The Korena take

Easy Piano arrangements of Beatles songs. For pianists past the beginner stage who want recognizable versions they can play now rather than practice for months.

Product studyHal Leonard The Beatles 1 For Easy Piano

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Second- or third-year piano students building a song repertoire
  • Adult returners who want familiar tunes fast
  • Teachers needing accessible material students already know

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Advanced pianists wanting the original piano parts note for note
  • Guitarists or singers — this is piano notation
  • Players who only read chord symbols and lyrics

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Easy Piano arrangement

Simplified rhythms, reduced left hand, mostly single-note melody. Sounds like the song, not identical to the record.

Detail 02

Notated in standard notation

You need to read treble and bass clef. Chord names alone won't get you through these pages.

Detail 03

Beatles 1 collection

Chart-topping singles rather than deep album cuts, so nearly every song is one you can hum already.

Detail 04

Print songbook, $22.99

One-time cost across many songs, cheaper per tune than buying individual digital sheets.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Print book only — no recordings or backing tracks come with it
  2. 02Easy Piano is a level, not a beginner primer; you need basic reading first
  3. 03Perfect-bound pages resist staying open; a page weight helps

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Is this good for a total beginner?

Not on day one. Easy Piano assumes you can already read notes in both clefs and play hands together slowly. Work through a method book first, then this.

02Does it sound like the actual recordings?

Close enough to be recognizable. Arrangements are simplified for two hands, so intros, harmonies and instrumental parts get condensed or trimmed.

03Are lyrics included?

Easy Piano editions in this series print lyrics with the melody line, so you can sing or accompany someone singing.

04Can I use this on a keyboard instead of a piano?

Yes. Nothing here requires a full 88 keys or pedal work; a 61-key keyboard handles these arrangements.
