I love it more than the original song!!! It’s lovely and so sentimental !!! Playing like this is like my mission impossible !! BRAVO and thank you for sharing
I am now 78 yrs old and I’m awe of those playing piano. I also wanted to learn but as the son of a widow with five children it was not an option. When I was a child and heard piano on the radio I would find any surface, pretend it was a piano and pretend that it was me playing.
I think I know what you are talking about as two of us were raised by a single mom. So you are not alone there, for most people, musical lessons are such a privilege. I still dream of learning how to play cello when I have enough money and time ;) Hopefully, I could still move my fingers then.
You inspired me to play piano. I’m 12 years old, and i’m now taking lessons because of you. You inspire so many people and I hope you realize that. You make a difference in people’s lives. You’re amazing :)
@sksks sksks NEVER QUIT! I've met so many adults who wish they knew how to play or those who regretted quitting, but I've yet to meet even one who regretted learning to play. I know many who learned and don't play. They're sad busy bitter people who forgot how to have fun. Learn to play and never stop playing. Music heals soul, and in our amazing but occasionally broken world we could always use more healing.
I dreamed a dream in times gone by When hope was high and life worth living I dreamed, that love would never die I dreamed that God would be forgiving Then I was young and unafraid And dreams were made and used and wasted There was no ransom to be paid No song unsung, no wine untasted But the tigers come at night With their voices soft as thunder As they tear your hope apart As they turn your dream to shame He slept a summer by my side He filled my days with endless wonder He took my childhood in his stride But he was gone when autumn came And still I dream he'll come to me That we will live the years together But there are dreams that cannot be And there are storms we cannot weather I had a dream my life would be So different from this hell I'm living So different now from what it seemed Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
You all can as a piano player myself it’s not impossible and it feels so good to play the pieces you love the way that feels great expression is king in this world.
Cannot believe how good this pianist is, he manages to take a beautiful great classical music pieces and brings out the best sounds from his piano! totally impressed by this young performer! Bravo
I've just came out of hospital after medical complications from a miscarriage, and this video just made me feel euphoric! Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful hard work and talent, you gave me goosebumps and reminded me that life can be beautiful X
This is the definition of ability, perfection, satisfaction, competence and music. I admire you and you inspire me. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world.
I realize each pianist is unique but this guy's playing style makes me remember the grand old days of the great entertainer Władziu Valentino Liberace and his pioneering television show that my entire family enjoyed each week when I was a child.
I played this song as a child in a piano recital and found the sheet music today. I cringed remembering playing it as a happy march- it didn't have lyrics- and I thought, "I bet Francesco Parrino has a more advanced arrangement of this" you never disappoint!!!
I love how powerful and absolutely gorgeous he makes very arrangement. Insanely talented. He has a real gift. This is the most beautiful arrangement of this song I’ve ever heard....
Absolutely beautiful and incredibly moving!!! This gives me chills, goosebumps, & brings tears to my eyes. You are truly gifted! Thank you for sharing your gift with us!
LYRICS :) I dreamed a dream in times gone by When hope was high and life worth living I dreamed, that love would never die I dreamed that God would be forgiving Then I was young and unafraid And dreams were made and used and wasted There was no ransom to be paid No song unsung, no wine untasted But the tigers come at night With their voices soft as thunder As they tear your hope apart As they turn your dream to shame He slept a summer by my side He filled my days with endless wonder He took my childhood in his stride But he was gone when autumn came And still I dream he'll come to me That we will live the years together But there are dreams that cannot be And there are storms we cannot weather I had a dream my life would be So different from this hell I'm living So different now from what it seemed Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
This was probably the most complicated piece you've put together and your usual emotional expression is obviously subdued by your concentration. You should be incredibly proud at the level you've achieved. I'm finding it incredibly hard to download your sheet musics and learn them.
