Les Miserables Piano Medley

Hey everyone,
So, a couple of weeks ago I saw the movie Les Miserables and was pretty blown away. I knew some of the more popular songs from the play, although never really had any clue what the entire story was about. I thought the movie was so good that I was inspired to learn much more of the music, and am happy to be able to share it with all of you.
I just came off of an 11 day stretch of work including three 26 hour shifts, so I was feeling a little le miserable myself. Hehe. Recording this music has definitely provided some relief from the craziness, and I hope listening to it will as well.
Just fyi, I added in the song "Suddenly" from the movie because I thought it plays an integral role in the film, helping to emphasize a critical plot point. The fact that it was written so many years later just for the movie is special enough.
Anyway, I obviously recommend that you see the movie -- and would love it if you would let me know what you think of the music. I hope you enjoy it!
In order, the songs are:
Overture/Work Song
I Dreamed a Dream
Castle on a Cloud
Lovely Ladies
Master of the House
Suddenly
On My Own
Bring Him Home
Empty Chairs at Empty Tables
Do You Hear the People Sing

[@sarahdanielle2589]

+Ethan Swords yessss!!!!!!!

[@kaitlynnehira6081]

Yessssss

[@rjenness]

The only negative comment I have about this video is that it didn't have "One Day More", but other than that it was an inspiring piece of art.

[@grasshopperstudios2004]

Agreed, that and "Stars" which is sung by Javert (played by Russel Crowe)

[@datjodoe]

I haven't touched a piano in years. I stumbled across your video and I have tears all over my key pad and a new priority for tomorrow: to have a date with my piano.

[@kaitlynnehira6081]

I could watch someone play the piano all day. This is the most beautiful instrument 😍

[@laurenanthony1007]

This is giving me goosebumps. I'm a total theatre geek/thespian. My dream is to be Fantine in a production of Les Miserables.

[@ianmartin9045]

+Lauren Anthony Why? Eponine is the best singing role period. Then again, I guess it depends on your vocal strengths, you need a good contralto voice for Eponine.

[@laurenanthony1007]

+Ian Martin Yeah, I tried singing Eponine, and for the most part it's in my range, but there are just some notes that I cannot hit...

[@dshayter]

The discipline it takes to do this is commendable. Bravo! Thanks for sharing.

[@davidkearns6318]

How can this video have even 6 dislikes??? Why would ANYBODY dislike such a beautiful arrangement of such fantastic and deeply moving music???

[@rachelreid559]

I was in a production of this in my hometown. It was the first serious production we did. When I started I didn't realise how much this play would mean to me. I just thought about the cool 'set' from the movie. We did the first three shows, and the whole cast was crying on the last night. We honestly became the best of friends. The whole cast was a family. So, we then decided to do it again in a months time! (Since it got great reviews). So we did it. And I honestly never cried so much. This brought me too tears. Thank you for helping remember all those funny/emotional times while we created our own version of this. Thank you. -Rachel

[@awenedwards7676]

This is an absolutely amazing compilation of the songs! You`re a brilliant pianist! I also like the way you`ve managed to merge the pieces together without any awkward key changes!

[@annabellin2659]

Listening while doing history homework. Pretty blown away. Really gives it that feeling.

[@scarlett7900]

same!

[@leonardocorleone5344]

This is the best rendition I've heard so far. Bravo!

[@hanabusa0003]

so amazing! out of this world. and... he plays with no sheet!!

[@sohumjain3672]

castle on a cloud broke my heart

[@MRbkkk]

Wow... you have a gift, truly. Thank you for giving me my day, and for making the wolrd more beautiful.

[@benjacobs4514]

Nothing has ever made me as happy as that. My favorite musical with someone who has obviously spent years behind the piano mastering it. I wish someday to be like that. BRAVO

[@c0ronariu5]

I've just graduated and find the twelve-day stretches almost unbearable, and I genuinely can't fathom how my American colleagues handle the 24-plus hour shifts. Clearly music is a big part of how you unwind. Excellent work on this medley, thank you for sharing this with us.

[@michaelfinter7393]

Pianodoc82 you are an amazing talent. To all of you asking for sheet music, I believe he is playing by ear. The music flows from his brain to his fingertips. There is no sheet music...

[@rhodeinanorrby3270]

So beautiful! I play piano myself and have been doing that for 7 years (16 years old), but this is so AMAZING!!! I want that piano, so beautiful and make such a beautiful sound. :D

[@AxCappella]

I loved this. He did do a couple of broadway medleys a while back, both of which (if I remember correctly) included a song or two from the stage version.

