Art Deco — Classic Piano Sheet Music
24 people have learned this song
Read "Art Deco" by Lana Del Rey in classic piano notation — both hands, real chords + notes, in the published key of D. Engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML; click any note to jump there as the score follows along at 99 BPM.
This arrangement is a great way to build confidence with minor-chord grooves in the key of D — your left hand plays block bass patterns, so focus on landing each root note cleanly and holding it steady while your right hand handles the melody above.
The five chords here (Bm, Em, G, and the two power-chord voicings Epow and Gpow) sit comfortably on the keyboard, but watch the transition from Bm to Em — at 99 BPM that shift can sneak up on you if your fingers aren't already hovering near position.
I'd suggest learning the left-hand pattern alone first, looping just the verse until the chord changes feel automatic, then layering in the right hand at around 70 BPM before bringing it up to tempo.
The trickiest stumbling point is usually the power chords: they're sparse, so any hesitation sounds obvious — commit to them with a confident, even touch.
Stick with this one and you'll really solidify your feel for energetic, minor-key pop rhythms that come up constantly in modern songs.

About “Art Deco”
- Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "Art Deco"?
- Yes — the score is rendered server-side from the publisher MusicXML using Verovio (the same engine RISM and OpenScore use). Standard piano notation, treble + bass staves, real chord symbols, key signature D. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
- What key is "Art Deco" by Lana Del Rey played in?
- Art Deco is arranged in the key of D on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
- What's the tempo (BPM) of "Art Deco"?
- The arrangement plays at 99 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
- Is "Art Deco" easy to play on piano?
- This is a medium-difficulty arrangement. Most players can learn it within a few practice sessions using the speed control.
- Can I download sheet music for "Art Deco"?
- Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
- Who composed "Art Deco"?
- "Art Deco" was originally performed by Lana Del Rey. The Super Simple Piano arrangement is simplified for beginner-to-intermediate players.
- What chords are used in "Art Deco"?
- This arrangement uses 5 chords: Bm, Em, Epow, G, Gpow.
- What other songs by Lana Del Rey can I play here?
- Try "SALVATORE", "LOVE", "BROOKLYN BABY". All are in our player with color-coded notes; pick the one matching your level.
- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes — "Art Deco" is rendered at engraver quality (the Verovio engine, the same toolkit RISM and OpenScore editions use) from the original publisher MusicXML. You get standard piano notation: treble + bass clefs, key signature D, time signature, beams, dynamics — everything a printed sheet music book would have. Great for piano students learning to read music properly.
- What's the difference between Sheet Music and the other modes here?
- Sheet Music is the "classic" view — the one your piano teacher uses. Other modes (Beginner, Fall Down, Simple Sheet, Lead Sheet) trade real notation for color-coded notes and falling shapes to help absolute beginners. Use Sheet Music once you're ready to read both hands at once from real notation.
- Can I practice from this view at my own pace?
- Yes — slow the tempo from 99 BPM down (or up) without changing the pitch. The score scrolls in time and the currently playing note is highlighted, so you can drill a tough bar at half speed and bump it up once it feels comfortable.
- Why can I click a note in the score?
- Every notehead is interactive. Click and the audio jumps to that moment so you can drill a specific phrase or bar instead of replaying from the top. The currently playing note is highlighted as the music advances so your eye never loses its place.
- Can I download the sheet music as a PDF?
- Yes — Sheet Music PDF is one of the download formats for this song. The engraved score prints page-perfect on A4 / Letter so you can practice from paper as well as on screen.
