hi i wanted to play piano all of my life and im 15 people always tell me i should beause i have long fingers and i want to play soundtracks like phantom of the opera, wicked , and love songs like bed of roses by bon jovi, so i was hoping you could tell me which type of piano would be best and other helpful info, thank you =)
which lines from your sheet do you play all three together or the top one and the bottom one? because usually there are two lines. the top one for the right and the bottom one for the left hand?
im trying to play this but i have the flute instead of piano because at the time my mom could only play flute then i wanted to try and play it so then we got a piano and now im trying to play this song out of a flute book because piano and flute are the same notes but its not working out becasue i need the left hand part so it can sound better... if you understand..
Amazon, musicnotes, local music store - I've seen it in lots of places. You could probably ask for a book store to order it in for you if you don't want to buy it online.
i love this song sooo much. i'm doing it with my voice teacher and she sent it home with me before she heard me sing it so i practiced hitting the Brightman note at the end and really surprised her by doing so :) i love to sing !!
one word dude "WOW!" and i loved starring at the pictures at the front of your book. thats my favorite re-make of it! the 2004 edition! it had the best actors and singers! gerald butler and emmy i cant spell her last name! but still you are amazing!
You are my hero Mr. cjwilkie Your skills as a pianist touch me deeply. I listen to you play every night. There is so much beauty in the way you play and your fingers move. Thank you.
accidentally deleted a comment from " zoeavgoustakis", instead of pressing reply...
...but my response to any difficulties with any pages is to take them slowly and play them through once, and keep doing so until you eventually become familiar with what's on it, and then it shouldn't be too hard!
Would you please tell me where have you bought your piano score or should I call it Anrew LLoyds' musical magazine? I've been so much interested to play this song but I have gotten only the chords and not the notes. Please help me^_^ thanks a lot.
as soon as you have a good camera, you should upload 'he's a pirate' (it's a good song to polka through the room:) it sounds silly, but it really is a good way to forget all the stressy situations life can bring :D)
that is definitely going to be the first video i upload. too many people have been playing some random version that isn't in the music book, and that upsets me
I'm just starting to play this. Lol I'm probably going through the whole piano book. I'm nearly 15 and been playing piano since 3 yrs ago and keyboard since 9 yrs ago.
I've finished Phantom of the Opera (Whole song with all key changes) and Music of the Night. MIght post them up here in a few weeks.
hi! You play gr8! I used to play piano too but then I stopped, because I fell into despair. Even if I practised much, nothing was brilliant. But I'm thinking to play piano for fun. I'm just wondering if you could somehow send me these piano sheets on e-mail, please?
and a proper video camera. i have stopped making videos because I'm tired of listening to the snap/crackle/pop that my photo camera gets when recording background noise. >:O
At first it's kind of hard, but after about a few months you start getting the hang of it and then after about 5 years you're a master of notes. :) But there are five lines, and the notes go C,E,G,B,D,F (Every Good Boy Does Fine lol) for the lines and F,A,C,E,G for the spaces. Then for the left hand it's G,B,D,F,A,C(<--- This C is the same as the one for the right hand.) for the lines and A,C(<--- This one is NOT the same as the other two C's),E,G,B. It's easier if you can actually see it.
i'm sure it's listed on some websites, but anyway:
Think of Me, Angel of Music (& Mirror), The Phantom of the Opera, The Music of the Night, Prima Donna, All I Ask of You, Masquerade, Wishing you were Somehow Here Again, and the Point of No Return.
Film pieces include Journey to the Cemetery, The Fairground and Learn to be Lonely
wow amazing! do you mind if i use this to put up a recording of me singing along to it!? (does that make any sense) lol! thanks! xx p.s. if you could check out my video of wishing you were somehow here again .... id be eternally grateful! thanks! xxx
Ick, the movie version was terrible!

@Hasengehirn The top line is voice, the middle line is right hand, the bottom is left hand, so I play the bottom two.
