A popular love-ballad, “More Than Words” topped the charts around the world in 1990 and has since been covered by Westlife and parodied on TV shows. It’s been a tricky one to work out as parts are sung in duet, so I focused on the notes of the lead singer – I hope you enjoy […]

More from the new film The Greatest Showman, this song “Never Enough” is a lovely, simple ballad which I’ve written as simply as possible to help out beginners! It goes quite low, so could be make a great practice piece for beginner pianists or guitar/ukulele, aiding note recognition. Woodwinds may need to shift the key […]
A lovely, low tune to practice – “Colours of the Wind” is the main song from the Disney film Pocahontas. I particularly enjoyed this one on flute, it (nearly) sounds lovely!

Queen’s iconic hit “We are the Champions” is known all over the world and is retaliatory slow and simple, which makes it a great practice piece for beginners. The letter notes to the song can be used by beginners on most instruments – adjust the key up / down accordingly 🙂 We are the Champions […]
The first of a bunch of Les Misérables songs to come! I’ve got a bit obsessed with this song recently, it’s so lovely and so sad 😛 But it makes a great piece for beginners to practice. I’ve enjoyed shifting it up a bit to play it on the flute – I hope you enjoy […]
A lower tune than I realised, “Almost There” is a fun and upbeat tune to play. It’s relatively simple so it’s great for beginners, the challenge will be getting up to speed 🙂 Woodwinds (and other instruments) may like to shift the song up a bit to make it a bit easier to play. Happy […]
