Franz Schubert composed his lied "An die Musik" (German for "To Music") in March 1817 for solo voice and piano, with text from a poem by his friend Franz von Schober. In the Deutsch catalog of Schubert's works it is number D547. The original key is D major. It was published in 1827 as Opus 88, No. 4, by Thadd�us Weigl [de]. Schubert dedicated the song to the Viennese piano virtuoso Albert Sowinsky on April 24, 1827, a decade after he composed it.

A hymn to the art of music, it is one of the best-known songs by Schubert. Its greatness and popularity are generally attributed to its harmonic simplicity, sweeping melody, and a strong bass line that effectively underpins the vocal line.

This beautiful piece appears in In the final episode of Netflix Series "Unorthodox", the timelines converge as Esty auditions for a scholarship that could guarantee her a future pursuing music in Berlin. Having been told by one of her new friends that she doesn't have the skills as a pianist -- despite having taken secret lessons back in Brooklyn -- Esty chooses to sing. She first performs Schubert's "An die Musik," which she picks because it was a favorite of hers and her grandmothers. "An die Musik" is quite literally an ode to music, and is a fitting choice for Esty, for whom music is a lifeline. But her voice doesn't quite match it.

Leonard Cohen was a Canadian singer, songwriter, poet, and novelist. His song, Hallelujah, is very popular among students and performers. It's simple harmonic and melodic structure has allowed it to be a used for holidays, funerals, weddings, worship, and even in the midst of tragedy.

This year, I've been arranging songs that I consider to be important. In my opinion, any song that can be used in so many different situations and appeals to so many different people certainly qualifies as an important contribution to song history!

My arrangement is written in 6/8 time, with arpeggios in the bass for the most part, and a verse and chorus repeated three times, each time a little bit differently, and with a little bit of melodic variation. The arrangement is intended for intermediate to early advanced players because it has four-note chords, some octave work, and an area where there are bass leaps in the left hand.
