Come on Kennedy Center, five years later people are still just as interested in a recording/release of this show. Please release it for purchase. I guarantee it would be a hit.
Matt, it ain't fancy with full orchestra and whatnot, but it is one of my favorite memories: Texarkana, Texas (not kidding!!) and Ramin with his guys on their Broadgrass tour. The only thing better than his talent, is how great a regular guy he is. :-) th-cam.com/video/5Idj7_9qHYk/w-d-xo.html
This was just phenomenal...and I saw the show when Raul had pretty much lost his voice and battled through with his great acting. Just hearing Ramin sing Anthem live made the ticket worth it, and the entire cast was exceptional (especially Bryce as the Arbiter). Wish they had made a cast recording
I think poor Raul caught a cold during this and it's a bit noticeable here. But he is so amazing otherwise. Love ya Raul. I'm sure you're feeling better by now.
Ruthie and Raúl both had bronchitis, but they both did all seven performances! I saw the third to last show and it was evident that Raúl was sick, but his performance was still amazing, in places his voice may have lacked, his acting made up for it!
My favorite musical bar none. I saw the Broadway version and various other incantations in community and regional theatres and yet the biting cynicism of the Broadway version, where Florence is sacrificed as a pawn, is my favorite. It left me gutted but it also stuck with me longer than any of the other productions that had a feel good ending with Florence reuniting with her father. Such great music.
The original West End production (which is far more superior to the Broadway rewrite in my opinion) also had the ending with Florence being the sacrificied pawn. I think it works best. Florence reuniting with her father just ruins the message the show tries to convey: politics control us, playing games with our lives for nothing.
truthfully they could have picked a better cast, especially if you compare it to some of the other adaptions, this is subpar, good to see it's still around at least
I have much respect for Ramin, but this really feels like one of those miscast concerts in NYC. Nearly everyone in this production is wrong for their role. The best Chess in concert was the AEA benefit in 2003 with Julia Murney, Sutton Foster and Adam Pascal.
@@Casutama Yes, I looked him up after I watched the video and I see that he's had an excellent career, as well as the Tony nominations you mentioned, but I still didn't enjoy this performance. I am going to look up some of the other things he's done as I am unfamiliar with his work.

Yes!!
Still waiting ... 🤔
Please say you're releasing this on disc or showing it on PBS or something!! This cast is too good not to share it world-wide!
Ramin and Raul, two of my favorite Broadway stars!
I saw all 7 shows. Fantastic show, brilliant cast, specially Ramin Karimloo. I would pay for a DVD of the show...
Andrea M as would I
Hell, I'd buy the blu ray
Dan McCloskey I’d buy even a VHS if it was the only thing available...
Saaame!
Andrea M SAME
YES YES YES YES
all i want out of life is a full recording of Ramin Karimloo singing anthem

Matt, please scroll; there's an adorable cell video of this. I was there that night. Treasure it always. :-)
Searching for just that lead me here.
@@spiritproductions5213 you mean scroll in the comments on here where someone posted a link to Chess videos?
It's on one of his solo albums.
I drove from Pittsburgh to Washington DC just to see this and it was quite frankly the best musical production I have ever seen
Wish it was on DVD. Would love to see the full production of the new book.

Rachel 24601 i saw it that day too!!
I think poor Raul caught a cold during this and it's a bit noticeable here. But he is so amazing otherwise. Love ya Raul. I'm sure you're feeling better by now.
Yeah he (and I think one other cast member?) had a throat infection ):
Ruthie had bronchitis! :(

