  Despite	its	troubled	production	and	the	fact	that	fans	have	a	lot	of	problems	with	the	movie,	the	Queen	biopic	Bohemian	Rhapsody	got	a	broad	release	in	the	United	States	on	Nov.	2,	2018.

It	took	the	better	part	of	a	decade	to	go	from	concept
  to	finished	product.	2010:	Queen	guitarist	Brian	May	tells	the	BBC	that	Sacha	Baron	Cohen	is	playing	singer	Freddie	Mercury	in	the	movie.	2011:	In	an	interview	with	the	Daily	Record,	May	says	the	rest	of	his	bandmates	are	hesitant	to	make	the	movie.	2013:	Cohen	steps	aside	after	some	dreaded	“creative	differences.”	2015:	Anthony	McCarten
  replaces	Oscar-winner	Peter	Morgan	as	the	screenwriter.	2016:	Rami	Malek	joins	the	cast	to	play	Freddie	Mercury.	2017:	The	production	company	fires	Bryan	Singer	as	director,	but	he’s	still	credited	with	the	finished	product.	What	do	the	reviews	say	about	Bohemian	Rhapsody?	Spoiler	alert!	The	Bohemian	Rhapsody	reviews	are	mixed.	The	film	gets
  mixed	reviews,	but	it’s	among	the	music	movies	with	the	biggest	opening	weekends.	|	20th	Century	Fox	Rolling	Stone	reviewer	Peter	Travers	gushes	about	Malek’s	performance,	writing,	“Screw	the	film’s	flaws,	you	don’t	want	to	miss	his	performance.”	The	movie	earns	a	so-so	60%	fresh	rating	at	review	site	Rotten	Tomatoes.	Reviewing	for	Slate,
  Jeffrey	Bloomer	writes	that	Bohemian	Rhapsody	is	fun	and	infuriating	all	at	once.	However,	Roger	Ebert’s	website	and	The	New	York	Times	were	less	forgiving.	It	earned	a	1-star	review	from	Ebert	reviewer	Sheila	O’Malley,	while	the	Times	writes	that	“the	film	seems	engineered	to	be	as	unmemorable	as	possible.”	Ouch.	Following	the	success	of
  Bohemian	Rhapsody	and	the	star	Rami	Malek’s	Oscar	winning	performance	of	Freddie	Mercury,	the	rumors	of	a	Bohemian	Rhapsody	sequel	didn’t	seem	that	far	fetched.	Will	they	make	a	Bohemian	Rhapsody	2?	Rami	Malek	|	John	Lamparski/WireImage	Bohemian	Rhapsody‘s	story	could	continue	Mercury	and	Queen’s	story	has	always	been	fascinating
  and	the	filmmakers	did	an	exceptional	job	bringing	it	to	the	screen	last	year	in	Bohemian	Rhapsody.	The	movie	ended	on	a	high	note	with	an	epic	recreation	of	Queen’s	showstopping	Live	Aid	performance	in	1985.	Is	there	more	story	to	tell	though?	By	the	movie’s	end,	Mercury	had	shared	with	his	bandmates	that	he	had	AIDS,	they	reunited	to	perform
  again,	and	the	frontman	had	reconnected	with	Jim	Hutton,	the	man	he	would	live	the	rest	of	his	days	with.	Mercury	also	mended	his	relationship	with	his	family.	What	more	could	a	sequel	cover?	Some	would	argue	that	the	years	following	Live	Aid	as	well	as	the	band’s	continuation	after	Mercury’s	passing	could	fill	a	second	movie.	Bohemian	Rhapsody
  ended	with	this	statement:	“Freddie	Mercury	died	of	AIDS-related	pneumonia	on	the	24th	November	1991.	He	was	45	years	old.”	Additionally,	Bohemian	Rhapsody	was	nominated	for	Best	Picture,	won	four	Oscars,	and	was	the	highest-grossing	music	biopic	ever,	earning	$850	million,	so	a	sequel	could	be	a	successful	endeavor.	Rumors	of	a	Bohemian
  Rhapsody	2	make	the	rounds	According	to	a	Page	Six	exclusive,	Rudi	Dolezal,	a	director	of	dozens	of	Queen’s	music	videos	noted	that	the	sequel	was	“being	heavily	discussed	in	the	Queen	family.”	Dolezal	shared	of	Queen’s	manager	Jim	Beach:	“I’m	sure	he	plans	a	sequel	that	starts	with	Live	Aid.”	The	music	video	director	teamed	up	with	Queen
