Late Elementary

A late elementary piano arrangement of Taylor Swift's 'Wildest Dreams', perfect for piano students who are eager to play something from their favorite popular artist. This also offers practice in counting 2 beat triplets, and syncopation, but the familiarity of the melody will make learning a couple higher level rhythms more fun!

In Summer (Frozen) - Elementary

An arrangement for Primer to Elementary piano solo. The melody is shared between the hands so beginners will not have to worry about moving around the keyboard as much. This fun piece is a good introduction to both triplets and a swing beat for beginning pianists - and they'll be learning these rhythmic skills with a piece of music they already know and love.

Do You Want to Build a Snowman (Frozen) - Elementary

This sweet melody is another popular one from Disney's movie Frozen. This sheet music has the option to play both hands an octave higher throughout the piece (which is how I've recorded it in the video below). It compliments the simple sweetness of this melody beautifully.

This arrangement is suitable for an elementary level pianist.

Let it Go (from Frozen) - Elementary & Intermediate Versions

One of the most popular Disney songs for the current generation! I have two arrangements of this piece for Late Elementary to Early Intermediate pianists. The only difference is the final chorus of the Early Intermediate version offers a chance to practice using repeated eighth notes in the bass to build a feeling of momentum and power. This does require some extra coordination and awareness of both tempo and rhythm, so if that seems a bit too much for your young pianist, the Late Elementary version is just as lovely and uses a simpler blocked chord in the bass.

Wide Awake (Katy Perry) - Elementary

An easy piano arrangement suited for a late elementary or early intermediate pianist. Quick changes between themes will provide practice in anticipating changes in the music, and the optional pedal will allow intermediate students to practice connected pedaling and achieve a more sophisticated sound.

Jingle Bell Rock - Late Beginner

Jingle Bell Rock is arranged here for Late Beginning piano solo. This is a fun piece to play arranged around Middle C with a little bit of movement to other positions where it's needed. This selection also presents some areas for beginners to grow their rhythm and coordination, as the melody passes back and forth between the right and left hands. Once mastered, it's an upbeat piece that works great for a holiday concert or a family gathering. The sheet music file even comes with a lyric sheet in case of a spontaneous singalong!

Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer - Beginner

Rudolph is arranged here in Middle C position, perfect for beginning pianists. There are a few times when the hands play together to make a chord at the end of a phrase, and this adds just a little extra shine to this holiday favorite while keeping it simple enough for first year pianists. Because it is such a familiar melody, any rhythms that might be trickier to read can be learned by rote or ear.

I have arranged this piece at 2 levels. This is the one for primer/beginning pianists. If you're looking for something a little more advanced, try this early intermediate arrangement.

Million Dreams (from The Greatest Showman) - Elementary

A Million Dreams, arranged here for late beginning piano, offers young musicians the chance to play a solo that is familiar and sure to inspire. It will also stretch beginning pianists to play expressively and carry the melody between two hands. The use of the pedal provides an optional extra layer for later beginners.

Africa (Toto) - Late Elementary

This pop/rock classic offers good practice in syncopation, changing key signatures and dynamic range. Because the themes are repetitive, it works well as a late beginning piano solo with only a couple rhythms & passages to work out, and then the player's job is just to follow the patterns and repeats, and have fun.

Hall of Fame (The Script) - Late Elementary

Hall of Fame arranged for Late Elementary piano solo.

Since verses of this song are rapped, this piano solo offers great opportunities to work on rhythm and tempo, and the chorus adds a melodic line to make it enjoyable both to play and listen to.
