ABOUT THE CHANNEL:
Hi! My name is Mateo, I'm a professional musical theatre composer, splitting my time between Toronto & NYC right now.
On Thursdays on this channel, I post a video analyzing the music theory behind some of the great Broadway musicals of all time! In the past, I've analyzed works by Sondheim, Jason Robert Brown, Pasek & Paul, Jeanine Tesori, and Stephen Schwartz, just to name a few.
On Sundays on this channel, I post a video update of the progress I'm making on my writing projects, so you can follow along with the process as I create new musicals from scratch.
On Tuesdays on this channel, I post a video reacting to a performance by a star of musical theatre, discussing what makes them so amazing. I recently recorded a video reacting to Aaron Tveit being cast in Sweeney Todd, despite the fact that he's not a baritone.

I love this song, even tho the rest of Love Never Dies should have never been written.
I didn't know about the concept of borrowing a note from a different scale until watching your videos, so I've always mentally registered that part as a temporary key modulation of some sort (which isn't quite far off, but not entirely accurate). And it's fascinating to read the sheet music after your explanation. The "dream" parts of the lyrics and the "wake" parts of the lyrics, where he goes back and forth on, definitely lines up with the borrowed note / back to original note in scale part in the music.
The last part is quite interesting too. I am going to over-read into it and say, if the Phantom is willing, his strong will and determination will bring the chaos back into order as long as he can hold on to it.
This is one of the best songs ever written for a musical!!! You have to watch the DVD of the Australian production. It's fantastic!!!
So happy to see new videos from you! Don"t know what happened, but hope you're doing well. Wonderful analysis as usual 🧡
Very interesting. I was a music major in college for a while and loved parsing music like this.
Could you react to Jordan Fisher on hadestown! He has baritone qualities singing a pretty high tenor song so I would love to see your thoughts! You're amazing!
