More about this title

About the Artist: Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle

Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle brought their combined vocal artistry to "A Whole New World," the iconic love duet from Disney's 1992 animated film Aladdin. Both artists were established in R&B and pop music before lending their voices to this Oscar-winning song, which became one of the most recognizable Disney duets of the 1990s.

Their recording of the song defined a generation's memory of the film and introduced millions of listeners to the magic of Alan Menken and Tim Rice's songwriting. The duet's success demonstrates how exceptional vocal chemistry can elevate a film score into the cultural mainstream.

Why we love this

This arrangement captures the soaring romanticism that made the film's version so unforgettable, landing perfectly for pianists who want to play something instantly recognizable and deeply satisfying. The E-Z Play Today format keeps the melody clear and accessible while maintaining the song's emotional sweep, making it equally valuable whether you're playing at a wedding, in a recital, or simply reconnecting with a beloved film score.

What to expect

Romantic and cinematic, with the kind of sweeping warmth that made this song an instant classic. The melody dances between tender vulnerability and soaring hope, creating a piece that feels both intimate and grand at the same time.

Who it's for

Piano students ready for early intermediate repertoire who want to perform something with immediate emotional impact and name recognition. Teachers seeking concert pieces that appeal to audiences of all ages, particularly those who grew up with the film or simply love accessible Disney music.

How to get the most out of it

  • Shape the melody with a legato touch through the opening phrases; these moments need to breathe like a vocal line, not bounce like a dance number.
  • Balance the accompaniment carefully so it never overpower the song's central tune. The harmonic support should feel like a gentle cushion beneath the melody.
  • Find the moments where the song builds intensity and allow your dynamics to follow the emotional arc rather than staying at one volume level throughout.

How to use it

Open a recital or concert with this to immediately connect with your audience, or place it as a bridge between classical and contemporary repertoire to show your students' musical range. It also works beautifully as an encore when you want to leave listeners humming on their way out.

Skills your students will build

  • Legato melodic phrasing and vocal-style interpretation on piano
  • Dynamic shaping across a long melodic arc
  • Balance between melody and accompaniment
  • Fluent reading across five pages of narrative music
