thank you for your passion e dedication!
너무 잘 봤습니다. 감사합니다.
is the original lead sheet available anywhere? id love to have go! (greaaaat vid btw)
Beautiful
Brilliant! Thanks for this work.
One question: At 8'20'' what is the meaning of the parenthesis around D?
Was about to say something, but then he put it into words better than I could, so I’ll just say thank you guys! Brought a little tear. Made me feel.
Thank you Cuckoo! That means a lot to me!

Nahre sol's text conversations sound like they're directed by david lynch
so true
Or by Giorgio Lanthimos
I've always liked the way your videos take us through the process. It's not just "Here's a song I arranged" or "this is what I learned" you take us with you through the research process- how you learned it and show all the details, what was easy and what may have been a little tricky. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you so much!!!
czcams.com/video/4kS5O2SbbK0/video.html❤️❤️❤️❤️
It's a beautiful song. And an amazing journey that you take us with the arrangement. Mario's words in the end say it all.
Thank you so much!!
czcams.com/video/4kS5O2SbbK0/video.html❤️❤️❤️
Please please please please PLEASE, put this piece on streaming services, it’s so good.

Just . . . fantastic. Nahre. So brilliant.
czcams.com/video/4kS5O2SbbK0/video.html😚❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Couldn't even think of a comment for over an hour. Just put it on replay and left my world for a while. Thanks upon thanks.
What a special comment, thank you! 🧡
czcams.com/video/4kS5O2SbbK0/video.html❤️❤️❤️
I just wanna say that I admire you a lot since you're so obviously such a dedicated and talented musician. You really bring the meaning to the word "artist". Please keep on doing this and maybe even consider making a piano course since you would bring a lot to the table :D
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this, I really appreciate it!
czcams.com/video/4kS5O2SbbK0/video.html❤️6❤️❤️
You guys took it from my brain, you polished it, you gave it wings like I said, you turned into an angel , you returned to my heart and then all my heart did was whispered it to my eyes and I started to cry... Mario Romano (such a poet)
This might just be my favourite CZcams video ever
When the Final Arrangement was revealed , I just cried . I had a pretty bad 2020 and had doubts of 2021 being a good year . But this song gave me hope and inspiration to move on and to remember the beauty of music and the moments i share with people ! This is wonderful ! lots of lve to Nahre Sol and the rest ! This is a Life Changer and for the better !
This arrangement is breathtaking in the purest sense. I don’t think I dared to breathe during the entire thing for fear that I’d miss a note. Captivating and lovely work, Nahre! You’re an inspiration to young composers like me!
The BBC had someone writing music very like this in the 80s and early 90s. Not easy writing but simple to the ear - rather like Menuhin saying about Gypsy violinists "How does one write this down?!" I'm rather touched that you got this wonderfully relaxed and natural sound in the box. I love it!
the notion of genre has held back music for so long . when you break free you get this kind of music
Nahre, the stilted portrayal of the back and forth collaboration between you and your good friend Julius Meltzer was hysterically funny. Your humor disarms and draws us in. Your art soothes and inspires us. I think I can say that for at least your ½ million plus subscribers, you have achieved your stated goal of ‘spreading enthusiasm for music’. (the world is so much better because you’re in it!) Thank you!!!
"I get emotional," the composer says. Me, too. I was blinking back a few tears by the end. Just gorgeous! And what a treat to be given a view into the arranging and production process. -Tom
Dear Nahre, Don't ever let the pressure of having to outdo your last best self cause you to stop, ever. Less than half your amazing worth still blows me away. I hope you have a wonderful time in your new diggings. Listening to you with love from Washington
As a pianist/composer in the making I can't even begin to describe how helpful your videos are. I'm a Big fan of your work, thanks for everything you share with us 🖤
The process was from beginning to end was great to watch and the final product is lush and beautiful. Congrats to you and Julius. The duplets over the 3/4 has such a great feel. You do great work here Nahre. Thank you.
Arranging is an excellent way to strengthen all aspects of composition, by showing us how much we have to work with *around* the melody and the general harmonic structure - voicing, instrumentation, rhythmic drive, dramatic ebb and flow, playability per the given ensemble or solo instrument... I play piano and like to sing songs like this but I cannot play at the same level of musical elaboration if I ALSO have to sing at the same time, so I arrange or improvise differently depending upon whether I am the singer.
I'm.... I'm speechless. I started watching your videos after the WIRED video and I absolutely do not regret subscribing to you haha. This literally made my day.
