ABOUT THE CHANNEL:
Hi! My name is Mateo, I'm a professional musical theatre composer, splitting my time between Toronto & NYC right now.
On Thursdays on this channel, I post a video analyzing the music theory behind some of the great Broadway musicals of all time! In the past, I've analyzed works by Sondheim, Jason Robert Brown, Pasek & Paul, Jeanine Tesori, and Stephen Schwartz, just to name a few.
On Sundays on this channel, I post a video update of the progress I'm making on my writing projects, so you can follow along with the process as I create new musicals from scratch.
On Tuesdays on this channel, I post a video reacting to a performance by a star of musical theatre, discussing what makes them so amazing. I recently recorded a video reacting to Aaron Tveit being cast in Sweeney Todd, despite the fact that he's not a baritone.
If this sounds like your vibe, don't forget to subscribe! ✨✨✨

Fantastic😊 working on a version with guitar and the way you break it down is inspiring

When I've heard people talk about the music in this show, they say it's one of Sondheim's simplest scores. And this seems like just a nice simple standard ballad. But it's way more complex than I realized! Thank you for sharing this, the next time someone says this score is simple, I'll be pointing people to this video

Great analysis. Thank you! Fascinating how the song goes back to the simple "Who Wants to Live in New York?" as it is written diegetically within the show. But then Franklin Pierce, Inc. has the dissonant 'mental breakdown' version of the 7 notes. I prefer the original cast recording but the new one is enjoyable as well.

I love the new revival, always thought Merrily was a rather flawed book with a perfect score, which is rare. This revival brought out the best of both, I think. Thanks for diving into this one!
