  • what key is this?

  • Such a powerful, beautiful performance - thanks James for another wonderful presentation of how the piano should be played.

  • Hey dude! Can you like write the lyrics of the song to this arrangement!? Please? I <3 this song and you are pretty good! :) Write back on my wall or in a message! Thanks!

  • nice man.

  • amazing. please get the sheet music for magic to do and have a tutorial on how to play it please :)

  • Love this song so uplifting I enjoyed sing ing it with your accompaniment.x

  • my mom used to play this; very reminiscent, thank you.

  • I can sing this song.

  • can you PLEASE tell me where you got the sheet music for this! I've been looking for it for months!!

  • Hi! This is the PGV arrangement available as an online digital download from musicnotes-dot-com.

  • @es76 is there a chance you can upload it as a pdf for us somewhere? you would pretty much make my day if you did.

  • This is so helpful. Thank you so much for sharing this!

  • Our choir is going to sing this soon. I wanted to see what the music parts sounded like and now I'm all wowed.

  • You are phenomenal. I'm using this to help for an upcoming audition, but in all honestly I don't think my accompanist will be half as great. Thank you so much!

  • The Question I have are you playing Accompaniment or are you playing Melody ?

  • Nice. A couple of things: you start too fast, you're right about a few bad notes, try to keep things in the same octave. But it's very well done.

  • You know, Stephen Schwartz (the composer of Pippin) actually played the beginning and end faster than the rest of the song so.... ya. And I actually like that the octaves switched sometimes. It added differerent depths for the different emotions in the piece. I agree, though; it is very well done. GREAT Job!

  • Absolutely beautiful...you have a talent to be cherished...Caro...

  • Thank you for your generous words. I'm very touched by the comments everyone has taken the trouble to leave. James

  • Awesome!!!! I accompanied this piece for my spring chorus concert, and it took me FOREVER to learn.... I had a slightly different arrangement though, done by Teena Chinn.

  • hahaha!!! wow you got marriage proposal already!! how fabulous!

  • I wish I could give you five stars again. Absolutely wonderful - thanks for putting this on Youtube.

    Some more Pippin songs would be much appreciated - you do them justice.

  • Omg You gave me goosebumps at the end it was amazing!!!!!!

  • Omg - now I have the power of goosebumps too!

  • Really?!?! That's awesome XD

  • Hei.Cheers for sharing. Hope you dont mind if I use your accompaniment to sing a long for studying. Thanks man. Great playing.

  • You are amazing and i think i love you. i've been trying to perfect this song on the piano myself, it sounds so much different when someone else plays it. you're fabulous.

  • Gasp - I think my ego is going to explode! ;)

  • brillliant. marry me.

  • If only I'd had the seductive power of youTube videos available to me 10 years ago!!! lol :)

  • NICE. Great practice for singers :)

  • really good i sang along with it perfectly

  • This is awesome! The best accompaniment of this song I've heard! I'm a geek and listen to it every day!

  • AWESOME MAN!!!! I love Schwartz!

  • Thanks for posting this! I'm a big wanna be singer and this accompaniment has give me the perfect opportunity to torture my wife with my wanna be broadway voice.

    But I'm having fun! Love it and love the playing!

  • I love this song! You make it look so easy to play. I too play piano, and I only wish my short fingers would move across this keys like yours. You play beautifully.

  • It is a great song isn't it! :) Simply the nicest people seem to visit and leave considerate and charitable comments. How lucky am I!

  • i know the words

  • that was fantastic! i love singing with just accompaniments instead of along with somebody else singing (unless it's a harmony) but that brightened my day a little =] thanks.

  • WOW! This was fantastic. I LOVED singing to your accompaniment...your feeling for this piece matches mine so well. Wish you lived near me so we could try other songs. Thanks so much for sharing...you really made my day.

  • AMAZING PLAYING! BEST VERSION I HAVE HEARD! just to let you know, your video helped me get ready for an audition for a music scholarship for college and i won it =) THANK YOU!!!!!!

  • Many hearty congratulations on your scholarship! Hard fought and well earned I'm sure. Thanks for sharing your good news.

  • You play so beautifully!! I wish that I could be standing by the side singing along

  • Hey! That is sooo kind! How I wish you were singing along too. Thanks for making my day! :)

    thanks so much for the trip down nostalgia lane =]

    kudos on the beautiful playing.

  • Great performance! Keep it up!

  • sorry i mabeyi was wrong below.....just loved it thats why

  • Are there THAT many changes in the tempo???

  • Ouch! ;) Probably not but I'm not sure - how many did you count?! There's one scored between the intro and the first verse, and the one I've owned up to in my blurb coming into the third verse. Thanks for you comment Pettra - I look forward to watching your first upload to see how the pro's do it! :)

  • awsome amazing.... so beautiful.... got any other pippin piano accompaniment songs? You are very gifted...

  • Stunning! What arrangement are you using (i.e., publisher, etc.)?

  • Sorry for the delay. This is my 3rd attempt to reply!!! I can only think that including a link is triggering some kind of automatic spam filter.

    In answer to your question, this is the PGV arrangement available as an online digital download from musicnotes-dot-com.
