Bohemian Rhapsody Piano Playin'

hi, could anyone here help me out on a problem, that is anyone who can play the piano, on the intro of bohemian rhapsody how do you play it, i know the opening is b b b b b g, but where do all the other fingers go when playing to get the right sound, if anyone could tell me this that would be great, thanks

First of all, by "intro" do you mean the part where the piano starts to play, right before Freddie sings "Mama..."?

Secondly, what is "b b b b b g" Are those supposed to be pitches or what?

yes,that's the part. b b b b b g are the notes, well that's what i heard anyway

According to this choral arrangement I have, the intro is

LEFT HAND: Bb LEFT HAND: G,F (octaves)
RIGHT HAND: D,G,Bb,D

Etc. So forth. Does that help?

thanks, but does that mean you only do the left hand notes and then the right hand, also what is meant by Bb, is that both B's or just the black key. and are the octaves the black keys?
cheers

Does anyone know of any sheet music of JUST the piano accompaniment? Not an arrangement like in the Queen piano sheet music books, but the actually accompaniment?

The actualy piano part is included in the full score found in the Greatest Hits: Off the Record book, which is out of print, but available on eBay. It's really the greatest book of popular sheetmusic I've ever seen.

actually it's RIGHT HAND: D F Bb D

If you cant play the piano at all supernova190188, you need a piano teach yourself book to learn the basic chhords. For none piano players, BoRhap is a lot harder to play than it initially looks. You can get loads of BoRhap sheet music online if you just type it into your search engine. Well not really sheet music but the chords alongside the lyrics.

Thanks! I'm trying to look for it now.

Does it have the actual piano parts for all the other songs as well?

you will fing that at the beging i think the chords have got diminished or rased upper notes. not sure though. where can you get the sheet music from and can you get it orcestrated for a band or is it just on two clefs.

It has all the actual parts for all the songs. So you get all the real piano parts, all the real guitar parts, all the real drum parts, etc.

There are 5 books in this series:
Greatest Hits
Greatest Hits II
Classic Queen
Queen
Innunendo

They are excellent books, and because they are not in print anymore, I suggest you try to aquire them as soon as you can if you are interested.

In the left hand, an octave of Bb. In the right hand F, Bb, D . Play simultaneously, and then "bling bling" which is G to F one and a half octaves above middle C. Voila!

Mr Bad Gut,

Thanks for the correction :-) *bows*

Here are some Bohemian Rhapsody sheet music for piano. But the intro isn't there :(
It starts with "Is this the real life?"