[@musoforlife1932]

Mhm,totally agree. I first saw it with my mum and sister and absolutely loved it.I went two weeks later to our local cultural centre where they were showing it on a big screen with two of my best friends.One had never seen it and the other had seen it twice before! Thankfully the one who had never seen it loved it to bits! We were some of youngest in the audience (by a LONG shot!)but there was another teenage couple there who remarked (very loudly) that they hated it. So much for musical taste.

[@gege3266]

JOLIE INTERPRÉTATION DU PIANO DES MISÉRABLES ! BRAVO !

[@AmandaLeeOfficial]

i could listen to this for days and not get sick of it. absolutely beautiful!

[@peterbarczak5035]

This absolutely made my day. I've always felt that Les Mis didn't really translate to piano very well...until seeing this. You have so masterfully blended everything together in a way that makes it sound just as enjoyable as the real thing. I'll be studying your rendition very closely to try to play this one on my own, every measure of it! Bravo!!

[@louiswalmer]

Fantastic 12.19mins of my life!

[@Lyshymaree]

I wish i could like this three billion times. Perfect.

[@PhantoMPhreeK92]

Your version of Suddenly is soo much better than the movies.

[@pangetuliotsa]

I am now blown away. A big Thank You from Estonia!

[@SimplyForging]

Absolutely, I could only ask for at least one of Javerts solos, but none the less a masterful composition well done

[@GrabMySanity]

The fact that you've done all this by ear, AND that you remember all of it, it absolutely amazing!

[@TheJonb007]

just WOW.. all the emotion of the movie in 12 minutes of pure amazingness!

[@VanityMonroeSixx]

How do I start this off? I do not think I can describe your work as well as you played but, I'm going to try. From the moment you started playing, I was captivated. I was captivated by the way your fingers gracefully stroked the keys as if it were glass and by the way the passion was just radiating off of you. I love the movie, it is wonderful. Though, I feel like you were playing the movie itself. This is my favorite Les Mis medley I have heard and I am glad I watched the whole 12 minutes. When you started playing On My Own (the song Eponine sings) I felt like crying. Not of anything bad, I assure you. I felt like that because I imagined Eponine singing that and of her love being completely unrequited...than by the end of your marvelous medley, I was speechless. For I have not heard anything so beautiful in my entire life. I could go on and on praising this medley but no words can describe how I feel. Thank you for this medley. It really brought me back.

[@tinahturner4957]

Very good am enjoying now.

[@emmanelson5363]

On My Own is my favorite too.

[@collin3987]

If you love the movie, you should watch the original musical. It's so much better.

[@ravenraghoo]

There needs to be looping option of youtube, I can never stop listening to this

[@callmevince]

Bravo!!!!! 12 minutes of my life well spent!!!!

[@loiskeaney7200]

I would love to be able to play this, Im learning myself, and always play to destress!!!! well done!!!!xx

[@HeyItsKelsey94]

this is phenomenal. brought me to tears.

[@maomama19990909]

思わず聴き惚れてしまいました。素晴らしい演奏、ありがとうございます。

[@hiasmaker3248]

to learn this by heart must be hard. hats off !!

[@pianogirlsmiles]

Beautiful! This is my most favorite play. Just so you know, the movie is nothing compared to the play. You have got to see it. Every time I do, I fall in love all over again. When you played, I could see the play in my head. That is pure talent

[@ValeriaMp96]

I am blown away. Thank for sharing your talent. This is amazing.

[@BelindaHumphries]

That was amazing I'm gobsmacked if you ever got the sheet music I would be so proud to even have it let alone play it you are truly amazing

[@normamarpaung5170]

The way you play it also blown away too.. I love it!!

[@aurora787]

Wonderful. I absolutely love Les Miserables, and this piano version is beautiful.

[@TheOscarFrancois]

[@gcbound]

[@maargieee]

it sounds like a lullaby

[@paullewis9846]

[@CanduPalacios397]

This is the most inspiring piece of music I've ever heard, you've touched my soul with this medley. Thank you!

[@rttipton]

Doc you are amazing! If you practice medicine like you play piano your patients are in good hands. (BUT a twenty-sixer is too long!!)

[@serenidyme]

My ears have been blessed.

[@lks199393]

[@andrewmdbell]

Beautiful playing to a wonderful rendition.

[@Choko6885]

[@musicilike2]

Well Done. I love the dynamics you use. Rarely used in playing these days. Good job!

[@tylervogen5903]

Can we please please please get some sheet music for this?!??? It's so beautiful and so precious and I just keep rewatching it because I absolutely love this!!!