  around	the	time	of	the	Live	Aid	performance	and	went	on	to	do	30	videos	for	the	band	and	its	members,	including	Mercury’s	“These	are	the	Days	of	Our	Lives”	in	1991.	Mercury	died	that	same	year.	Dolezal’s	comment	about	a	sequel	seemed	to	support	Queen	guitarist	Brian	May	hinting	at	a	followup,	as	he	noted	last	year,	“I	think	Live	Aid	is	a	good
  point	to	leave	it.	Who	knows,	there	might	be	a	sequel.”	Page	Six	further	reports	that	Malek	said	he	had	not	heard	anything	about	a	sequel,	nor	had	Queen’s	record	label.	There	will	be	a	special	airing	on	ABC	in	April,	however,	titled	The	Show	Must	Go	On:	The	Queen	+	Adam	Lambert	Story.	Bohemian	Rhapsody	sequel	rumors	are	shut	down	Before	the
  idea	of	Bohemian	Rhapsody	2	got	too	much	hype,	a	publicist	for	producer	Graham	King	said	there	is	no	truth	to	the	Bohemian	Rhapsody	sequel	rumors,	according	to	Slash	Film.	There	is	more	of	Freddie	Mercury’s	story	to	be	told	In	the	absence	of	a	Bohemian	Rhapsody	sequel,	there	is	still	more	of	Mercury’s	story	to	be	told,	as	Dolezal	revealed	that
  he’s	writing	a	book	called	My	Friend,	Freddie	and	plans	to	release	interviews	he	had	with	Mercury	in	a	film	Freddie	Mercury:	In	His	Own	Words.	It's	always	easier	to	learn	a	song	that	you're	already	familiar	with,	so	what	would	be	better	than	to	entertain	yourself	with	your	favorite	holiday	tunes	while	you	practice?	The	following	Christmas	songs	are
  well-known	tunes	that	have	been	arranged	to	sight-read	easily	for	beginner	and	intermediate	pianists.	The	following	sheet	music	is	available	in	printer-friendly	PNG	or	JPEG	image	formats,	or	may	be	downloaded	as	one	PDF	file	and	comes	pre-packaged	with	lyrics.	This	carol	is	famously	known	as	being	set	to	the	tune	of	the	traditional
  English	Greensleeves.	Written	in	the	key	of	F#	minor,	this	original	arrangement	travels	the	octaves	and	experiments	with	texture,	so	it	works	best	as	a	solo	piano	piece,	but	lyrics	have	still	been	included:	This	is	a	tranquil	D	major	arrangement	of	the	beloved	Austrian	classic,	Stille	Nacht,	and	a	worldwide	favorite.	The	sheet	music	includes	English	and
  German	lyrics	and	is	suitable	for	any	playing-level:	Another	worldwide	favorite	that's	also	known	as	Adeste	Fideles,	this	chord-based	version	in	G	major	is	simple	and	to-the-point.	The	lyrics	below	are	available	in	Latin,	English,	French,	Spanish	and	German:	Learn	this	calm,	yet	bright	arrangement	of	the	carol's	popular	Mueller	variation,	set	in	the	key
  of	D	major.	Perfect	for	the	intermediate	pianist	or	the	beginner	pianist	who	is	comfortable	with	rhythm	in	the	bass:	Choose	from	two	playing	levels	of	this	English	carol:	A	simple	arrangement,	designed	for	the	beginner	or	as	a	background	for	vocals,	and	an	elaborate,	intermediate	tune	which	boasts	fuller	chords	and	a	bit	more	rhythmic	freedom.	Both
  versions	are	written	in	the	key	of	D	major:	“The	First	Noel”		Sheet	Music	&	History	Chord	Progression	&	English	Lyrics	This	may	be	the	most	mysterious-sounding	of	all	the	Christmas	carols.	In	this	arrangement,	the	bass	line	is	simple	to	bring	out	the	medieval	qualities	of	its	melody,	so	it's	appropriate	for	all	skill	levels.	This	arrangement	is	written	in
