Once you have mastered the piano playing posture, finger shape, and how to read sheet music, the next step is to actually practice the songs.
But you don't know what song to practice first.
It's a good idea to buy a textbook such as Beyer's and practice the songs listed one by one, but it can become uninteresting if you only play songs you've never heard before.
will introduce five scores of famous songs that everyone has heard at least once,
All the music scores introduced here are music scores that can be used for free.
You can use it right away, so try playing it for a while and if you don't like it, try playing a different score.
Clicking on the sheet music image will take you to the site where it is posted, so if the image quality is rough and you have difficulty viewing it, please refer to the link.
I have chosen easy ones for beginners, but they are all sheet music that can be played with both hands .
If you are not yet accustomed to playing with both your right and left hands, try practicing with the sheet music we will introduce this time to learn the technique.

① Twinkle Twinkle Star
Everyone has sung "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" when they were little.
The melody of ``Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star'' is probably so easy that even people who have never practiced the piano can play it right away.
However, adding left-hand accompaniment to the right-hand melody is a good practice for piano beginners .
This is a very simple accompaniment sheet music that even beginners can play .
, let's practice playing with both hands using this Twinkle Twinkle Star
Of course, first practice only the right hand and then only the left hand.
By the way, the numbers above and below the notes are the fingering numbers.
Let's play slowly, checking each one one by one.

②Jingle Bells
This is also a very famous song, "Jingle Bells".
Every year around Christmas time, you probably hear it somewhere.
Many people may be more familiar with it than ①, "Twinkle, Twinkle Star."
The tempo is faster than “Twinkle Twinkle Star”Just a little more difficultIt has become.
At first, practice at a slower speed than the tempo of the sheet music.

③Happy Birthday to you
This is the song to sing on your birthday.
If you just look at the score, the first dotted eighth note is connected to the 16th note, which makes it hard to understand.
However, if you know a song, you can hear the sounds in your head and it's easier to play.
Try playing along with the rhythm or singing "Happy Birthday..." in your head.
By playing songs you know in this way, you will be able to grasp the length of the notes intuitively.

④Ode to Joy
The fourth piece is Beethoven's "Ode to Joy."
It is famous for the lyrics of ``Hararu Aozora♪''.
If you were to reproduce the original song, it would be a very difficult score, but this is a simple arrangement.
However, with the left hand, you have to move your hand a little to play, and you have to play three notes at the same time.
First, practice with your right and left hands separately, then try playing.

⑤Small world
The last one is a small world of Disney.
This is a very famous nursery rhyme.
It's a little difficult because the right hand has a slightly wider range and the left hand is a little faster.
If you can play the first two measures smoothly, you should be able to play the whole song.
Once you can play this smoothly, you will have graduated from the introductory difficulty level.

Extra edition
Finally, in the extra section, we will introduce ``Kimi wo Tosoete'', the ending theme of Studio Ghibli's ``Laputa: Castle in the Sky''.
Overall, it's relatively easy, but there are flats in La Si Mi.
I would like to introduce this song because it is perfect as an exercise song using the black keys.
If you have never heard of it, try searching for ``Kimi wo Tosete''.

At the age of 67, I started playing the piano to prevent dementia. I don't know what to buy, so I think I'll start with free items.
