Edward Elgar composed his Variations on an Original Theme, Op. 36, popularly known as the Enigma Variations, between October 1898 and February 1899. It is an orchestral work comprising fourteen variations on an original theme.

Elgar dedicated the work "to my friends pictured within", each variation being a musical sketch of one of his circle of close acquaintances (see musical cryptogram). Those portrayed include Elgar's wife Alice, his friend and publisher Augustus J. Jaeger and Elgar himself.

In naming his theme "Enigma" Elgar posed a challenge which has generated much speculation but has never been conclusively answered. The Enigma is widely believed to involve a hidden melody.

The name of the variation IX (NIMROD) refers to Augustus J. Jaeger, who was employed as music editor by the London publisher Novello & Co. He was a close friend of Elgar's, giving him useful advice but also severe criticism, something Elgar greatly appreciated. Elgar later related how Jaeger had encouraged him as an artist and had stimulated him to continue composing despite setbacks. Nimrod is described in the Old Testament as "a mighty hunter before the Lord", J�ger being German for hunter.

In 1904 Elgar told Dora Penny ("Dorabella") that this variation is not really a portrait, but "the story of something that happened". Once, when Elgar had been very depressed and was about to give it all up and write no more music, Jaeger had visited him and encouraged him to continue composing. He referred to Ludwig van Beethoven, who had a lot of worries, but wrote more and more beautiful music. "And that is what you must do", Jaeger said, and he sang the theme of the second movement of Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 8 Path�tique. Elgar disclosed to Dora that the opening bars of "Nimrod" were made to suggest that theme. "Can't you hear it at the beginning? Only a hint, not a quotation."

This variation has become popular in its own right and is sometimes used at British funerals, memorial services, and other solemn occasions. It is always played at the Cenotaph, Whitehall in London at the National Service of Remembrance. A version was also played during the Hong Kong handover ceremony in 1997 and at the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games. The ?Nimrod? variation was the final orchestral composition (before the national anthem) played by the Greek National Orchestra in a televised June 2013 concert, before the 75-year-old Athenian ensemble was dissolved in the wake of severe government cutbacks.

An adaptation of the piece appears at the ending of the 2017 film Dunkirk as part of the score

Die Stucke aus Piano Studies in Pop sollen nicht nur ein Gegenpol zur Klassik sein, vielmehr sollen sie die Bemuhungen Jazz- und Popmusik im Instrumentalunterricht zu integrieren, unterstutzen.
Es war Mike Schoenmehl ein besonderes Anliegen, klavieristische Lerninhalte in Form dieser Arrangements zu prasentieren, damit der Schuler nicht nur Stucke spielt, sondern dazu auch technische und musikalische Schwierigkeiten zu bewaltigen hat.

Yo, listen up, here's a story
About a little guy that lives in a blue world

Blue are the feelings that live inside me

From the album, Elegant Piano Covers, the third collection of piano covers from Christine Brown, an award-winning composer and distinguished Kawai Piano Artist.

With this sheet music, you can play the famous jazz / pop standard "For Once in My Life" on piano!

It's a playable, beautiful piano arrangement which contains the full melody, so it makes for a perfect instrumental (piano solo) cover.

Written by Ron Miller and Orlando Murden for Motown Records, it was first recorded in the mid-60s by Connie Haines and Jean DuShon.

Stevie Wonder recorded it as the title track for hit 1967 album, and it became a huge hit!

Other famous versions were recorded by Frank Sinatra, The Temptations, Diana Ross, Tony Bennett, and Michael Bubl�.

Today, "For Once in My Life" is a popular jazz standard / pop standard, and it's a fantastic song to play on the piano!

Here are the song's famous lyrics:

For once in my life
I have someone who needs me
Someone I have needed so long
For once unafraid
I can go where life leads me
And somehow I know I'll be strong

For once I can touch
What my heart used to dream of
Long before I knew
Someone warm like you
Would make my dreams come true

For once in my life
I won't let sorrow hurt me
Not like it's hurt me before
For once I have something
I know won't desert me
I'm not alone anymore

For once I can say
"This is mine, you can't take it"
Long as I know I have love
I can make it
For once in my life
I have someone who needs me

With this sheet music, you can play "Hurt" by Johnny Cash on piano!

It's an accurate, carefully created piano arrangement of the full song.

The entire melody is included in the piano part, so it makes for a perfect instrumental / piano solo cover.

"Hurt" was written by Trent Reznor. He recorded it with his band Nine Inch Nails for their second studio album "The Downward Spiral" (released in 1994).

In 2002, the song was covered by the late Johnny Cash, and included on his last album "American IV: The Man Comes Around".

In February 2003, "Hurt" was released as the album's second single - just seven months before Johnny Cash passed away.

The accompanying music video won both a Grammy and a CMA Award for best video of the year, and was named the best video of all time by NME!

"Hurt" became one of Johnny Cash's most popular songs, with critics praising his deep voice, and the sincerity of his performance of Reznor's dark lyrics (which include references to self-harm and heroin addiction).

