Are you looking for beautiful and easy piano songs for beginners?
You don’t need to play dull or ugly tunes when starting the piano. Or pieces for kids. As an adult, even if you are a parent, you may want to play the music you love, right?
The good news is there are beautiful and easy piano songs for beginners that you can enjoy playing in a few days. I believe that making music is not a dream accessible only to people having practised for ten years or more.
Here are the categories (you can jump directly to the one you want by clicking on it):
You can also use the Table of Content at the top 👆 of this page to see the full list of songs and navigate quickly.
Playing the piano doesn’t have to be hard!
Imagine just sitting down and effortlessly playing the tunes you love, and seeing the smiles on the faces of your friends and family as you play!
Picture this: You’re at a piano, your fingers are gliding over the keys, and you’re creating beautiful music. The room is filled with warmth, joy, and the sweet sound of your favorite songs. It feels like a dream come true!
But maybe, right now, that confidence seems a million miles away. Alone at the piano, the worry of hitting a wrong note stops you in your tracks, and the idea of learning more complex songs feels overwhelming.
I’ve been there, and I totally get it.
It’s not about your ability; it’s about finding the right way to learn. Discovering a method that is fun and works can be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Practicing can sometimes feel like a chore, especially when you’re trying to get your hands to cooperate and hit the right notes. I wandered through years of trial and error before I found a method that clicked with me and made me say goodbye to those frustrating and costly lessons.
I’ve waved goodbye to the frustration and limitations, and I’m excited for you to do the same! 🌟
Let me share with you the joyful method I use to learn the piano quickly and with so much fun! 🎶
That said I promised you to access easy to play piano songs that will enchant you and your relatives, so here they are!
A last thing before you start, two things actually:
- These songs may be altered versions to make them easier to play. I paid attention to finding beautiful arrangements, though. Because you can also find crap versions of them, trust me!
- You can usually find a slower version of them on the same YouTube channel (also a criterion for my choice). I link here to the ’normal’ speed, but you will need to start slowly to learn.
PRO TIP: on YouTube, you can change the speed of the videos, which can be pretty helpful to start learning a new song.
