Symphonie Fantastique (Fantastical Symphony: Episode in the Life of an Artist â€¦ in Five Sections) Op. 14, is a program symphony written by the French composer Hector Berlioz in 1830. It is an important piece of theearly Romantic period. The first performance was at the Paris Conservatoire on 5 December 1830. Franz Liszt made a piano transcription of the symphony in 1833 (S. 470).Leonard Bernstein described the symphony as the first musical expedition into psychedelia because of itshallucinatory and dream-like nature, and because history suggests Berlioz composed at least a portion under the influence of opium. According to Bernstein, Berlioz tells it like it is. You take a trip, you wind up screaming at your own funeral.Symphonie Fantastique is a piece of program music that tells the story of an artist gifted with a lively imagination who has poisoned himself with opium in the depths of despair because of hopeless, unrequited love.The original way in which Berlioz fused all the ingredients and elements into his music with great emotional intensity and musical brilliance makes this symphony such a masterpiece. It was truly revolutionary in that nothing like it had ever been heard before.

I'm certain that this wonderful arrangement of the March from Tchaikovsky's marvelous holiday favorite, The Nutcracker Suite, will continue to entertain both performers and audiences alike for years to come.

Easy Piano - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.918146 By Lee DeWyze. By Leonard Cohen. Arranged by Joe Kelly. Rock. Score. 3 pages. Joe Kelly #5896841. Published by Joe Kelly (A0.918146). This performance of Hallelujah is for grade 1-3 piano students, and is rewarding to practice.  It is an impressive recital piece for primary/high school performance and free-choice piece options in exams.  It may look intimidating for an early student, but the left hand pattern is easy to pick up and perform. The piece includes chord symbols, so that students can learn the underlying harmony behind each broken chord. Suggested fingering and pedalling are also included. It is best to practise the left hand considerably in isolation to build confidence and a steady tempo before placing hands together.  It is not necessary to use the pedal; if it is used, defer playing with the pedal until the piece is memorised.