The power behind that MY LANDS ONLY BORDERS LIE AROUND MY HEART was so clean
Ramin just can’t seem to escape the Russians
First Gleb now Anatoly
Please share more of this with us.
Damn! Karen Olivo really looks like rocking the stage! So bad I was not able to come and see it!
Wonderful, I’ve got tickets for Chess in London, I really like Michael Ball, but would absolutely love to see Ramin Karimloo as Anatoly Sergievsky.
Saw the original Chess in London, underrated musical always one of my favorites
Can you guys please post the full version of 'one night in Bangkok'? 💕👍🏻
yes *please*
You tease. I wanna see the whole thing! 😩
Can you guys upload the full version of Anthem?
I would do anything for a full version of Anthem PLEASE
It should be really really really really really nice to have more official clips from this. Please?
are they going to come out with a soundtrack cause i need this in my life
This is so incredibly wonderful... I dream about having this as a DVD/Blue-ray.
I need the full version of "One Night in Bangkok"! I know, Raúl was ill, but still...
Would love to see this. Also, too bad you didn't mention Ramin's other "minor" credits - Jean Val Jean in Les Mis and the Phantom himself. :-)
Uhhh, everyone in that cast is a theatre legend who’s done that caliber of role. Literally everyone knows who Ramin Karimloo is.
Pleeeeeeeeease release the whole show! I will pay!
superchubbles Same YOU'RE GONNA GET MONEY SO RELEASE ITTT
this was an amazing show, so lucky i got to experience it.
Amazing production. I wish I could see it again!

I hope Ruthie Ann Miles makes a full recovery from that tragic accident so she can come with this to Broadway (if it transfers)
I just saw her last October in Sweeney Todd and told her I loved her in this show at the stage door!
after listening to Chess several times I would really like to hear You and I (the finale) from this production...
RAUL WAS AMAZING! BLUE DRESS LADY IS MARVELOUS OH MY WHAT IS HER NAME
SoHardToBeMe oh my gosh right??? I’m so glad I discovered Karen Olivo!!!!! I want to hear the full version of Nobody’s Side!
Ernst Uychocde *SAME SAME SAME SAMEEE*
What makes it more amazing is that apparently both of them were sick at the time.
Album release please!!!
Will a DVD/Blu Ray or Full Video ever be released since this show is no longer running?
I need this too
@@applebyjakoby don't we all 🙏🙏🙏
I wow I’d love to see this entire version
Please....more....THERE'S GOTTA BE MORE
I NEED A DVD PLEASE 😭😭😭😭😭😭
SO GOOOOOOD
Why was not I told about this, amazing
Ramin's voice comming on top of the music is just-
OMG!! YES!!
Csme here just for Ramin's Anthem
Can someone please tell me the name of the song at 1:17 ?? thank u
Endgame
One of my favorite musicals, but apart from Ramin, this cast pales in comparison to the London concert one.
Ramin is more than enough.
I love Ramin too, but I disagree about the other actors and actresses paling compared to the London concert.
Saw the original in London. Enjoyed this but it isn’t a patch on the original.
Please. Lemme get the dvd 😢
Wtf I didn't even know this was going to happen and I missed it. Where do you get info on these things.
Dallas Mark Follow broadway's channel they put up a rehersel recording and wrote the dates in the descreption
which version is this? London or Broadway?
It’s based on the West End version but a new book with added dialogues and songs reordered was written especially for this revival.
I’m so looking forward to the West End Revival
STOP TEASING ME send tix :}
Good, but nothing can beat the Swedish version.
Oh dear, oh dear.
Paloma is so hot omg

release the full recording you cowards!!!

How come this sounds so awful? Balance issues, or just bad?
22professional illness. Few of the cast were ill.
Wow, :51 is so cringe. I don't know this actor at all, but this looked like bad community theater. The dance moves are painful to watch.
This actor is called Raúl Esparza and has been nominated for several Tony Awards.
@@Casutama Yes, I looked him up after I watched the video and I see that he's had an excellent career, as well as the Tony nominations you mentioned, but I still didn't enjoy this performance. I am going to look up some of the other things he's done as I am unfamiliar with his work.
@@katwil89 If I may make a suggestion, he was phenomenal in Sondheim's "Company"
@@Casutama I’ll check that out. Thanks!
