Reuel Releases Für Elise

Karen — Mon, 24 Jun 2019 19:42:01 +0000

Classical crossover artist and virtuoso pianist Reuel just premiered his video with his marvelous take on Beethoven’s Für Elise.

Reuel loves to stretch the imagination of audiences with medley arrangements, original compositions – and now he treats us with his new release of the reimagined solo piano arrangement of Beethoven’s Für Elise. The track is from Classical, his recent album of famous classical music themes arranged, and in some cases extensively reimagined, for solo piano. His new upcoming album Transformation album will spotlight original music that combines electronic dance tracks with piano melodies played in a classical style and will be released in September.

Filmed with Lucky Hound Music and 484 Artist Management.

Where did Reuel get his inspiration for his scintillating, virtuosic version of Beethoven’s beloved Bagatelle in A Minor? According to Reuel: “Almost every one of us, if we studied piano at all, played this beautiful composition, popularly titled “Für Elise,” at one time or another… As a pianist, I have always dreamed of rearranging Beethoven’s iconic melody ‘Für Elise’ in a more advanced classical style. This presto version begins in familiar territory and expands each part of the original composition in a Theme & Variations structure with virtuosic and modernized piano arrangements.”
