Disney Classics to Enjoy on Piano | Recommended Picks (21–30)
Christmas Stories
A piece that has long been beloved as the music for the Christmas parade at Tokyo Disneyland, it has remained in the hearts of many guests.
Its bright, festive march-style melody skillfully weaves in classic Christmas songs such as “We Need a Little Christmas” and “Joy to the World,” and when played on piano, it offers a delicate, warm atmosphere that differs from the bustle of the parade.
It was created for the parade that has been performed since 2015 and was included on the album “Tokyo Disney Resort Winter Fun!” in November 2021.
In November 2024, a final-year version was also released, bringing the parade to a close together with its sponsor, Japan Airlines.
Why not try playing it when you want to revisit your Christmas memories through music or enjoy a bit of the park atmosphere at home?
Davy JonesHans Zimmer
Composed by Hans Zimmer, this piece was released in July 2006 as part of the soundtrack for the film Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest.
It is a film score that makes effective use of orchestra and chorus, characterized by a dark and eerie tone.
Beginning with a music box and then passing the melody to the orchestra and organ, it brilliantly conveys the characters’ complex emotions.
Playing an important role in emphasizing the film’s themes, this work showcases Zimmer’s talent to the fullest.
It’s recommended for those who want to play a piece on the piano with a different atmosphere from the many beautiful and bright Disney songs.
Winnie the PoohThe Sherman Brothers
Winnie the Pooh — Pooh is so comical and cute! Just watching him makes your heart feel light and healed.
The piano performance of this piece is also very soothing.
It might be a song you find yourself wanting to listen to at night after a rough day.
Tokyo Disneyland Electrical ParadeGershon Kingsley
Tokyo Disneyland Electrical Parade, where the main melody is cheerfully repeated over and over.
It’s a very fun and undeniably beautiful piece.
Just hearing the intro makes you feel like you’re at Disneyland.
Steamboat WillieLeighton Bros
Steamboat Willie is the first work released as a Mickey Mouse short film.
In the film, Mickey whistles this tune, and it’s said that the whistling was done by Walt Disney himself.
Enjoy it in a piano arrangement.
Aloha e komo maiDanny Jacob
This is “Aloha E Komo Mai,” the theme song from the Lilo & Stitch TV series.
It’s a poppy, rhythmic piano arrangement that brings to mind the slightly mischievous Stitch and the lively Lilo.
The chorus makes you want to hum along.
Without youJohn Goodman & Billy Crystal
It’s the theme song from Monsters, Inc., If I Didn’t Have You.
It’s arranged as a duet and finished in a very lively way.
While Disney is best known for its princess films, I also love the quirky duo of Sulley and Mike.
This wonderful piece captures their comedic charm.
