Easy Piano - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.511139 By L. v. Beethoven. By L. v. Beethoven. Arranged by Henrique Gil. Classical. Score. 3 pages. Henrique Gil #122064. Published by Henrique Gil (A0.511139). Beethoven wrote this small gem on April 27, 1810, and called it a ābagatelle.ā The termās meaning is a trifle or a thing of little importance. In music, a bagatelle is a short, light piece of music, usually for the piano. It is similar to an āAlbumblattā, literally an āalbum leafā, a solo piano piece friends could share with one another by pasting it in a musical scrapbook. Musically, it is a five-part rondo with the form ABACA. It is in the key of A minor, which gives it a sad or wistful sound, full of regret and longing. The repeating A section is the most recognized part of FĆ¼r Elise. It is the easiest section to learn and play. The other sections are more difficult to play, although shorter in length. They are more virtuosic for the intermediate student, creating a flash of brilliant light among the repetitive darker minor strains of the A section.
