Love Of My Life by Queen Piano Solo - Digital Sheet Music

SKU: A0.596585

"Love Of My Life" -composed by Freddie Mercury- is one of the most beautiful ballads in the history of rock music, and a fantastic song to play as piano solo.

This is not a simplified arrangement. Is an arrangement that will sound quite like the original - with the obvious difference that all music and secondary melodies must be played by a single instrument - the piano.

This version follows the studio recording, not the version made by Queen for their live performances.

My score includes chord symbols, in case you prefer to play them instead of reading exactly each note I've written.

You can have a listen at YouTube (and "soon" on Spotify and other digital platforms):

"Love Of My Life" was included on Queen’s album "A Night at the Opera" (1975). The ballad was composed for Mary Austin.

Freddie Mercury said about this song:

"Love Of My Life" is adapted on stage for guitar, but it was written on the piano. I've totally forgotten the original and if you asked me to play that now, I couldn't. Sometimes, I have to go back to the music sheet, and I can't read that well either.

I hate this thing about trying to recreate the albums on stage. We sometimes deliberately change. Look at 'Love Of My Life', for instance. On record I play piano on that but on stage it's just Brian playing the guitar and me singing it, because it works on stage better that way.
