    His rich baritone voice is so warm and comforting. It’s like a dad hugging you closer to him while reading a story.

      Mandy is a heldentenor, not a baritone. Other than that, I absolutely agree.

      @@chass1771 I don’t think you can definitively classify him as a heldentenor (not just because he doesn’t sing opera). His voice seems to naturally sit pretty low, and most of his tenor like qualities come from his unique way of singing. Listen to his high G in Move On here, he sounds like a grand baritone. I think he is one of those examples (like Warlow and Groban) where the baritenor term fits pretty well. He has easy up to the high notes that are necessary but while still possessing a robust sound.

      Michael Cerveris who played Sweeney in an acclaimed revival, Broadway legend Patty Lupone who played Mrs. Lovett in that revival, and George Hearn, who took over from Len Cariou who originated the role of Sweeney Todd. You can see Hearn and Angela Landsbury as the original Mrs. Lovett in the Great Performances video of the original production.