이런 음악을 무료로 듣게 해주시다니... 감사합니다.
I know this video is kinda old now but I am begging you Nahre to put this arrangement on streaming services. I have gone back to this piece now and again and it’s seriously one of the most beautiful arrangements I’ve ever heard and I just wish there was a more accessible way to listen to it.
I love the extreme formality in the back and forth section🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
and I got goosebumps while listening to it
The opening of the final version, chills and tears :)
Thank you Nahre, and your friends, for taking the time to adapt this masterpiece. It brings joy in a dim world. You made me smile.
Thank you so much 🧡
Mario seems like a very poetic and warm
guy. The intelligent things he must say...
Also, how great was it for Nahre to show us the process...its a gem. As for the result? Simply magnificent. I don't see myself getting to that level in a long time
It is so moving! Thank you so much!
it's been a while since a song could bring tears to my eyes.. thank you, Nahre!
Nahre, jazz has been waiting for you for 50 years!💙🙏
Your videos are just soul nurturing, thank u Nahre.
Just beautiful work by everyone. Thanks for your joy and generosity!
Thank you so much!!
The Wes Anderson framing, captioning, and back and forth of the video edit is so cool and fun.
And I thought I was being formal with my emails. You just took it to a whole nother level.
Great arrangement btw
Through the whole song, I was imagining a story of a wedding, all the thoughts running through the brides as they prepare for a big chapter in their lives.. Your videos are so well crafted :') i think it gives me, a casual viewer a huge meaning in your arrangements and makes me appreciate them more. Thank you
Nahre, You're videos just keep getting better and better: the editing, the style and even your ideas. I like that you aren't just repeating past successful topics you have done but moving onto other aspects of music like re-arranging. - Justice Constantine
Your videos have always improved on the ones before. Now, you have reached the level of exquisite!
Thank you for these!!
Thank you so much!!
I am not formally trained and just know how to sequence music using a DAW and synthesizers/samplers but I love learning the intricacies of how to compose formal music because there's a lot that can be applied to other types of music.
Thanks for sharing it's a lovely piece!
Ms. Sol you have a gift to make exquisitely delicate sweet desserts out of whatever is left in the compositional fridge. This was apparent in your submission for “5 Musicians, 1 Scale”.
But in this case the musical fridge was exceedingly well stocked by Mr Romano, and you appear to have lucked out with a Michelin-starred sous-chef in Mr. Meltzer.
Synergy indeed.
That portamento at the intro part just plucks my heartstrings. I just get emotional when it slides up 🥲💖
Mario's album "Valentina" is genuinely one of the best jazz albums I have ever heard.
The arrangement sounds just like Bar Piano, it‘s really gentle, people will listen to it in a nice mood. No hurry, just really enjoy in this moment!
The opinion of the composer is so wholesome ❤
I mean... WOW ! 7:58 gives me so many goosebumps. It's so delicate and warm.
Around 9:29 to 9:34, I think it was. I noticed that my tears have been welling up underneath my eyes. It's beautiful.💕
His words at the end! So accurate. Whispered it straight to my eyes!
I live how you’re so passionate that you never half *** a single thing. When you want to get into a style, you explore it to its fullest possibility. Gorgeous. I will be playing this over snd iver again just like I have with sifting which I listen to like every day whilst running or walking. You are truly an awe inspiring musician.
czcams.com/video/4kS5O2SbbK0/video.html❤️❤️❤️
Sublime... Nahre & Julius... brought tears to my eyes.
So much work but also heart put into this... you can only thank the people who take the time to do this kind of thing
It must be a great feeling to hear the original creator to give such nice words about rearrangement directly. Great work.
This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard, Nahre. Thank you for this gift.
If there was a place where I could listen to your rearrangements/original pieces that you do in your genre exploration I would be in heaven!
Nahre, you are the best! Thank you for all you do for music!
been a fan since a long time. Really enjoy learning form your musical journey and being part of it as a spectator and well wisher !
Thank you so much!!!

Lovely. I'm glad music like this is still being written, and thanks for the intro to Mario.
At 7:36 I knew it was amazingly splendid! So smooth and tasteful. Had to write this comment, now I'm going back to listen to the rest of this.
“The melody has never finished and never started” is so inspired! Danke! And the collaborative arrangement of the theme is above and beyond the original yet is an instrumental variation OF it. So the “work” is the ongoing multi-phase unfurling of an idea...which viewers of this video will no doubt improve-ise on their instrument at home or who knows how the life of this tune will go on but certainly IT WILL. Thank you for sharing the wealth.
