Beethoven Ode To Joy Very Easy Piano Tutorial

In this very easy piano tutorial, you will learn how to play the song, Ode To Joy by Beethoven. As usual, I have kept it very simple for the absolute beginner. I start by playing the entire song first of all, followed by the right hand and left hand parts separately. You will learn how to play the melody with the right hand and single notes with the left hand. The notes are included below.

By the way, this song has the same melody as the gospel song, “Joyful Joyful We Adore Thee” aka “The Hymn Of Joy” by Henry van Dyke. The basic melody of Ode To Joy (by Ludwig van Beethoven) was adapted for this hymn, as well as for the songs “A Song of Joy” by Miguel Ríos, and “Road to Joy” by Bright Eyes.
