An Easy Arrangement for the Indermediate Pianist (~Grade 4)
Arrangement and performance by Henrik Kilhamn
Franz Schubert: Impromptu in G-flat major, Op. 90 no. 3
Key: G major (Easy key) + version in Original key G-flat major also included.

Schubert’s piano works belong to the kind of music that is much harder to play than what it sounds like! In this serene Impromptu, RH has to contend with melody notes with the top fingers and accompaniment pattern with the bottom, while LH supports with bass notes and lines. This arrangement flips this setup to free up RH completely for the melody and saves the accompaniment for LH. The regularity of the starting section gives way to new ideas in the middle episodes that are kept only at the expense of continuous 16th notes in a few places. Those places have a higher complexity that needs to be reduced in some way, but the long periods in between should give enough compensation to make Schubert’s music available for savoring.

ABOUT SIMPLE SOLUTIONS
This is for everyone who loves the great piano repertoire but haven’t (yet) developed the skill required to master it. After all, Beethoven, Chopin, and Debussy wrote music for professional musicians, and it takes many years of studies to achieve a level sufficient to play their pieces as written. However, the musical material can be separated into melody, harmony, rhythms, and textures, and in some cases simplified while preserving the core ideas. This is what I have done in these arrangements of some of the most beloved piano melodies by the great composers. In this easier setting, you will instead have enough time on your hands (literally!) to bring the music to life and care about those aspects that often otherwise come second: phrasing, articulation, dynamics, and balance. This will help you develop your over-all musicality, which will be of great value in all other pieces as well.

I believe you have the right to enjoy playing this great music with your own hands, even when the original writing is beyond your present level or would require too much time and effort. In the end, if you feel ready for a challenge and want to go forward with proper piano studies that requires years of practice—the originals are always there. In the meantime, these arrangements will bring you close to the same enjoyment, because all musical ideas are carefully conserved.

They are just a little bit easier.
