My mother taught me to play when I was 8, and she used to play this song so emotionally and so beautifully. I was always in awe of her talent. She is now battling multiple sclerosis and has been mostly unable to play the piano for several years now. I've been trying to find a piano version of this song played with heart and emotion, and yours is just perfection. I have my headphones on, my sound up, and I'm allowing myself to both remember and grieve. Thank you very much for this, from the bottom of my heart. I've avoided piano since her diagnosis because it's a painful reminder, but I miss it. This is what I needed. Thank you 🧡 thank you so much.
the best arrangement I found until now. I'm completely in love for your interpretation, you passed all the passion and vulnerability the phantom did. absolutely incredible. I'll start to study this piece in vacation, I hope I can transmit so much emotions as you did
One of the best musical songs of all time. Absolutely inspired genius by ALW and TR. I sang this incredible song when I was about 12 or 13 at singing competition at my school. I won the competition. The boys at my all boys school started by sniggering and ended by standing up and clapping. The quiet moments were like pin drops. My music teacher nailed the musical interlude - played here just as I remember him playing it. I wish I could go back and just listen to him play. It was really the most perfect day of my school life. I was a shy, relatively unpopular boy. But the moments I cherish the most are with my wonderful nexdoor neighbour. She was a retired teacher. Majestic on the piano. She patiently taught me the song over many weeks. Taught me how to breathe. Taught me how to be so much more than I am. She is no longer with us but she will know how much that moment meant to me. Now at the age of 41, I think I may try and learn it again.
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation Darkness stirs and wakes imagination Silently the senses abandon the 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 all 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 poseess 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 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, folding, sweet intoxication Touch me, trust me, savour 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
I too would like the sheet music for this! I’m still very much a beginner on piano, but I would love to try to play and learn from your arrangement. Your playing is so beautiful & inspiring, it had me in tears! ❤️ I have an emotional connection to Music of the Night, so this was truly special for me. Thank you for sharing it with all of us!
Hi Lani ... just in case you are still interested in the sheet music for this one ... i finally finished it and it's available here: www.musicnotes.com/l/KTxMb
@@PaulHankinsonMusic Ohhh I'm actually shaking, I'm so overwhelmed by gratitude! Thank you so much for replying and for making the sheet music. I'm about to go purchase it right now, I just had to say thank you first! This means so much to me. Edit: Just purchased it and also subscribed.
This arrangement is absolutely amazing I can’t believe it I’ve been singing along tonight. She is so delicate part so strong and others to me out of this world. Thank you very much love from Liverpool United Kingdom #ynwa
Today I registerd your channel. I think your playing has the soul & heart! I impressed deeply. I 've started playing the piano since last 2023 November. Yeah I like it, I love it. Every day I have a big fun of it. Thank you very much for your wonderful piano playing. I will keep up with PIANO!!
Absolutely beautiful! I said something to my daughter the other day about purchasing some of your sheet music. She just looked at me for few seconds and said “Where do you think I got ‘perfect’?” And then named off some others. We definitely would like the sheet music to this.
Haha I love that story, Raylene! Huge thanks to you and your daughter for supporting my work! I just improvised this today (you can see the lyrics on the piano) but I will transcribe it soon for Musicnotes… and you both!
@@PaulHankinsonMusic I’m grateful for people who share your talent (and a little bit envious). At age five I was reading notes. My Mom bought me some beginner/easy music books which I thoroughly enjoyed going through, but I never learned timing, fingering, chords, etc. So I’m just a “plunker”. My girls are a bit more gifted.
Hi Raylene! Just letting you know that the sheet music is finally available for this one, if you and your daughter are still interested: www.musicnotes.com/l/KTxMb
Haha thanks Truus … yes I was surprised when I watched the video back but could not face recording it again … I think the phantom was angry because I was playing music of the night in the morning … he’s very particular … like… don’t sit in box 5 or you’ll be hearing about it until the middle of next week … he really needs to get out more … it can’t have been easy for him though with the opera house being closed due to covid …
How could you play that in the morning 😁 I had my fun when I read it in the description box and you make it because of this kind comments much more personal to us, your viewers. I did that too, when I was making music videos. You give a piece of yourself and get a lot back, even when it is the Phantom anger.
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation. Darkness stirs and wakes imagination. Silently the senses abandon their defences... Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour. Grasp it, sense it tremulous and tender. Turn your face away from the garish light of day, Turn your face away from cold, unfeeling light - and listen to the music of the night... Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams! Leave all thoughts of the world 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 which 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 world 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, savour each sensation! Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in, To the harmony which dreams alone can 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.