Trent Reznor was blown away by Johnny Cash's version of the song:

"I pop the video in, and wow... Tears welling, silence, goose-bumps... Wow. I felt like I just lost my girlfriend, because that song isn't mine anymore... It really made me think about how powerful music is as a medium and art form. I wrote some words and music in my bedroom as a way of staying sane, about a bleak and desperate place I was in, totally isolated and alone. [Somehow] that winds up reinterpreted by a music legend from a radically different era/genre and still retains sincerity and meaning ? different, but every bit as pure."

Needless to say, "Hurt" is a wonderful, emotional song to play on the piano!

"Dream a Little Dream of Me" sounds wonderful on piano - with this sheet music, you can play it too!

The full melody is included in the piano part, so this arrangement makes for a perfect instrumental (piano solo) cover.

Composed in 1931 by Fabian Andre and Wilbur Schwandt (to lyrics by Gus Kahn), "Dream a Little Dream of Me" became a famous jazz/pop standard, and was recorded by many great artists.

Among the most popular versions are the ones recorded by Louis Armstrong & Ella Fitzgerald, Dean Martin, Nat King Cole, Doris Day, Mama Cass, Michael Bubl�, Robbie Williams & Lily Allen, and of course the famous 1968 cover by The Mamas & The Papas.

"Dream a Little Dream of Me" is a wonderful song to play on the piano!

Eleanor Rigby featured on The Beatles album, Revolver, and is popular owing to its' string accompaniment and melancholy sound. This arrangement has taken the melody of the song and combined to to a piano accompaniment similar to Satie's Gnossienne's to produce a tranquil sound with hints of pop and jazz chord structures.

If you like this arrangement you may also like my arrangement of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds arranged in the style of Satie's Gymnopedie's.

With this sheet music, you can play the Christmas song "Carol of the Bells" on the piano!

It's a beautiful piano version based on the famous recording on the "Home Alone" soundtrack (arranged by film music legend John Williams).

The full melody is included in the piano part, so it makes for a perfect instrumental (piano solo) cover.

"Carol of the Bells" is a composition by Ukrainian composer Mykola Dmytrovych Leontovych (1877-1921), who wrote many choral arrangements of traditional folk music.
This piece, too, is based on an Ukranian folk song: "Shchedryk" (Щедрик) is originally a New Year's song, known in English as "The Little Swallow".

It 1921, the song was performed by the Ukranian National Chorus at the sold-out Carnegie Hall in New York City!

In 1936, American composer Peter J. Wilhousky added English lyrics to the song and rearranged the melody for orchestra. Together with the NBC Symphony Orchestra, he is largely responsible for the song's popularity today.

John Williams famously arranged the song for the soundtrack of the 1990 film "Home Alone".
Other famous cover versions were recorded by Richard Carpenter, The Piano Guys, Pentatonix, and Lindsey Stirling.

Today, "Carol of the Bells" is one of the most popular Christmas carols, and it makes for a wonderful piano piece!

With this sheet music, you can play "Beyond the Sea" (originally "La Mer") on piano!

It's a carefully created piano arrangement of the famous chanson which is playable, and sounds beautiful.

The entire melody is included in the piano part, so it makes for a perfect instrumental / piano solo cover.

"Beyond the Sea" was composed by French singer-songwriter Charles Trenet in 1943, then titled "La Mer". He recorded it in 1946.

Over time, it became a popular jazz standard / chanson classic, and has been recorded by many other artists.

The lyrics for the English version (retitled "Beyond the Sea") were written by Jack Lawrence.
Bobby Darin's 1959 recording was a big hit, and further popularized the tune.

The song was also used in the end credits of the 2003 Disney / Pixar film "Finding Nemo", in a version by Robbie Williams.

"Beyond the Sea" makes for a wonderful piano piece!

Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Sonata no 8 in C minor, op 13 commonly known as Path�tique (although commonly thought to be one of the few works to be named by the composer himself, it was actually named by the publisher, to Beethoven's liking) was published in 1799, though written the year before, when the composer was 27 years old. Beethoven dedicated the work to his friend Prince Karl von Lichnowsky. At the time of its publication, Beethoven was pleased with the title Path�tique for his op 13 piano sonata, although in later life, he came to regret it, claiming that all of his works were pathetic.

The Path�tique Sonata is perhaps the earliest of Beethoven's compositions to achieve widespread and enduring popularity. It is widely represented on the concert programs and recordings of professional pianists. As one of the more famous Beethoven pieces, it has been incorporated into several works of popular culture.

The rondo theme of the second movement is one of the most beautiful and famous tunes in the repertoire. This theme is not merely pretty; it is, after the vicious first movement conclusion, a heroic if melancholy affirmation that life goes on, that beneath sorrow and pain, there is still grace and nobility.

This Adagio movement opens with the famous cantabile ("in a singing style") melody. This theme is played three times, interspersed with two modulating episodes: the first going from F minor to E flat major, the second from A flat minor to E major. With the final return of the main theme, the accompaniment becomes richer and takes on the triplet rhythm of the second episode. The brief coda's stylistic diversity is arresting: four bars of Romantic transcendence followed by a strikingly conventional 18th-century close.
