Since the Twilight movie hit the big screen it appears that may people actually desires to learn how to play Bella’s lullaby (among the songs from the film). Actually, this music is made by a Korean composer and pianist Yiruma and the musical piece is entitled River Flows in You (apart from his another hit Kiss the Rain).

Most of the people who are interested in knowing this musical piece want to have the sheet music. But wouldn’t it be nice if you may actually make your own music such as this? It’s possible. And it’s much simpler than you think.

You see, Bella’s lullaby (River Flows in You) is straightforward a constant left hand pattern with a good tune lay on the top. To the uninitiated this looks like it will be hard to make. But the truth is it is quite simple.

The very first thing you need to do is familiarize the left hand pattern. And, just like any music pattern, this is done by knowing the chords at first. It looks as if Yiruma is making use of chords (open position) in the left hand. This chord composition provides you with a nice open sound which is used often in piano music today. In fact, the piano tutorial, will guide you how you can do that – play chords (open position chords) to make your very own music.

When you see how simple it is, you’ll be surprised. And just like everything else, when the door is open up and you can fully grasp what’s being carried out, you can try it to other pieces of music too.

After taking a look at River Flows in You, I found out that four chords are being used. They are performed in a consistent pattern and it appears to be as if the right hand melody was originally improvised. This is how most of the pianist or composers start when composing anyway. They let the music to flow through improvisation and then write down the melody as soon as they’re on to something they want.

If you are an amateur piano, flute, violin, clarinet player and want some simple piano songs to master then you must try River flows in You sheet music. As a musical instrument player myself I know how essential it is to play various genres of music. It helps keep your skill well-defined and your knowledge of how music is performed at a very high level. When you have mastered the song, going onto the harder songs can be a little easier for you.