All of your collaborators are great! I hope they know how much people appreciate their appearing here.
Nahre, thank you for sharing with us all one of the loveliest gifts an accomplished student could give to a beloved mentor. Delightful. Exquisite. Yet another musical reason to choose kindness and love - here’s to a world filled with people who make living worthwhile through art.
Bar 17-18 those chords when I first heard that mmmmmmm wow! Had to rewind loads 🙋♀️
that was so beautiful AAA !!!!!
So gentle and elegant...beautiful
Nahre learns, we all learn with her! Win win.💪😎😎
Wow, what a nice collaboration between very talented peoples, bravo Nahre Sol!
That was grand, Nahre!!!
Keep up the great work and let us know about it.
It's a million bucks!!!!
The effort in the editing is spot on
May God bless you all for sharing your gifts with the world. I swear and commit to give the world more than what I receive from life.
That was beautiful, it actually brought a tear to my eye. Mario said it best
beautiful . im hearing both jazz and classical without ano one of them taking over from the other . verry serene
What an incredibly beautiful, emotional arrangement! If I were the composer of the original piece I would have cried too
So subtle and sensitive!! Congrats, amazing arrangement 💞
Pieces like this are why I got into music theory. I have chills, Nahre. Thank you for sharing your art and the art of the creation itself.
As an amateur musician this is inspiring me to go on a journey of discovery...thank you!
That's what youtube was made for.
I made a similar comment scrolled down and read this! ..it must be true! :)
@@ThomasHope73 sure is
The quality of your content keeps improving. Wonderful arrangement, Nahre.
The email dialogue 😂, love it!
Phenomenal and outdone yourself as usual
Mario sounds like he might be a mob boss. I like it!
This is a GORGEOUS arrangement! Thank you for sharing this music with the world.
We don’t deserve this. Beautiful.
Dam man, what an amazing video, loved everything about it, the editing was really unique and the arrangement was so pretty. It's really rare to see an arranger's process and this makes me really appreciate these things even more now!!
There's so much passion cradled in a supportive network of friendships and artistry. Sheer delight!! Thanks for your videos!!
Beautiful, Nahre! I liked the meter change to 3 and your piano comping in the beginning reminded me of Chopin's E minor prelude. Very nice voicings, substitutions and voice leading.
Growing up on Mr. Bean's holiday, I absolutely LOVED it and still do today. I'm surprised though that it didn't gain popularity here in the U.S. Thank you for the rundown on Rowan's career🙌🙌🙌
Couldn't help but tear up a bit on this one. What a great piece of music. Both pieces! I love your channel so much man. SUCH a huge inspiration every time you put out a new video.
And it whispers gently in my ears, "And if you please, go to sleep"
I love watching the development of the whole thing. This final result is just great. Love the nostalgic and sentimental feel of it.
Beautiful treatment! I agree with Mr. Romano: You gave His original passion-born artwork wings ... like an Angel. Or, perhaps a delicate Butterfly ... light and airy, yet with clear drive & direction. You handled this with such care & respect. The gratitude expressed by Mr. Romano for your work speaks volumes!
What a beautiful song and a great arrangement. It's great to see what goes into making something like this, it makes me appreciate the music even more!
Beautiful arrangement! I hear and feel jazz touches there, your "bag of tricks" is expanding :)
Arranging is an underrated art form, thanks for giving it some love. Bless you for using live players.
Im so happy to see your hard work progress. Splendid as always, nahre sol! It’s really beautiful. Looking for more like this in the future❤️
Wonderful video as always, and a beautiful arrangement, congratulations!
I am a huge fan of the content you put on this channel, Nahre, it's incredibly inspiring, educational and beautiful. Thank you so much for all these videos!
Thank you so much for having undertaken this and sharing this Nahre. You’re amazing and this arrangement is amazing. I was listening to it on repeat with tears in my eyes. Absolutely gorgeous.
This arrangement was just All throughout fabulous! Keep composing and doing what you love! Once again thank you for such an uplifting arrangement!
impressive and beautiful
Thank you!!!
Really great job!!! All the production is so well-done. Thanks for sharing awesome content.
Thank you so much for sharing your gift with us!
Been following your videos for a while and it's become a real inspiration for me to play and compose on piano. You have such beautiful melodies and harmonization ideas so keep it up Nahre.
Lov u
What an amazing arrangement. Truly beautiful.
Thank you for this wonderful material. When I heard the first arrangement I was so disappointed...but when I got to the final version my heart was smiling. This is really a Labor of Love.