Todas tus interpretaciones son maravillosas! Eres un pianista extraordinario! Es un privilegio escucharte! Gracias por tanto! Un abrazo desde Tucumán (una ciudad de Argentina)
I'm absolutely nuts about this song. I wait for it to come up whenever I listen to the 25th anniversary of Les Mis. It does even more for me when you play it, using your wonderful hands. BRAVO, My Friend !!
I get goose bumps to see and hear you play. You send very well! We notice watching you with the passion and love you feel when you touch. Dude we love you! It's great to watch your videos.
There was a time when men were kind When their voices were soft And their words inviting There was a time when love was blind And the world was a song And the song was exciting There was a time Then it all went wrong I dreamed a dream in times gone by When hope was high and life worth living I dreamed, that love would never die I dreamed that God would be forgiving Then I was young and unafraid And dreams were made and used and wasted There was no ransom to be paid No song unsung, no wine untasted But the tigers come at night With their voices soft as thunder As they tear your hope apart As they turn your dream to shame He slept a summer by my side He filled my days with endless wonder He took my childhood in his stride But he was gone when autumn came And still I dream he'll come to me That we will live the years together But there are dreams that cannot be And there are storms we cannot weather I had a dream my life would be So different from this hell I'm living So different now from what it seemed Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
I have been watching videos on TH-cam for over 10 years...THIS is the FINEST Thing I have EVER seen! I have lost track of how many times I have enjoyed it Everyone I know, has received a link to THIS
You are one of the most talented people I have heard on the piano keyboard . The style in which you play , I can hear the vocalist and the whole accompaniment of an orchestra in this piece . Simply amazing !!
La cosa meravigliosa di te é che non hai bisogno di leggere gli partiture, che la tastiera la conosce a memoria e le canzoni sono nella tua testa tutte, tutte.... Questo mi stupisce da te.....Bravo Francesco 👏
When I learned there was to be a movie version of this incredible musical theatre I was unsure about the decision. But when I heard Anne Hathaway singing it I was absolutely overawed. She was flawless, I wept listening to her. I have the same reaction listening to your piano rendition, you are truly gifted. I can easily imagine you performing this with an orchestra. Thank you.
Wonderful musical, really an opera, and marvelous cover; you really capture the romanticism and the drama of the piece. And thanks for making your sheet music so easily available.
As said before your talent is amazing.I just love your playing and just noticed no music in front of you.Marvellous and could listen all night to you.thank you xx
I love singing this song...but when I listen to this, I can’t sing because I feel like I will ruin it because it’s absolutely PERFECT ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I wish I could visit Italy just to personally tell you that your soul-touching content is what makes life beautiful. Thank you so much for existing and showing your passion to the world. You’re awesome. Stay safe 🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️🙏🏼
Extraordinarily beautiful!!! It's hard to find words to describe all the emotions and feelings. It's like the flight of the soul! I am sure that many times I will return to this video to listen and enjoy more and more! Thank you very much Francesco! You're a wizard!)) Every your video as balm for ears and souls!!! Once again, thank you so much!
I love the entire Les Miserables soundtrack, have listened to it over and over again, and this arrangement is super fantastic. I wish I could give you more than one thumb up per video.
Hi Francesco. Happy New Year. 202.Thank You for your amazing perfect stunning panio playing. A faviourate musical of mine. God continue to bless you & your musical gift. Thanks for sharing & putting a huge smile on my face. Debbie Hope

Francesco Parrino I really like your passion as you play not like Lang Lang which I find him too extreme
I love it more than the original song!!! It’s lovely and so sentimental !!! Playing like this is like my mission impossible !! BRAVO and thank you for sharing

You're never too old to learn to play or do what you want. Give it a try!
Oh what songs your heart must hide. May God see them played on Heaven.
You should really give it a try! The piano is such a beautiful intrument, and it's never too late to start learning.
You inspired me to play piano. I’m 12 years old, and i’m now taking lessons because of you. You inspire so many people and I hope you realize that. You make a difference in people’s lives. You’re amazing :)
sksks sksks AWESOME! Inspiration is ALL it takes. Best of Luck to you, can’t wait to see videos from you. I’m a pianist now for 37 years.
