I See the Light (from 'Tangled') (for Piano Trio) - Alan Menken

Alan Menken’s enchanting duet “I See the Light” from Tangled is presented here in a lyrical trio arrangement for violin, cello, and piano. The original structure is faithfully preserved, allowing the beloved Disney melody to unfold with its warm cinematic atmosphere. The solo instruments perform the vocal lines, sharing the expressive phrases of the duet, while the piano carries the remaining musical elements. The accompaniment thoughtfully blends orchestral textures with guitar-inspired patterns from the original soundtrack, creating a rich yet transparent chamber sound. Certain passages have been omitted to ensure practical balance and playability in live performance. This arrangement beautifully captures the romantic glow and gentle lyricism of the lantern-lit scene, making it ideal for recitals, weddings, and Disney-themed concerts. The required positions extend up to 6th position for violin and 6th position for cello, offering expressive projection and lyrical depth.
