There are a few classical pieces that my students seem to request year after year. These are pieces that are so well-known that even students who don't like "classical music" request these pieces because they are so often heard in movies, video games, and on TV.
I love teaching arrangements of these student favorites because they serve as an introduction to the works of the great composers, and they give less advanced students a taste of what they can accomplish if they continue to stick with piano.
Can you guess what these pieces are? Read on to find out, and to see my new arrangements available at Sheet Music Plus!

I have taken four of these student favorites and created authentic sounding, "easy piano" versions that are appropriate for students at the early intermediate level. Each arrangement also includes a practice page (shown below) that introduces students to the most challenging elements found in each of these pieces. It is my hope that these arrangements will help young pianists experience the joy of playing these beloved classical favorites for the first time!
