Philip Wesley performs 'Dark Night of the Soul'

Maybe Billie will fix that.

I’m watching this in 2023, still loving it. Stumble upon this by chance and I use it as my sleeping track because of the soothing melodies. Really great piece. I appreciate your music

[@AlyssaLoves97]

Favorite pianist since 2012 ❤

[@DisgruntledVet03]

Same here. Saw him in concert in 2015.

Philip Wesley do you have any tutorials for this song and "approaching the night" ?

[@310jwa]

Philip Wesley you’re SO good, thanks for making music

[@thestarchlady]

Breathtaking! Playing the piano heals my soul.

[@ThePrototype1978]

His melodies are just perfect

[@latchkeykidd1415]

I almost cry every time I hear this song

[@Grumpforce13]

I’ve been a gang member, I have been in prisons, I’ve been harden by life. I’ve pounded my fist against the pavement and always considered this music to be….. boring. I now realize how wrong I was. This music is inspiring, it’s artistic and moving. Sir don’t ever stop making this kind of music, it is a gift from God that moves.. I just wish I could’ve listened to this music many years ago, I know I would of been inspired to do better things in life!

[@dirtydawgj]

Chopin, Brahms, Mozart, Beethoven and WESLEY!! THANK YOU Sir!!!

[@davidowens1132]

I really like the way your music flows. It seems to be able to weave itself through time and space, to touch feelings thought to be long lost. Thank you for Sharing your Gift.

[@tracyvaillancourt5366]

Mesmerizing. I am in awe of this person. I am normally a heavy metal person but I find myself listening to Philip's music more than any other.

[@lordepl]

Most underrated piano song ever created...

Blessed song, carries me through every dark night of the soul, the light in the path, the strength and bravery to carry through, break into and out on the other side.

[@lydia6379]

FINALLY finished learning this song!! This is the first real song I've learned on the piano!

[@cassied2335]

This is one of my favorite songs to play on the piano. It relaxes my mind so much. Thank you for your beautiful music 🎶

[@davidstringer8711]

WOW!!! I am 70, been playing 5 years now. I thought that learning all Einaudi's pieces would keep me busy for the next five years BUT WAIT!!! Just discovered you!!! OMG I am so going to learn this brother. So many thanks!!!!

[@rotmindol1119]

I highly doubt you'll see this, but I'm new at piano, only been learning for 3 months, at 15. I feel like I missed the peak of piano since most start when they're super young, but I'm destined to learn this piece. _It is going to be the first big piece I learn._ Thank you. This song speaks to me so much.

[@bryannacalliegh9367]

Rotmindol urgh I know what you mean dude, same

[@Dr.GuglioTepTep]

15?! I'm starting at 27, you have plenty time don't you worry.

[@strshp2665]

You guys are funny! Even though I’ve played a Hammond organ for 20 years, I’m just starting to play the piano. I’m 63 and as I’ve discovered, the piano is a completely different animal. No matter how slowly or quickly you press a key on an organ, you get the same note. With a piano, it is all about how a key is played. Having the necessary control over my left hand has proven to be extremely difficult for me. I wish you both decades of enjoyment as you refine your skill. Think about how much more beautiful this world would be if people practiced playing an instrument for just half the hours they spend playing video games! 🙂

[@leaht-pu1tm]

I'm 64 and have been dreaming of teaching myself to play for years. I've already started shopping for a Roland Electronic Piano 88 Weighted Keys. Our local music store has some really good people

Transcend is one awesome album. Came across your music on Pandora. You are one of my top three favorite Pianists, next to Ludovico Einaudi and Jennifer Thomas.

[@stevenb6253]

I've learned a couple of your pieces by ear and, while they're pretty hard for beginner or intermediate level, they are not impossible and able to be played with enough effort, and higher level players like myself still get a challenge from some of the licks you put in. Also, it's incredibly relaxing; I even find myself emotional at the end of some of them (Darkness falls and DNOTS especially). If this is the future of piano I look forward to it!

[@NellaBDella]

Seriously, my second favorite song by him with the first being Darkness Falls. Darkness Falls is the first song I heard in this genre that made me realize this was a genre to pay attention to and I even enrolled in piano classes at the local college just to learn that song. So far, that is the song that I haven't seen him play and that's a bummer, but his music is amazing either way.

[@JonathanSmith512]

I’ve been practicing this song for the last 3-4 days now. I don’t know how to read the music sheets so all I can do is practice by ear and I’m not the the best at piano. Every time I feel like I got a part on here I’m always missing or finding out something new. I’ll post a video of the song when I master it probably in 3-4 months

[@JonathanSmith512]

update: I've fully completed the song including adding some of my personal edits, just need to record me playing it perfectly which is kinda hard lol

[@joeuser2012]

I don't read music sheets but this one of the songs i was able ro kear quickly besides Unbridled Spirit

[@fannytorres1781]

This is such a beautiful piece. I enjoyed it very much and love the way it just flows. Please keep up the good work on these great piano songs. I hope to learn this one a play it at my recital in one year. I wish I had your creativity and piano skills to be able to put this piece together. I'm surprised I haven't heard of this song yet. Even though I keep repeating, I cannot stress how beautiful this is.
