Les Misérables (Medley) (SATB Choir) - Arranged by Ed Lojeski

[@rubenaguilo7405]

This is beautiful, I'm proud of being able to sing this arrangement with the choir I'm in!

[@bro8974]

I remember a rainy night in Huntsville, AL just after Christmas. I was returning to Memphis from Alabama, where I had visited my family. I overnighted in Huntsville. I had just bought the new Susan Boyle cd, and I played it over and over on that trip. That night I was lonely, and "I Dreamed a Dream" was the perfect song.

[@stefanieviana]

At the end of the day you're another day older And that's all you can say for the life of the poor It's a struggle, it's a war And there's nothing that anyone's giving One more day, standing about, what is it for? One day less to be living. At the end of the day you're another day colder And the shirt on your back doesn't keep out the chill And the righteous hurry past They don't hear the little ones crying And the winder is coming on fast, ready to kill One day nearer to dying! At the end of the day there's another day dawning And the sun in the morning is waiting to rise Like the waves crash on the sand Like a storm that'll break any second There's a hunger in the land There's a reckoning still to be reckoned And there's gonna be hell to pay At the end of the day!

[@martinpatrick9915]

I saw a high school production of Les miserables man the young people in the cast they sang so beautifully and believe me it was something I wont forget.

[@nath.an.b]

just sang this tonight at my school’s chorus concert!!!! it was my first time singing soprano and i’m very proud to say i was able to hit the high notes 😂😂 my voice is very tired now tho 😂

[@thefrogmayor6524]

Nat’s Not Famous good job, i can sing the soprano notes but i prefer auto Good job

[@haydengriffis6861]

Try actually performing this show. I've done it. It is very vocally demanding and will exhaust your voice. 😂😂😂

[@juliabelmonte5653]

I miss choir 😭

[@thejoshsings9280]

I do too. This is so touching

[@larrystylinson3074]

So excited to preform two solos (bring him home and the finale female solo) and the small group in castle on a cloud next week for my 8th grade concert along with all of the other soloists and choir. Les Mis has been my favorite musical since I was very young so to be able to have this experience is great. Wish us luck!

[@melinajackson171]

0:06 - At the end of the day 5:18 - castle on a cloud 8:20 - on my own

[@SomeYouTubeTraveler]

I came here from listening to the epic 10th anniversary concert. My mom (who got me interested in musicals) used to do gigs singing in all the "demo track" choir recordings like this one for Hal Leonard and such, and I'm about 99% sure I can hear her voice on this. I'll have to share this with her and see if she remembers it!

[@BatmanFan611]

Did she remember it?

[@SomeYouTubeTraveler]

@@BatmanFan611 Sadly, no... it seems the 1% of me that was unsure was right! She _did_ remember doing a demo of "I Dreamed a Dream" for them, and she's done lots of ensemble medleys like this too, but just not this particular one. Guess I don't have the ear for distinct voices I thought I did. :-P

[@kendellvisser7414]

It has been my dream to perform Les Miserables in its entirety. But in choir I have sang some songs from this of mine favorite musicals however I would love to sing this in any new choir as I just completed my school choir years in college. :-) !

[@andrealabonair3519]

The fact that little Freshmen me beat out all the seniors who auditioned for the 'I Dreamed a Dream' Solo will forever be in my heart. Lol

[@justanotherbohemian3827]

Well done haha!

Dude I'm a junior trying out for that now

[@lunastar499]

My school is currently singing this arrangement. It's so fun and it really gets stuck in your head! Bring Him Home is a little hard tho...

[@Ecvdingoz24]

Trust me when I say it'll never not be stuck in your head

[@lilliansue6631]

My choir did just Bring Him Home it was so much fun to sing

[@thesilentgamer2267]

Did you’re choir sing the creepy part about the guy taking her innocence, cause mine didn’t and we were ok with that.

