Drinking Song

“Drinking Song” (Libiamo ne’ lieti calici) – Verdi’s famous brindisi from La Traviata, now in an easy-to-play piano arrangement in B-flat major. In a lively 3/8 meter, with a flowing sweep and an instantly uplifting, euphoric atmosphere. The simplified version lies wonderfully under the fingers, remains technically manageable and, after a short familiarization phase, can be played very quickly – perfect for birthdays, garden parties, impromptu musical get-togethers, or simply as a little charming interlude. Just under 1 minute of playing time, maximum feel-good effect. Verdi in between – without years of practice. A guaranteed success on any occasion. Ideal as an encore. Always effective. Prepared quickly. A little highlight. For learners and for those returning to the piano. Straight to the point. Always a pleasure.
