Free Sheet Music | Chopsticks for Easy Piano

February 5th, 2010 by admin

Our free resource music site, MakingMusicFun.net, features premium sheet music that bridges the gap between children’s technical skills and musical aesthetics. We call our sheet music arrangements “premium” because each piece that finds it’s way on this site meets a very high standard – it must be as good or better than anything available – not just on the web – but anywhere.

The Celebrated Chop Waltz, also known as Chopsticks, was first published in 1877 under the pseudonym Arthur de Lull. Its actual composer was Euphemia Allen, a 16 years old girl. Her instructions were to play the melody and its single note harmony with a chopping action, hands turned sideways.
