Originally by Leonard Cohen, this song is a classic! The piano solo arrangement of Hallelujah is perfect for the intermediate pianist wanting to learn a classic!

Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah
Piano version, 3 pages, with chords.

This is an intermediate solo piano arrangement of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah, made famous by the 2001 film Shrek (performed by Rufus Wainwright), and since performed by Jeff Buckley, the Pentatonix, and many others. It includes the lyrics for all five verses.

As a professional pianist and piano instructor, I have found that many arrangements of this song are either too difficult for my students with constant left hand arpeggios, or they are too simple and do not include the famous arpeggio movement at all. Often they also do not include the lyrics. I've created this arrangement to bridge the gap between sounding like the original and being accessible for beginning to intermediate piano players. I hope you enjoy! .

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.
