Lyrics are not included in this arrangement.
The song “Imagine" written by John Lennon and Yoko Ono in 1971, became the best-selling single of Lennon's solo career.
I was inspired to arrange this song for piano after an audience request at one of my First Friday Concerts for October 2023.
This intermediate piano solo arrangement is written in the key of C. It is clearly and carefully notated with dynamic marks, phrasing, suggested fingerings, pedal indications, chord identifications and appropriate musical terms for playing.
My arrangement incorporates chords which blend in with John Lennon’s style of singing. Students will learn proper pedaling as well as finger sustaining chords while playing accompaniment notes advancing their piano development.
This piano arrangement sounds artistic and impressive…a wonderful selection, ideal for teaching, recitals and those who enjoy playing the songs of John Lennon.