[@thefrogmayor6524]

awesomelego24 awesomelego24 our choir skipped bring him home 😥

[@thatonemto]

We are singing the whole thing at my school

[@starbrother2000]

I enjoyed this engagement of the Les Mis. I think that the emotions and the conter-melody that the men do fits Les Mis perfectly

[@KrabbyLama]

Couldn't of said it any better myself, Star Brother. It's because of you that I got interested in this medley lol

[@nightmarechantheneko]

10:39 Bring him home God on high Hear my prayer In my need You have always been there You can take You can give Let him be Let him live If I die, let me die Let him live Bring him home Bring him home Bring him home

[@arezkilarab4241]

At the end of the day you're another day older, And that's all you can say for the life of the poor. It's a struggle, it's a war, and there's nothing that anyone's giving One more day standing about what is it for? One day less to be living, At the end of the day you're another day colder And the shirt on your back doesn't keep out the chill. And the righteous hurry past, They don't hear the little ones crying And the winter is coming on fast ready to kill One day nearer to dying At the end of the day there's another day dawning And the sun in the morning is waiting to rise Like the waves' crash on the sand Like a storm that'll break any second There's a hunger in the land There's a reckoning still to be reckoned It's us who'll have to pay At the end of the day 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 time gone by When hope was high and life worth living I dreamed that love would never die I dreamed that God would be forgiving But the tigers come at night (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 (Slept a summer by her side) He filled my days with endless wonder He took my childhood in his stride (Took her childhood in my stride) But he was gone when autumn came. (Ah...) And still I dreamed he'd come to me, That we would 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 diff'rent from this hell I'm living So diff'rent now from what it seemed Now life has killed the dream I dream. There is a castle on a cloud I like to go there in my sleep Aren't any floors for me to sweep Not in my castle on a cloud There is a room that's full of toys There are a hundred boys and girls Nobody shouts or talks too loud Not in my castle on a cloud There is a lady all in white, Holds me and sings a lullaby. She's nice to see And she's soft to touch. She says "Cosette, I love you very much" I know a place where no one's lost I know a place where no one cries Crying at all is not allowed Not in my castle on a cloud. Do you hear the people sing Singing the song of angry men It is the music of the people who will not be slaves again When the beating of your heart Echoes the beating of the drums There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes. Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me? Beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see? Then join in the fight that will give you the right to be free! Do you hear the people sing Singing the song of angry men It is the music of the people On my own, pretending he's beside me All alone I walk with him 'til morning Without him I feel his arms around me And when I lose my way I close my eyes And he has found me In the rain the pavement shines like silver All the lights are misty in the river In the darkness the trees are full of starlight And all I see is him and me forever and forever And I know it's only in my mind That I'm talking to myself and not to him And although I know that he is blind Still I say (still I say) there's a way for us I love him, but everyday I'm learning All my life I've only been pretending Without me his world will go on turning The world is full of happiness that I have never known I love him I love him I love him But only on my own God on high Hear my pray'r In my need You have always been there You can take You can give Let him be Let him live If I die Let me die Let him live Bring him home Bring him home Bring him home On this page I write my last confession Read it well When I at last am sleeping It's a story Of those who always loved you, Your mother gave her life for you, Then gave you to my keeping. Come with me Where chains will never bind you All your grief At last, at last behind you. Lord in heaven, Look down on him in mercy. Forgive me all my trespasses And take me to Your glory. Take my hand And lead me to salvation Take my love for love is everlasting And remember the truth that once was spoken To love another person is to see the face of God. Do you hear the people sing? Lost in the valley of the night? It is the music of the people Who are climbing to the light For the wretched of the earth There is a flame that never dies Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise. They will live again in freedom in the garden of the Lord, They will walk behind the plough-share They will put away the sword. The chain will be broken and all men will have their reward! Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me? Somewhere beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see? Do you hear the people sing, Say do you hear the distant drums? It is the future that they bring when tomorrow comes. Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me? Somewhere beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see? Do you hear the people sing, Say do you hear the distant drums? It is the future that they bring when tomorrow comes! Ah Tomorrow comes!

[@emilykirby4707]

i miss this so much i sang it my sophomore year and it’s so good😥

[@samsoto338]

I sang this in Chorus when I was in 8th grade in my spring concert. When I was a freshman in high school, concert choir couldn’t fit into my schedule because learning center had to meet everyday. I was very depressed. Every time I listen to this song, it reminds me of my last choral concert before freshman year of high school.

[@ericbergmueller2981]

This is the most requested Broadway Medley from my student groups. Great memories of performing it many times over the years.

[@martinpatrick9915]

It was very emotional at the end of the film version of les mis.

[@ClementDay]

My theatre teacher recommended this to me, and it’s wonderful. I certainly appreciate it!