Oh thanks Felix! That means a lot! I’m wearing Allure Homme Sport right now … Do you approve? What’s your favourite fragrance? I also like the Jo Malone tonka and myrrh .. hope you’re having a great day … even if you cried ♥️😊
@@PaulHankinsonMusic you know your fragrances! Allure Homme Sport is probably my favorite Chanel fragrance. Great choice, Paul. I did have a great day, thank you, those were tears of joy. I get moved by music really easy.
Thank you so much for sharing the sheet music!!The arrangement & your playing is perfection, just the way it should be. I havent played since highschool 20+ yrs , 5 flats- ouch. Youve inspired me and Im going to give it a go
This is my favorite song. I’ve purchased about 10 of your other songs you play. This is my absolute favorite song can you tell me where to get this exact music you’re playing I just love this
Oh Marian - I'm so happy you love this song - and my version! Thanks so much for buying my sheet music - that means so much to me! It's not just because it helps me buy coffee and broccoli - but it's also reaffirming - that support of my work. This is a song I have been playing for most of my life - you can see in the video I am just reading the lyrics - and I made some notes in pencil about some dynamics and ... a kind of emotional plan I guess.. so this is really just improvised... BUT I did record the midi so that I can notate my arrangement ... transcribe what I played ... and make the sheet music available if somebody wants it ... and you do! So I'll do it soon! I'm so glad you like it! ❤️🌹
@@PaulHankinsonMusic Did you ever get around to making the sheet music for this?? My wife really wants to play it and is making me transcribe it from scratch by watching the video and it's really tedious. Please save me and tell me you have the sheet music somewhere!!!
I was just listening to this again and I reread our messages. So I was wondering if you ever did make up the sheet music for this because I’m very interested in purchasing it! I just love this song so much and I listen to it especially when I’m feeling down
PAUL.... thanks for taking my request!!!!! 🎉🎉 This is phenomenal, as I knew it would be. I feel honored that my song request caused the downfall of your trusty tripod!!! Lol. Sorry I didn't get to see this sooner - I'm traveling for work. I always look forward to the daily tunes though. You're the best - thanks again!!! 😁😁 🎹🎹🎹🎹
Finally.. haha! 😁😁😁 So glad you like it, Dave! I really loved playing this for you - you deserve it and a whole lot more! Hope your business adventure is fun and rewarding. All the best to you!!
I’m a new-ish subscriber of yours! I love your music so much! I’ve never been much of a classical music fan but I love all of your renditions, especially when they’re Phantom of the Opera😄 Keep up the beautiful work!
Aw I will tell the lady at the flower shop that her rose is getting comments - she is so nice! She helped me choose this one. My piano is getting suspicious.. I keep giving it flowers ... it thinks I'm out having an affair with a guitar or something... As if I would be interested in anything with only 6 strings .... Yes the phantom was really in one of his moods... shaking my piano... saying HOW DARE YOU play my NIGHT music in the DAYTIME ... and I said "Dude... you're not that intimidating anymore.. EVERYONE is wearing a white mask ... get a life!"
Which one by kodaline? .... haha I know... just joking *THE* one! OK I'll add that to the jar too! Thanks Hannah - glad you like this one and thank you for always listening!!
My song request: full version of Scarborough fair for my mum to hear. You had it mixed with canon in d (I think) in an earlier video of yours. Peter Hollen’s vocal arrangement is my mums favourite, but I loved your take on it. So a full version without mixing in canon in D please.
I improvised this but yes ... I will transcribe it ... at the latest at the start of September - August is kind of a marathon haha! Thank you my friend!
I know I asked before, but would please consider playing "The Light Before We Land" by the Delgados? It's an obscure piece & a little weird, but the more I listen to your playing, the more I want to hear you play it. I know it would be beautiful.
Thanks so much James! I would say this is intermediate level ... It's not my easiest arrangement but D flat is a really beautiful key to play in on the piano - it fits really comfortably under the hands and I think you'll enjoy working on it. Working on music you love and enjoy will always enhance your skill level! It's not true that "practice makes perfect" ... but I always say "practice makes better" - wish you all the best on your piano adventures.
He is amazing - what's your favourite Weeknd song? I've only done this song from the Black Panther soundtrack a while ago... Pray For Me: ua-cam.com/video/kk55STRtvVo/v-deo.html

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, folding, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savour 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
...I always listen to this Song just waiting for those ( almost ) Last 5 Notes/Cords---i think they really make the Song....!!!....🤩🤩🤩

In this darkness which you know you can not fight
The darkness of the music of the night
Let your mind start a journey though 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
