I have had a love for this musical ever since seeing it on Broadway the summer after finishing high school. The lush, melodic arrangements, the balance of darkness and camp, and the show's musical cohesiveness have stuck with me over the years. Thank you so much for listening!
The Phantom of the Opera (Slow) - 0:00
The Point of No Return - 0:59
All I Ask of You - 2:38
The Phantom of the Opera - 3:34
Thanks so much to Katherine and Adam for bringing their enthusiasm and generosity to this project, and for playing so passionately!
A huge thanks as well to Moh Mahfouz, a good friend of mine who filmed this video. So glad I finally had a chance to bring his talents on board!

Amazing Thank you!

[@vincev4660]

Great performance...can you please do a Clair de lune x girl with the flaxen hair. I know as a musician composing music and creating parts for the different instruments And parts 1,2 etc takes time but that crossover would make my year. Keep up the good work.

This is beautiful..... can we get a Jurassic Park theme song cover from you guys?! Pretty please.

Bruh I was literally just listening to the soundtrack for phantom of the opera and all of a sudden I got a notif for this. I swear y'all read minds

[@nicholasdyee]

I mean, who isn't listening to The Phantom of the Opera at any given moment?? 🙌

[@michaelar2188]

I really love that you included past the point of no return!!! That’s my favorite part of the whole musical and I feel like it isn’t shown enough love

[@nicholasdyee]

It's my favourite song from the musical as well! 🙌

[@KB1.1]

Same

[@geminilife3014]

My favorite song in Phantom

[@BeWiL0991]

Same! Something magical and conceptually scintillating about it.

[@jordhon]

Loved the music but also the moving camera! Felt like a "phantom" camera floating around. Made it very dynamic and also calming to watch!

[@nicholasdyee]

Thanks so much, Jordon! I'd love to work on a video with you if you are ever interested/available 😊

[@AlexB-dg9vv]

Without wanting to put anyone down (they're all good players), the girl on the left is really outstanding. She's got a lot of subtle variation in tone, intonation, vibrato, volume etc that really adds to her sound. Her sections sound unique and really expressive without being over the top dramatic. Same in the pirates video as well.

[@nicholasdyee]

Awe Katherine is great, so lucky to have her in these videos 🙏

[@isleepinyourbed]

This man is the reason I play the cello

[@TheUnknown919]

Love the 'The Point Of No Return' part, great cover!

[@snowful]

I've found what I'll be listening to on repeat this month! Also, the camera work was pretty much perfect imo. I've never been a fan of wide swings or cuts in music videos like this on KZbin because it detracts from the music. Great change of pace, props to whoever was in charge!

[@nicholasdyee]

Thanks so much 🙏 I knew I wanted to do a more dynamic video than usual but also didn't want it to be too distracting. My friend Moh Mahfouz shot this, he is so tasteful with a gimbal and has great musical sensibilities as well!

[@salmonflavored]

It was so nice. Not distracting at all. And fun to see the players and instruments up close

[@kywha1e_]

Things like this remind me why I started playing cello in the first place.
