When Disney asked Jarrod Radnich to create and perform piano arrangements as part of their new $15M Disneyland featured attraction, Radnich responded with unique creations that would go to become the best-selling solo piano sheet music in the world—setting a fire to the world stage in popularizing contemporary music with combined piano virtuosity.
From Radnich’s legendary Pirates of the Caribbean, to Hollywood blockbuster soundtracks and contemporary pop hits, sheet music for many of Jarrod Radnich’s arrangements has been published and is available in his online store and at Musicnotes.com. In all cases, the arrangements allow a pianist to show off their skills while playing music that they, and their audiences, will enjoy—whether it be for high-level competitions, the holidays, recitals, or friendly gatherings. Sheet music is divided into three series: the Virtuosic Piano Solo Series™, the Advanced Piano Solo Series™, and the 4-Hand Piano Duet Series™—all include pedal marks and, where helpful, suggested finger positioning.
All of these arrangements provide recital-level and competition worthy piano solos primarily for advanced pianists, although intermediate level pianists will enjoy the challenge of learning these large-scale and technique-filled arrangements. Working through these arrangements should provide the student pianist with not only a sense of accomplishment and a repertoire that they will enjoy sharing with family and friends, but also provides the pianist with substantial technique building pieces. Music instructors can use sections of the various arrangements to illustrate a variety of techniques and keep the experience interesting and fun for the student.
Virtuosic Piano Solo Series
The musical arrangements in the Virtuosic Piano Solo™ Series are for extremely advanced pianists. These technically challenging arrangements are sure to provide an enthralling “wow” factor for your concerts where previous musical arrangements of these melodies were too simple to do so.
Advanced Piano Solo Series
Unlike many other compositions labeled “advanced” by music publishers, the arrangements in the truly Advanced Piano Solo™ Series are actually considered to be very advanced, but without the lengthy runs and extreme jumps and rhythm changes found in the Virtuosic Series.
4-Hand Piano Duet Series
Playing the piano is more often than not a solo endeavor, and with a desire to expand his piano sheet music collection to include fun and exciting arrangements that two pianists could share together, Radnich recently launched his new 4-Hand Virtuosic and Advanced piano arrangements of contemporary music.