Thank you!✨🎹😊
How are you doing? still playing?
@sksks sksks NEVER QUIT! I've met so many adults who wish they knew how to play or those who regretted quitting, but I've yet to meet even one who regretted learning to play. I know many who learned and don't play. They're sad busy bitter people who forgot how to have fun. Learn to play and never stop playing. Music heals soul, and in our amazing but occasionally broken world we could always use more healing.
keep it up! it's a great skill that you can enjoy for a lifetime (whether you're a concert pianist or not)
I dreamed a dream in times gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed, that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame
He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came
And still I dream he'll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream
I dreamed
I dreamed a dream that I could play this!
Yeah me too!
Same here
Same here, haha
Just start learning the piano and keep practicing hard then you will achieve your dream 👌
You all can as a piano player myself it’s not impossible and it feels so good to play the pieces you love the way that feels great expression is king in this world.
Que c est beau
What can one say to this but Yes, Yes, Yes. And words like Brilliant and Perfect and Thank-you.

April 4, 2020, 10pm. Listening to this as I walk my dog through the quiet streets of Sandusky, Ohio. THE best part of my day.
You are beautiful! I have no words. Thank you for sharing your beautiful gift of music!
Can't get much better than this! He loves perfection. You can see it in every facial expression and movement of his body.
He plays beautiful..gift from God...many blessings to him and his amazing fingers
I didn’t make it to the one minute mark before I was crying. Beautiful and thank you.
Simp :P

LYRICS :)
I dreamed a dream in times gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed, that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame
He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came
And still I dream he'll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream
I dreamed
How has this man learned to play the piano so skillfully that it left me in awe and amazement!?
Simply beautiful rendition. I wish your playing didnt end.
All your years of practice clearly shows. I for one amd glad you stuck with it
Bravo!
Had me in tears. Absolutely incredible.
Francesco. You dreamed a dream and it came true with your hard work and now you are living it.❤😊😊
Mesmerizing
Tonal control is EXCELLENT! BRAVO!
This was probably the most complicated piece you've put together and your usual emotional expression is obviously subdued by your concentration. You should be incredibly proud at the level you've achieved. I'm finding it incredibly hard to download your sheet musics and learn them.
I find them easy to download and not hard to learn as the notes lie so naturally under the fingers, at least for classically trained pianists.
I thought "I will Follow Him" would be your best then you give us this. WoW, Just WoW.
Todas tus interpretaciones son maravillosas! Eres un pianista extraordinario! Es un privilegio escucharte! Gracias por tanto! Un abrazo desde Tucumán (una ciudad de Argentina)
Watching him stroke the keys is mesmerizing. Such talent!
I'm absolutely nuts about this song. I wait for it to come up whenever I listen to the 25th anniversary of Les Mis. It does even more for me when you play it, using your wonderful hands. BRAVO, My Friend !!
Francesco. You had the dream and you are living it.❤😊😊
I could never hear this too many times. Your talent is wonderful!
Absolutely melodic. I’m speechless! I’ve loved this song since seeing it in Les Misérables and since Susan Boyle sang it. Amazing piano cover!
This arrangement is, RICH!
O Virtuoso e belo, FRANCESCO PARRINO, me levou as lagrimas com DREAMED A DREAM. bravissimo, sucesso
B R A V O !!!!!! Jesus forgave me, saved me and made me new. Hallelujah INDEED!
C'est Divin ! et quel beau garçon…….un plaisir à entendre et à voir ! Tu es Magique ! Merci !
I get goose bumps to see and hear you play. You send very well! We notice watching you with the passion and love you feel when you touch. Dude we love you! It's great to watch your videos.
There was a time when men were kind
When their voices were soft
And their words inviting
There was a time when love was blind
And the world was a song
And the song was exciting
There was a time
Then it all went wrong
I dreamed a dream in times gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed, that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame
He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came
And still I dream he'll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream
I dreamed
Herbert Kretzmers lyrics are his legacy to us all. RIP Herbert
