An Easy Arrangement for the Indermediate Pianist (~Grade 5)
Arrangement and performance by Henrik Kilhamn
Key: G major (Easy key) + version in Oiginal key A major also included.

Brahms’ writing is arguably more symphonic than pianistic. This shows in big chords that change often underneath the melody, and with a weave of contrapuntal motion that includes several voices–a lot to keep up with! In order to keep the output at a nice level with melody in RH and easier chords in LH, more reduction is needed in Brahms than in for example Chopin. The music is so rich, however, that what is left is sufficient in any case for an enjoyable playing experience of this marvelous piece of piano music in Brahms’ late style.

ABOUT SIMPLE SOLUTIONS
This is for everyone who loves the great piano repertoire but haven’t (yet) developed the skill required to master it. After all, Beethoven, Chopin, and Debussy wrote music for professional musicians, and it takes many years of studies to achieve a level sufficient to play their pieces as written. However, the musical material can be separated into melody, harmony, rhythms, and textures, and in some cases simplified while preserving the core ideas. This is what I have done in these arrangements of some of the most beloved piano melodies by the great composers. In this easier setting, you will instead have enough time on your hands (literally!) to bring the music to life and care about those aspects that often otherwise come second: phrasing, articulation, dynamics, and balance. This will help you develop your over-all musicality, which will be of great value in all other pieces as well.

I believe you have the right to enjoy playing this great music with your own hands, even when the original writing is beyond your present level or would require too much time and effort. In the end, if you feel ready for a challenge and want to go forward with proper piano studies that requires years of practice—the originals are always there. In the meantime, these arrangements will bring you close to the same enjoyment, because all musical ideas are carefully conserved.

They are just a little bit easier.
