Easy piano arrangement in the key of E at 75 BPM. Difficulty: medium. Color-coded notes — no sheet-reading skill required.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to develop your legato touch and sustain pedal control — both essential at this dreamy 75 BPM tempo.

In the key of E major you'll be navigating four sharps, so let your fingers settle into that hand position early; the chord shapes around E, B, C#m, and A will start feeling natural faster than you think.

Your left hand will likely carry arpeggiated or broken-chord patterns, so practice that hand alone first until the reach between intervals feels smooth and automatic.

Watch the transitions into and out of C#m especially — that shift tends to trip people up when the right hand melody sustains over it.

Use the pedal to connect notes, but change it cleanly with each chord shift or you'll get muddy harmonic overlap.

Try looping the chorus at half speed until your hands sync comfortably, then bring it up to tempo.

This is the piece that will really train your ear for smooth pedal changes and teach your hands to stay relaxed through slow, exposed passages — skills that pay off in everything you play next.