[@juliaenloe1165]

I was just recently in a production for Les Misérables outdoors under the stars. Before the movie came out I saw Les Misérables on stage so many times since its my mom's number one favorite Broadway show. We always say in the back so it made me confused and not understand what the show was about but the first time I saw the show I fell in love with the music. Once I saw the movie when it came out it helped understand more on what the show was about and also fell in love with Suddenly. Being in the show was so much fun and just by understanding what the show is about and since it was the last performance and I got so close to the cast and crew at the end of the show one of my best friends and I cried backstage. This work that you've done in the video is absolutely beautiful. I think you pulled almost every single song together really well and sometimes it's not easy to do especially working on the side. So we'll done, bravo. ☺🎶 Can I buy this on iTunes? I would love to listen to this over and over again. 🎶

[@christinamoniz]

This is so gorgeous, it made me cry. No kidding.

[@crwan88]

Beautiful, I am a big fan for les miserables. 12 minutes well spend

[@alanhuerta5095]

The castle on a cloud had me almost in tears

[@jasonmurtagh8969]

You Sir are incredible!! Thank you for 12 minutes of pure joy..🥰

[@1994msi]

I LOVE how you got turned on to the musical through the film. I've been a fan of Les Miserables for years, and my grandfather was the one who introduced me. It really warms my heart to know that more young people are being introduced to the magic of Les Mis!!

[@sofipombo]

Im seriously in love with this

[@huiyingtanyayap]

why my parents never force me to go for piano lesson

[@СергейЕгоров-ж2т]

You are not alone with that thoughts)

[@ShellieSparkles]

Beautiful. You have inspired me to retake up my lessons. Thank you x

[@nickjones6313]

I am looking at your piano in awe.

[@joychalaby]

Beautiful Les Miserables piano medley!!!

[@turk100y]

Suddenly is not I'm the musical but I love it so much!

[@laurenredman2370]

Absolutely perfectly mixed. They flow so well into each other. I'm just so amazed. Very good job!

[@dustystrings36]

“Bring Him Home” is my all time favorite and you played it brilliantly! I love your music!

[@not2tees]

Thanks very much - I don't know this music, for the most part. I'll have to see the movie. It's great to hear you play.

[@FrankBrescher123]

a joyous 12.20 minutes. These are minutes that illustrate why my parents should have beaten me over the head to learn the piano. Thanks for the trip....

[@FrankBrescher123]

skill, passion, talent, perfection. The finest 12:20 I have invested in a long time. Flashes of the play/movie, the beauty, the pain, terror and love. 12:20 invested very wisely. Thank you.

[@nikygutman1720]

This is beyond stunning

[@altheabrown990]

this is utterly brilliant, you are SO talented. SO TALENTED. Wow.

[@radificationnation]

I had this playing in the background and totally forgot someone was actually playing it. Very well done! Thanks for posting it!

[@ellaclaire981]

Wow. All I can say is that you are one of the most talented people I'e ever seen.

[@TheJufe]

I've watched this about 30 times in a row now

[@mahalahall5317]

This is simply beautiful

[@katefinlay6458]

"Do you hear the people sing?" Is my absolute favourite!

[@rubyodea8510]

Absolutely mesmerising. The emotion you poured in this tells a story better than any words could. Beautiful.

[@CrazyBlonde2393]

before I watch this video I just want to THANK YOU JESUS and thanks dude playing that pianer!

[@emilyproehl2461]

THIS IS PERFECTION

[@reneepianocovers]

MARRY ME YOU ARE AMAZING MAKE ME WANNA CRY THE WAY YOU PLAY THANKYOU

[@cmcb30]

Well played.. just listening to the music again makes me feel like im watching the whole movie again!!!

[@johastro]

Brilliant flow. All respect...

[@wellpied1]

Absolutely beautiful

[@mbroll65]

Ok, now reading your comments I just realized you did everything by ear with no sheet music!! Amazing, truly amazing!!! Bravo!!!

[@emilybackstrom1982]

This is amazing! I've watched a lot of your videos and each and every one of them are a joy to listen to. This is my favorite of your medleys and of any les mis medley I've listened to. You're the first I've seen actually do Look Down and you make every song so perfect, either lively or haunting. I particularly like Do You Hear the People Sing, since you let the dotted quarter notes and eighth notes move like how it wants to on paper with a lot of spirit and each leading into the other, as opposed to the way most people sing it. Every note and chord is spot on and you pour so much feeling into each song you do, it's a true pleasure to listen to. Thank you so much for your music, I'm sure even if you primarily play by ear it's still a lot of work.

[@oscaraguilar5542]

Amazing. I loved the movie of Les Miserables. It moved me. I literally almost cried through out the whole move.

[@Anjouliayala]

In love with this piece of art!

[@MegaBlueboi]

Beautiful. Thank you! This has made my day!

[@rose53685]

This is simply PERFECTION

Endlessly sublime.

[@hannahv3816]