  the	key	of	E	minor:	A	wintery	ode	to	the	evergreen,	this	tune	originated	in	Germany	and	went	on	to	become	one	of	the	most	recognizable	Christmas	songs	the	world	over.	Choose	between	a	simple	piano/vocal	score	and	an	intermediate	arrangement	with	more	frills.	Both	of	these	scores	are	written	in	the	key	of	F	major:	“O	Tannenbaum”		Sheet	Music
  &	History	Chord	Progression	&	Bilingual	Lyrics	This	peaceful,	triumphant	carol	is	among	the	most	beloved	in	the	Anglosphere	as	well	as	in	French-speaking	areas,	where	it	began.	This	slightly	elaborate	yet	calm	arrangement	is	written	in	the	key	of	F	major	and	includes	lyrics	in	both	French	and	English:	“O	Holy	Night”		Sheet	Music	&	History	Chord
  Progression	&	Bilingual	Lyrics	Playing	the	piano	can	be	an	enjoyable	experience,	no	matter	your	level	of	expertise.	When	playing	the	piano,	several	different	pieces	of	information	come	together	to	create	the	music	that	you	hear.	Muscle	coordination	and	dexterity	allow	pianists	to	play	with	different	dynamics,	articulations,	and	speeds.		Music	symbols
  are	helpful	tools	in	music	notation	that	allow	the	composer	to	express	how	the	music	should	sound.	Note	pitch,	rhythm,	articulation	and	dynamic	are	a	few	of	the	many	symbols	used	in	a	composition	that	indicate	how	to	play	the	music.		The	vertical	position	of	note	heads	on	the	staff	denotes	pitch,	while	the	duration	of	a	note’s	sound	is	expressed	with
  note	color,	note	stems,	and	stem	flags.		In	music,	notes	indicate	sound.	But	sometimes,	silence	is	a	part	of	music	too.	A	music	rest	is	a	symbol	that	represents	silence	or	the	absence	of	a	music	note.	Similar	to	music	notes,	music	rests	are	written	in	various	styles	to	show	their	different	rhythmic	lengths.	An	accidental	is	a	musical	symbol	placed	beside	a
  note	that	creates	a	change	in	the	note's	pitch.	Accidentals	include	sharps,	flats,	and	naturals.	Double-accidentals	include	the	double-sharp	and	double-flat.	Learn	about	the	different	types	of	music	accidentals	in	order	to	identify	them	correctly.	The	key	signature	is	a	series	of	accidentals	written	at	the	beginning	of	a	music	staff	and	is	used	to	express
  the	key	in	which	a	song	is	written.	In	other	words,	it	tells	you	which	notes	will	have	sharps	or	flats	throughout	a	musical	composition.	Key	signatures	can	have	single	or	multiple	sharps	or	flats.		The	time	signature	looks	like	a	fraction	and	appears	at	the	beginning	of	a	piece	of	music.	Time	signatures	organize	beats	into	measures	and	work	alongside
  the	tempo	to	create	the	rhythm	of	a	song.	Sometimes,	a	single	piece	of	music	can	contain	several	time	signatures,	indicating	a	change	in	the	beat	structure.		The	tempo	defines	the	speed	of	the	music	and	is	measured	by	the	beats	per	minute	(BPM).	The	BPM	of	a	song	may	be	written	using	metronome	marks	or	Italian	tempo	terms	that	are	closely
  associated	with	a	metronome	range.	Some	music	pieces	detail	a	precise	metronome	marking,	while	others	use	a	broad	command.	An	understanding	of	both	tempo	and	BPM	is	helpful	in	music	performance.		Symbols	and	lines	placed	around	noteheads	and	note	groups	change	the	way	they	sound	and	create	a	relationship	with	the	surrounding	notes.
