After playing the keyboard as a 12 year old and learning music theory for a year, as an adult I decided to start playing again. Ive invested in a digital piano with a pedal this time, and found this piece on YouTube. It is such a beautiful piece and not hard to learn if you have some existing theory knowledge. If you are a beginner with the pedal like me, this is a great starter piece to learn pedaling. Also to practice sight-reading with the pedals I would recommend Moonlight Sonata 1st Movement.

Its very clearly written and accurate to the recordings Ive heard. I really enjoy playing it and definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a pretty, fairly simple piano piece :)

Im a complete beginner on piano, but even after an hour of working my fingers over this arrangement I can start to feel it coming together. Lovely piece and seems a reasonable arrangement.
