majestic and dignifiedEdward Elgar
Pomp and Circumstance by Edward Elgar is a piece you hear in many settings—TV shows, commercials, graduation ceremonies, and more.
The piano, capable of producing a broad range of sounds simultaneously and often said to rival an orchestra on its own, is perfect for recreating its grand atmosphere with just one performer.
That said, beginner-friendly arrangements are typically made up of only the melody and the bass line, so even those attempting two-handed playing for the first time can tackle it without feeling overwhelmed.
Once you’re comfortable with the simple version, why not aim for a more orchestral sound and gradually try arrangements with a fuller, richer texture?
Spinning SongEllmenreich Albert
Albert Ellmenreich, a German composer and also an actor at a court theater, wrote “Spinning Song,” a piece often performed at recitals.
Depicting women of the time spinning thread with a spinning wheel, the piece—though short—features rich contrasts in dynamics and tempo, and includes rapid runs and staccato, making it an ideal work for beginner pianists to study.
Aim to maintain a light, airy character while taking care not to rush forward.

Someday My Prince Will ComeFrank Churchill
Someday My Prince Will Come, the song from Disney’s 1937 film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, is a romantic piece that portrays Snow White’s maidenly heart as she dreams of her prince coming to meet her.
The melody’s range isn’t very wide, and the tempo is relaxed, making it an easy piece for beginners to play.
In particular, this beginner-level sheet music consists only of the melody line and bass notes, so you can take your time understanding note names and note values as you practice.
The original melody is so beautiful that you can fully enjoy the Disney atmosphere even with a simple arrangement!
GavotteFrançois-Joseph Gossec
Gossec’s Gavotte, by the Belgian composer François-Joseph Gossec, is arguably the most famous piece bearing the name of the classical dance originating in France, the gavotte.
Although originally composed for violin and orchestra, it is now included in many piano method books and is beloved as a practice piece for beginning pianists.
Combining both a cheerful and an elegant character, the key to performing this piece is to keep the leaping left-hand accompaniment from becoming heavy.
Try playing with an awareness of your fingertips while imagining light, nimble steps on tiptoe.
Mickey Mouse MarchJimmie Dodd
When it comes to Disney characters, everyone loves Mickey Mouse! The Mickey Mouse March, his theme song, is so popular with children that it’s practically a staple for piano recitals.
In addition to its familiar, friendly tune, it’s very easy to play because the melody stays within a single octave, and its bouncy rhythm lets you fully enjoy the fun of playing the piano—another reason for its popularity.
Rather than thinking “Let’s play perfectly” or “Let’s not make mistakes,” try practicing with the mindset of “Let’s enjoy performing on the piano!”
Wish Upon a StarLeigh Harline
Disney’s beloved classic “When You Wish Upon a Star” is cherished around the world.
With its soothing melody and beautiful harmonic progression, this piece is also extremely popular among adult piano learners! It’s frequently performed at piano recitals.
Another reason for its popularity is that many different scores are published, making it easy to find an arrangement that suits you.
To start, choose an arrangement like this one with minimal left-hand movement; it helps you focus on the right-hand melody, making it approachable even for beginners.
Minuet in G majorLudwig van Beethoven
When you hear “Minuet in G major,” many may think of Christian Petzold’s piece long attributed to Johann Sebastian Bach.
However, Beethoven’s Minuet is equally famous as a staple practice piece at the beginner piano level.
While both the notes and structure are very simple, playing the theme’s repeated thirds legato is by no means easy.
Pay close attention to your finger shape and wrist movement, and aim to keep the sound connected without breaks.
