Wishing my grandfather is somehow here again who died a year and a half ago. Every night before I went to sleep, I sang and played to him songs from this musical, including The Music of the Night(btw, I'm singer and piano player). He was very, very happy then because he adored this musical, even he didn't know a word from this musical because he had never learned English, but he was touched by the music (and by the words after I translated to him into our mother tongue-Croatian)After he died, I kept singing and playing it and I hope he can hear me, wherever he is now. Cograts for your wonderful performanse. Greetings from Croatia!
when i first started playing piano, my grandma prompted me to learn this song. i was so young, weak in my skills, and the piece was much more difficult than anything else i had played before. but i took up the challenge regardless. i worked tirelessly on the chords, rhythms, i practiced so much to the point where i had it memorized. it may have taken me months, years, but its my pride and joy. but it didnt matter. by the time i had it mastered, my grandma had already passed away, and she never got to play it for her. since then, this song is a tribute to her. she’s listening to me from in the stars as i try to let her hear me, i know, i know. i’ll continue to play for everyone and anyone, striving to reach all i can with my music - just never my grammy, not anymore.
Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation Darkness stirs and wakes imagination Silently the senses abandon their defenses Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendor Grasp it, sense it tremulous and tender Turn your face away from the garish light of day Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light And listen to the music of the night Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar And you'll live as you've never lived before Softly, deftly music shall caress you Hear it, feel it secretly possess you Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind In this darkness that you know you cannot fight The darkness of the music of the night Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before Let your soul take you where you long to be Only then can you belong to me Floating, falling sweet intoxication Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in To the power of the music that I write The power of the music of the night You alone can make my song take flight Help me make the music of the night
Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation Darkness wakes and stirs imagination Silently, the senses abandon their defenses Helpless to resist the notes I write For I compose the music of the night Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender Hearing is believing, music is deceiving Hard as lightening, soft as candlelight Dare you trust the music of the night? Close your eyes for your eyes will only tell the truth And the truth isn't what you want to see In the dark it is easy to pretend That the truth is what it ought to be Softly, deftly, music shall caress you Hear it, feel it secretly possess you Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind In this darkness which you know you cannot fight The darkness of the music of the night Close your eyes Start a journey to a strange new world Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before Close your eyes and let music set you free Only then can you belong to me Floating, falling, sweet intoxication Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in To the power of the music that I write The power of the music of the night You alone can make my song take flight Help me make the music of the night
How did you learn your great piano skills? I'm a pianist too, but not a very good one and I would like to learn to be as great as you. I also enjoy listening to your piano music, especially the Phantom of the Opera ones.
thank you! I was taught by an ex-Yamaha teacher when I was younger, taking ABRSM exams up to grade 8. But my greatest improvement came when I had the serendipitous fortune to study with the late Mr Peter Cooper, a New Zealand pianist who stayed in Singapore for a while. I guess my advice is to always listen to yourself when you play, and get to know how to vary your sound with different striking velocities, finger strength, arm strength, etc.
I have this arrangement. It's in Andrew Lloyd Webber: the Essential Collection. Published by Hal Leonard, (c) 1995. www.amazon.com/Essential-Andrew-Lloyd-Webber-Collection/dp/0634001604
I agree that really the song should be moving on more steadily and progressively. Personally I think that this is beautiful as more of a solo-piano interpretation but I see where you're coming from
hi, I play from the official piano/vocal songbook. It seems to be called the 'Souvenir Edition' now: www.amazon.com/Phantom-Opera-Souvenir-Selections-Melody/dp/0881886157/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1473060448&sr=1-1&keywords=phantom+of+the+opera+piano

I love how I'm able to fall asleep to any one of these PotO piano songs.
I love how when I put in on loop it just flows from the ending to the beginning
I love this song much more than "all I ask of you " I feel comfort from this beautiful melody especially when my heart is filled with anxiety or fear.
Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses
Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendor
Grasp it, sense it tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night
Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
And you'll live as you've never lived before
Softly, deftly music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness that you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night
Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Only then can you belong to me
Floating, falling sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night
You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night
4:38 Its over now the Music of the Night
haha
_nice one_
charming stunning beautiful
Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness wakes and stirs imagination
Silently, the senses abandon their defenses
Helpless to resist the notes I write
For I compose the music of the night
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Hearing is believing, music is deceiving
Hard as lightening, soft as candlelight
Dare you trust the music of the night?
Close your eyes for your eyes will only tell the truth
And the truth isn't what you want to see
In the dark it is easy to pretend
That the truth is what it ought to be
Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night
Close your eyes
Start a journey to a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Close your eyes and let music set you free
Only then can you belong to me
Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night
You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night
simple but nice soothing
Beautiful
This Sounds Amazing!!! Super Great Job!!!!
One of my favorite's. Jackie Evancho sings a beautiful version of this on her album entitled, "Songs from the Silver Screen".
I really like this version thank you for providing the link for the music book

I loved Ramin's voice so much at the performance of Royal Albert Hall
Uauuu! Lovely!
From Brasil - Rio decJaneiro

WOAH o_o That is freaking incredible!! Is there an official tutorial video for this particular arrangement? :3
Grace R Thank you, there is no tutorial at the moment.
Ah, I see! Thanks :) I've actually got my own partial arrangement stored somewhere :P
I have this arrangement. It's in Andrew Lloyd Webber: the Essential Collection. Published by Hal Leonard, (c) 1995. www.amazon.com/Essential-Andrew-Lloyd-Webber-Collection/dp/0634001604
This is really good, but I wish you'd been more fluid with the tempo to make the song come alive. The playing is wonderful, but it lacks emotion.
I agree that really the song should be moving on more steadily and progressively. Personally I think that this is beautiful as more of a solo-piano interpretation but I see where you're coming from
sheet music ?
Me and my brother are playing this as a duet in a competition 😁
Hey, did you win? XD
Muito agradável de si ouvir
Erik 😭😭
thank you! i wasn't sure about this one 'cos individual notes on a piano are not as expressive as the voice :)
Do you have the sheet music for this?
