"After more than 2 years since my last Beatles arrangement, (I released "Yesterday" in June of 2019) it's finally time for another! If all goes as planned, it will be a much shorter wait for the next one!
Many, many years ago, while I was still completing my undergraduate degree, I arrived to sight-singing class on a "brisk" Arizona winter morning. It was about 50 degrees and you could see the steam rising from my morning Starbucks... a rare sight in Arizona. A graduate student was teaching this singing course, and I had been assigned as her pianist for the semester. In typical Charles fashion I was early... so early on this particular morning that I had more than 15 minutes alone on the upright piano in the classroom. I was just playing around, improvising here and there, and for some reason came upon Across the Universe as I was musically "walking" through harmonies. Since that morning, around 15 years ago, I have remembered what I played. I even performed this arrangement at a small concert 2 years ago from a lead sheet I had quickly written up.
This past month I finally got around to notating the sheet music and making a real recording. This is the first Beatles arrangement of many more to come, I hope you enjoy!"

This is so beautiful. Please do more beatles covers
Dean, you’ll be happy to know there are more coming early in the new year!!
Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind
Possessing and caressing me
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes
They call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a restless wind
Inside a letter box they
Tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Sounds of laughter shades of life are ringing
Through my open ears inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns
And calls me on and on across the universe
Jai guru deva om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Jai guru deva

I'm just learning piano this is my first try at music so I am trying piano at 65 . I listen to you think your brilliant just wish you could bring out books on learning piano for beginners anyway love your stuff
Best wishes for your music journey! Thanks for listening to my stuff! I haven’t written anything beginner or much that’s intermediate, but you might enjoy looking through my other channel, Pianist Academy, where I teach a ton of different piano concepts: youtube.com/@PianistAcademy1?si=iq3UOA0ZhYjwmfnP
Wow. I wish I checked when this was posted! Three-days-ago-me was missing OUT. This is by far the best version I’ve ever heard. Thank you as always for posting such beautiful interpretations of my favorite songs! What an amazing cover. I love how the last chorus progresses. Wonderful!
Thanks, Suzanne! I'm glad you got to this one, and 3 days isn't all that long haha!
Among many other John Lennon masterpieces...this song along is a classic that forces my mind, and maybe yours, to imagine something beautiful and wonderful soaring across the vast distances of the universe. The melody and lyrics are absolute "sheer genius."
I agree! And btw, love your screen name “SunKing” 😁
Thank you...I have 11 email accounts and all of them except one...is the title of a Beatles song. I was 11 when they first appeared on Ed Sullivan Show Feb. 9, 1964. The Beatles have been an important part of my 70 years. I love your version of Across the Universe!@@CharlesSzczepanek
As always brilliant so so good
I've always liked this melody! Nice job!
Ciao fenomeno sto provando un piacere immenso ascoltando questi brani 😊👍
Love it
Thanks! And thanks for finding your way around the channel!
So beautiful!🤗
Thank you, Daisy!
Love this arrangement! Thank you, to musicnotes I go!!!
Thanks!
Simply incredible. Thank you for recording this.
You bet! Thanks for listening!
Bravo Sir keep it up!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed this one and I hope you check out my other Beatles arrangements!
such a beautiful version of my favorite Beatles song, thank you
Thanks so much, Andy! Hope you'll check out my other Beatles' covers as well :-)
An other good moment with you with passion and tenderness - beautiful sound - Beautiful hands on the piano - ambiance to dream
Thanks for checking this out on the first day! Glad you enjoyed!
Beautiful cover! Love the arrangement, and you played it superbly! I'm surprised this doesn't yet have more views and likes!
Thanks so much, Matthew! I hope you'll check out a few of the other Beatles' arrangements I've done on the channel as well 🙂
Yet another stunningly beautiful arrangement.
I think you've become the most interesting pianist on UA-cam to listen to. Given the competition, that's quite some achievement!
Thanks, Graham! I try to keep the styles changing. Glad you enjoy most or all of them!
Another fantastic cover. As another fan our yours put it...one of the most interesting piano musicians on UA-cam. Given the competition, that's saying something.
Haha thanks, Eric. Glad you like my takes on these great tunes!
Fantastic piano playing of this classic Beatles' tune!
Thank you!
@@CharlesSzczepanek
Credit where credit is deserved, Charles!
Have a Great New Year to You and All Your Family!
This used to be my favorite Beatles song :) I love how much feeling and passion you put into it
Thanks! Which is your favorite Beatles song now?? I have a few more Beatles covers coming out in the new year!
@@CharlesSzczepanek So hard to pick one, I'd have to say In My Life but several come very close to favorite: While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Here Comes the Sun, I've Just Seen a Face, and I Wanna Hold Your Hand.
@@AlexandraNMorgan you have great taste! I’ll let you in on a secret: I’ve written, but not yet recorded, arrangements of Lady Madonna and In My Life!! I was thinking I’d do an arrangement of Get Back, but I’ve Just Seen a Face is sooo good! Maybe I’ll do that one!
@@CharlesSzczepanek can't wait to hear those two recordings once you do them. I would love to hear I've Just Seen a Face if you decide to record that one.
Incredibly beautiful!! If I weren't so manly I might've shed a tear. 😑
Haha, thanks!
Go ahead, man. I shed a few tears watching "Now and Then." That tune and video reached deep into my 70 yo soul. My love for the Beatles and their music...will be with me until I'm gone.