  This	concept	is	called	“articulation,”	and	is	modified	in	piano	music	using	a	variety	of	articulation	marks.	Note	ornaments	are	used	to	simplify	the	notation	of	certain	techniques,	which	would	otherwise	complicate	and	crowd	the	sheet	music.	For	example,	a	glissando	is	when	you	run	your	finger	across	the	entire	keyboard,	hitting	every	note	along	the
  way.	To	write	this	out	in	notation	would	be	tedious	for	the	composer	and	the	pianist.	Instead,	note	ornaments	and	embellishments	help	abbreviate	the	notation	of	the	desired	effect.	Musical	dynamics	control	the	volume	of	a	song	and	may	be	signified	by	words,	symbols	or	both.	Dynamics	mark	the	relative	changes	in	intensity	and	do	not	express
  precise	decibel	levels.	Understanding	the	various	dynamic	and	volume	commands	help	bring	expressive	volume	elements	to	the	music.		A	repeat	bar	is	a	musical	symbol	that	resembles	a	final	barline	with	two	dots	in	the	middle	staff	spaces.	A	passage	written	between	two	repeat	bars	will	be	played	at	least	two	times,	and	any	variant	of	this	will	be
  explained	using	volta	brackets,	or	“time	bars.”	Repeat	signs	and	volta	brackets	are	common	commands	in	music	composition.			Segno	and	coda	marks	belong	to	a	system	used	to	express	complex	repetitions	which	cannot	be	expressed	using	simple	repeat	barlines.	They	may	seem	tricky	at	first,	but	rest	assured,	they	make	sheet	music	much	simpler
  and	at	times	can	help	avoid	several	page-turns.	Navigating	segno	and	coda	marks	becomes	simple	once	they	are	familiar.	Musical	symbols	such	as	8va	and	15ma	indicate	that	a	note	or	passage	will	be	played	in	a	different	octave	than	in	the	one	they	are	written.	These	commands	make	it	easier	to	read	very	high	or	low	notes	that	would	otherwise	be
  written	using	ledger	lines.	Learn	to	recognize	these	common	octave	commands.	Learning	how	to	play	piano	may	take	time	but	is	manageable	with	proper	training.	While	it	is	possible	to	learn	how	to	play	by	ear,	it	is	important	for	beginners	to	get	familiar	with	music	notes	by	practicing	pitch	and	keys	off	of	sheet	music,	instructional	books	or	online
  learning	tools.	This	will	go	hand	in	hand	with	understanding	piano	keys	and	practicing	classic	basics	like	"Do-Re-Mi."	One	trick	to	learning	piano	is	by	playing	easier	songs,	such	as	Christmas	carols,	children's	songs	or	music	that	you	love	and	are	passionate	about.	Understanding	and	practicing	sheet	music	for	piano	beginners	may	be	a	challenge	at
  first	but	is	a	must	in	order	to	achieve	playing	piano	at	an	intermediate	level	and	beyond	in	the	long	run.	Some	basic	piano	knowledge	to	understand	is	as	follows:	The	Staff:	The	set	of	five	horizontal	lines	and	four	spaces	representing	a	musical	pitch.	Treble	Clef:	The	music	symbol	known	as	the	G	clef,	located	above	middle	C	on	the	second-lowest	line
  of	the	staff.	Bass	Clef:	The	symbol	of	music	on	the	fourth	line	of	the	staff	indicating	that	it	relates	to	the	F	next	below	middle	C.	Music	Notes:	Notes	are	signs	used	in	music	to	represent	the	duration	and	pitch	of	a	sound.	Chords:	Chords	include	a	group	of	notes	together	as	a	form	of	harmony.	Often,	there	are	two	or	three	or	more	chords	in	music	which
  sound	simultaneous	together.	Scales:	A	scale	is	a	set	of	musical	notes	ordered	by	frequency	or	pitch.	In	piano,	there	are	12	keys	in	an	octave;	thus,	there	are	36	scales	total	unless	you	are	adding	chromatic	scales,	which	would	total	to	48	scales.	Finger	Placement:	How	your	fingers	rest	on	specific	keys.	The	correct	hand	position	for	piano	depends	on
  the	type	of	finger.	For	example,	the	thumb	finger	may	go	on	middle	C.	The	above	music	sheets	are	from	8Notes.com.	Visit	them	for	more	music	sheets.
