The Accompanist — a fresh idea designed to support musical theatre performers preparing for auditions and performances.
When singers walk into an audition room, they’re almost always asked to perform with just a piano. At the time, most available backing tracks were full orchestral karaoke versions, which sounded great but didn’t reflect the reality of a solo piano accompaniment. The Accompanist filled that gap: a growing collection of piano-only tracks that match the original keys and tempos of well-known musical theatre songs.
The first two albums focused on modern Disney favourites — with songs from The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Newsies, and more. Since then, the series has expanded to include 14 albums, widely used by singers around the world — even making appearances on Britain’s Got Talent.
You can explore over 350 songs on The Accompanist YouTube channel, featuring carefully played piano accompaniments designed to help you rehearse, audition, or perform at your best.