On my own, pretending he’s beside me. All alone I walk with him ‘til morning. Without him I feel his arms around me. And when I loose my way I close my eyes And he has found me. In the rain the pavement shines like silver. All the lights are misty in the river In the darkness the trees are full of starlight And all I see is him and me forever and forever. And I know it’s only in my mind That I’m talking to myself and not to him. And although I know that he is blind, Still I say there’s a way for us I love him but every day I’m learning All my life I’ve only been pretending Without me his world will go on turning The world is full of happiness that I have never known. I love him, i love him, I love him, But only on my own. God on high hear my prayer, In my need you have always been there. You can take you can give. Let him be let him live. If I die let me die, Let him live. Bring him home, bring him home Bring him home. On this page I write my last confession Read it well when I at last am sleeping.

Lea Solonga in the 10th anniversary concert she was so talented with her voice and she returned to the stage as Fontaine for the 25th anniversary concert at the O2 arena in London.

This is such a beautiful arrangement of music! I am so proud to be singing soprano!! I am hoping to get the 'I dreamed a dream' solo! I will keep ya'll updated :D Update: I did not get the I dreamed a dream solo nor any solo but something ironic is the fact that all of the favorites and the daughter of the director got solos! Theater is *so* fun....

[@Jasmina584]

My favorite part too

1:37 I Dreamed A Dream by Caterina Catherine There was a time when people 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 hopes were high and lives 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 loved No song unsung, no wine untasted But the tigers come at night With their voices soft as thunder As they tear your hopes apart As they turn your dreams to shame I've slept a Summer by my time That filled my days with endless wonders It took my childhood in it's stride! But, that was gone when Winter came And still I dream that come to me That I would live the years all together But there are dreams that cannot be and there are storms I 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

[@iamsherk2605]

Why is there no One Day More?

or Master Of The House, or Empty Chairs at Empty Tables. my GUESS is since this a medley of songs, they picked ones they could easily transition from one to the other.

It’s a great piece but puts the difficulty up several notches.

So this is a song I'm singing in the concert and I still don't know it. Doing some cramming

[@martinpatrick1746]

University, colleges mount their own productions of Les Miserables.wow they do a awesome job with the music and the orchestra,leaves you a bit emotional with some songs.

I like this Christmas carol version

Still debating to audition for a solo but maybe I’ll man up, maybe I’ll update whoever is reading this…

This song was everyone in the choir’s favorite in spring of 9th grade

[@annika2174]

i love this, but i’m personally offended that one day more isn’t included

[@courtrosss]

Not too big of a fan; I was really hoping that they'd end with One Day More when it jumped to Act II so suddenly, but the staple number was nowhere to be found. As nice as the singing was, it felt too stiff, leaving much to be desired.

[@becks5198]

Courtney it’s just there so you can hear how the arrangements sounds. It’s to help people in music figure out if it’s great for their students or not.

[@allisonlennox7140]

I agree about One Day More, but I'd be sad if they did use because they'd shorten it. Maybe after this piece they choir preforming should do One Day More in its entirety.

Hate it. The best chord is obviously at the end of one day more but where is it

[@martinpatrick1746]

AWESOME!!-it captures the smash musical loved by audiences all around the world.

[@thegreenvoltage]

Most of the show’s best songs aren’t in this lol

[@jackwoodbury2373]

This actually made me feel sick. Don’t get me wrong, It was perfect in form, but Les Mis was not written for a chorus. It’s the character put into these songs that make them so great. When you go from telling a story to just singing the notes, you lose all that. A good effort, but it was failed from the start.

[@maskofice9432]

Maybe, but I sung this arrangement before having heard or watched Les Mis, and even without having seen the story at that time, I still found the music incredibly powerful and moving. Whether that has to do with the arrangement or the songs just being good enough to survive without context, I can't say. And then when I saw the full play, I now had the context and could enjoy them even more.

[@euhopeia479]

I had sung this arrangement with my choir class but everyone in the class was also in drama so we truly did put emotion into it. We love the movie and soundtrack and you are right, Les Miserables is a song that should not be a choir arrangement but when you have the right emotion and right people singing the arangemet, it sounds beautiful.

[@emilyseymour8273]

This version isn’t the greatest I can admit. My school did it 10x better
