More about this title

About the Composer: Alain Boublil

Alain Boublil is a French librettist and lyricist whose work fundamentally shaped musical theater in the late twentieth century. As the creative force behind Les Misérables, he crafted narratives that blend intimate human moments with sweeping social themes, a duality that appears throughout his catalog.

Boublil's gift lies in writing lyrics that serve the music without overwhelming it, leaving composers like Claude-Michel Schönberg room to build memorable melodies. His influence extends beyond the stage; his work has become standard repertoire for vocalists and pianists navigating contemporary musical theater.

Why we love this

This arrangement captures the vulnerability of one of musical theater's most tender moments without requiring orchestral forces. The simplified keyboard voicing opens the piece to pianists who might otherwise find full theater scores intimidating, making it an accessible entry point for students exploring contemporary musical theater repertoire.

What to expect

Warm, intimate, and quietly joyful. The song unfolds like a private conversation between two people discovering love amid chaos, built on accessible chord progressions that feel both modern and deeply human. There is longing here, but also tenderness and the comfort of being understood.

Who it's for

This arrangement suits pianists at upper-intermediate levels who are ready to tackle songs with genuine emotional weight. It works equally well for vocalists preparing auditions or students exploring how contemporary musical theater differs from classical song literature.

How to get the most out of it

  • Let the melody breathe. Avoid rushing through the song's gentle contours; this piece rewards space and simplicity over technical display.
  • Balance the left hand accompaniment as a cushion for the vocal line rather than driving it forward. The piano supports rather than leads.
  • Pay attention to how dynamics shift across the verse and chorus. Subtle changes in volume can deepen the emotional arc without requiring exaggeration.
  • Maintain even pedal changes to preserve harmonic clarity. The lush chords need air, not blur.

How to use it

Pair this with other accessible Broadway selections to introduce students to how contemporary song operates at the piano. It also serves as an excellent audition or recital piece for pianists seeking material that demonstrates musicality over technical virtuosity, or as a bridge between classical repertoire and contemporary musical theater.

Skills your students will build

  • Phrasing long melodic lines with natural breathing points
  • Balancing accompaniment textures to support rather than dominate
  • Interpreting contemporary harmonic language
  • Managing pedal control for harmonic clarity
  • Connecting piano accompaniment to vocal storytelling
