A long, long time a go, that liv there was a vol ca no
an liv ing all a lone in the mid dle of the sea.
He sat high a bove his bay, watch ing all the cou ples play be cause and wish ing that he had some one, too.
And from his la va came this song of hope that he sang out he loud his ev βry day for years and years.
βI have a dream
I hope will come true,
that youβre here with me
and Iβm here with you.
I wish that the earth, sea and the sky up a bove a will send
me some one to la va.β
Years of sing ing all a lone turned his la va in to stone, un til
he was on the brink of ex tinc tion.

About βLavaβ
- Is this the same engraved sheet music a piano teacher would print for "Lava"?
- Yes β 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 C. Print-quality and identical to what you'd see in a printed piano book.
- What key is "Lava" by Kuana Torres Kahele & Napua Greig played in?
- Lava is arranged in the key of C on Super Simple Piano. You can transpose to any other key live in the player.
- What's the tempo (BPM) of "Lava"?
- The arrangement plays at 150 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
- Is "Lava" easy to play on piano?
- This is an advanced arrangement. We recommend breaking it into sections and using the speed control to drill harder passages.
- Can I download sheet music for "Lava"?
- Yes β registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
- Who composed "Lava"?
- "Lava" was originally performed by Kuana Torres Kahele & Napua Greig. The Super Simple Piano arrangement is simplified for beginner-to-intermediate players.
- Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
- Yes β "Lava" 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 C, time signature, beams, dynamics β 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 β 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 β slow the tempo from 150 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 β 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.
