Ophelia by The Lumineers Piano Solo - Digital Sheet Music

There are a couple of measures in this arrangement that will be very challenging for an early intermediate student - it might be the first time you've seen a sixteenth note sextuplet. (e.g. measures 9-10) I recommend listening to the recording a lot!----Why am I proud of my arrangements?To me, most arrangements are either needlessly difficult or don't really capture the "essence" of a song in the hands of a student/learning pianist!Most of my arrangements are field-tested on my students!  Many of the fingerings and editorial decisions are based on either my experience as a teacher or actual challenges my students encountered playing the arrangements.I usually include fingerings, which is time-consuming to put in and requires a lifetime of experience.My arrangements may not exactly match the original recording -- sometimes they leave out parts, especially when they are written for students who have less experience.I care about page breaks and formal structure -- I try to make sure that they make sense and, whenever possible, jumping back to a D.S. or repeat makes sense and doesn't require an unnecessary page turn.I have a classical B.Mus performance degree from Oberlin Conservatory, a M.Mus in Afro-Latin music and decades of experience as a performer in jazz, pop, Latin, and gospel music.  I've also worked as a composer, arranger, orchestrator and copyist in concert music, TV/film music, and more.  I'm a member of ASCAP, I was a music consultant on Mad Men, and my classical pieces have been Grand Prize winners.  My trombone music has been played by the associate trombonist of the New York Philharmonic.Working as a "rhythm section" player has helped me decide what is important in an arrangement and what isn't, and I often put a note or two in the "right" places to help students keep a rhythmic vitality going when performing.Just think, all of that experience helped me prepare this music for you, all for the price of an (admittedly fancy) cup of coffee.
