This sheet was made from Jeff Williams’s YouTube piano video, “The Notebook - Main Theme - (piano solo)”. Watch it, then keep practicing here.

This lovely piano solo was written by Aaron Zigman, and is the main theme from the 2004 romantic drama The Notebook, which is considered by many to be one of the most romantic movies ever made. I've actually never seen it, but I had to learn this beautiful piece for my best friend's wedding.

Questions about this song (11)
What does the sheet music of "The Notebook Main Theme" show?
Standard piano notation drawn from this song's own MusicXML: treble and bass staves, the key signature of C and every note of both hands, with the bar you are playing marked as it plays.
What key is "The Notebook Main Theme" by Aaron Zigman played in?
The Notebook Main Theme 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 "The Notebook Main Theme"?
The arrangement plays at 52 BPM. Use the speed control (10-200%) to practice slower or play faster.
Is "The Notebook Main Theme" 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 "The Notebook Main Theme"?
Yes — registered users can download PDF sheet music, plus MIDI and MusicXML files for use in other notation software.
Who composed "The Notebook Main Theme"?
"The Notebook Main Theme" was originally performed by Aaron Zigman. The Super Simple Piano arrangement is simplified for beginner-to-intermediate players.
Is this the same notation a piano teacher would hand me?
Yes — "The Notebook Main Theme" 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 — 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 52 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.
