00:00 - Masquerade
06:24 - Why So Silent
From Phantom of The Opera at the Royal Albert Hall (2011): In celebration of the 25th Anniversary of Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera, Cameron Mackintosh produced a unique, spectacular staging of the musical on a scale which had never been seen before. Inspired by the original staging by Hal Prince and Gillian Lynne, this lavish, fully-staged production set in the sumptuous Victorian splendour of London's legendary Royal Albert Hall features a cast and orchestra of over 200, plus some very special guest appearances.

"I have written you a fanfic -I MEAn OpeRA-! I HAVE WRITTEN YOU AN OPERA!"
THIS IS A MADNESS!
THIS IS .....OPeRAaa!
@@taelenfl27_ that sounds like what Gerald Butler Phantom would say
@@LemonedIScream13 lmao
a self-insert fanfic
🤣 OMFG why is this so perfect? I've been laughing for days now
Bit by bit, we're getting the whole show on here.
I think we (almost) have the whole show by now :D
Shhh, don't tell them. They'll start pulling things and we'll never be able to listen to the whole thing all the way through... 😭
After all these years.
Finally, I have them all.
They already kinda did it with cats so it's not a surprise they're gonna do it with to the phantom
finally i can spam clips to my friends
They threw a masquerade ball and didn't think a villain who wears a mask would show up
Masquerade De l'Opera is pretty much an annual event. The characters aside from Christine also don't know how Erik/the Phantom looks like.
@@keetard There've been some rumors about what he looks like. That was the whole point of "Punjab Lasso" earlier. Only Christine knows the Phantom looks like an ordinary man with a porcelain half-mask and slicked back dark hair (since she doesn't know it's a wig).
6:48 "I have written you a self-insert fanfic!
I mean, an opera!"
Basically Hahahahaha XD
The great fanfic writter, The Phantom.
Facts
this is literally don juan triumphant so true
Have you noticed at 6:07, when the music changes, Christine is the only one who stands still while the others are moving? It's as if she realizes, before anyone else, that the Phantom is here, and she's so scared that she freezes for a moment. Incredible! Sierra's acting in this moment is excellent!
i mean... i get what you're saying but it's pretty hard not to notice haha
@@sage4365 that's what i think too. i was actually replying to the first commenter's "have you noticed" though
Don’t like this show phantom bad British is really josh
@@joshwagner6320 ???
yes good catch!
Phantom's outfit here just oozes badassery. Great example of the incredible costume design of the whole production... well that and all the other costumes in this song, of course!
Erik*
And yes, i agree!! Everytime i watch a new phantom adaptation, i keep waiting for the Red Death performance!! Btw what's your fave Red Death? To me are: Lon Chaney's and this one (side by Gerard Butler's one)
@@la_esmeralda444 This one's always felt like the Lon Cheney Sr. one but updated with a few more bells and whistles to make it a tad flashier. The 1925 version would seem flat and lacking in flair in comparison to all the other outfits in this version.
As such, while I love the Lon Cheney Sr. Red Death outfit, the Royal Albert Hall 25th Anniversay Ramin Malik version seen here is my favorite.
@@la_esmeralda444 Also, was it really necessary to correct me about his name? We all knew who I was talking about, so like... I know his name is Erik, but I don't know. It just seemed really unnecessary.
@@paulw858 Sorry if i sound rude. I didn't mean to. It's just that calling him "Phantom", kinda make him "less human". At least in my vision, and i know the musical is reeeeally romantized, so they keep his figure more mystical, mysterious. That's something that makes me upset. I really thought you didn't know, because a lot of people i've talked to that only knew the musical didn't know about his name, so... yes. Again, sorry if sound rude :/
Atleast learn the name of costume hair and makeup department
A super cool detail I just noticed: at about 3:43 you can see Madame Giry watching Christine and Raoul as they discuss their engagement. She gets concerned and distracted, and even tries to approach Raoul, though apparently isn't able to get him to pay proper attention. It's a nice little detail to show she's realized what's going on, and also realizes what the Phantom will do if he finds out.
That is a cool detail! I love these little character interactions that often get lost in the overarching plot -- this show has a lot of them from what I can tell.
One of my favourites is not technically in the show but is in the original script: in the Don Juan rehearsal in Act II when everybody is complaining about Piangi singing the music wrong, Giry tells Christine that she sings the part well and she will do the composer's music justice, and Christine thanks her. Christine also briefly tries to help Piangi with the music. It implies Christine's musical ability but also shows that both Giry and Christine respect and understand the Phantom's music and that it's not actually 'gibberish' as Piangi may have said. I don't think this moment is really obvious in most productions or if it even is still there, though.
And then at 4:11 you can see Mme Giry talking to Raoul
Thanks to this comment I was able to notice this detail when I saw Phantom on Broadway, so thank you!
This is such a superb performance. Bravo to all.
I've always adored the entire cast's costumes here-their masquerade ensembles are breathtaking with all the sparkles, trims, and beautiful fabrics. Christine's dress is especially gorgeous, the 'Star Princess' gown looks like twilight when stars first begin to appear-that time between Day and Night, Light and Dark. Quite fitting considering her story.
You should see the star princess in its prime! grand bell shaped gorgeousness in light pink and pastel blue and purple!
As you can see, it's also a lighter colored dress to show while she's torn between Raoul and the Phantom, she gravitates towards Raoul.
A little disappointed that the staging didn't allow Erik to walk down the stairs dramatically, but the vocal performance makes up for it.
Also that Red Death costume is creepy.
yeah
out of all the theaters to perform the 25th anniversary
why Royal Albert Hall??
Thelawduck it was just going to be a concert at first. I think the venue was already set by the time they decided to perform the whole show.
Yeah him walking down the grand staircase to those notes is so eerie.
@@johnshoemakerpbc Can confirm, I just saw it on Broadway. It's chilling.
@@abigailc8829 Is that anything like the movie? It's the only version I've seen, so forgive my ignorance.
When I read Masque of the Red Death by Poe I realized how eerie and perfect it was for the phantom to dress up as the 'Red Death' (basically the bringer of the illness/Death to Prince Prospero's castle party) and show up. It's quite literally a warning. I may have just put two and two together after knowing the musical and Poe's story for years lol.
Edgar Allen Poe is the GOAT
What a fitting costume for a murderer
Christines face as she's turning around. Pure terror. She knows she can't escape him.
Love how this production put a lot of effort in incorporating drama & text than just making it as a show number!!!
+ shout out to Hadley for making such a realistic Raoul rather than a saint-like character
Hadley is the reason why I was always team Raoul
Although it is sort of heavy on exposition, lyrically most of the lines have double meanings (mostly jibing at the Phantom) and the extended dance cut when the music becomes more tonally uncertain for a moment shows Christine's anxiety.
Bro, you are aware that the Raoul in the books is an entitled man-child who gets viciously jealous at Christine even being near a man.
@@unhackerthelaziestbastardo6083 however this isn't the book version
Nothing will ever top that horn before the final chorus. Best orchestrations I've ever heard in a Phantom production
The full orchestra is the highlight of the 25th. Just unbelievable!
This production had a FOURTY-FIVE piece orchestra!
"The man's voice spoke again: 'Are you very tired?'
'Oh, tonight, I gave you my soul and I am dead!'
'Your soul is a beautiful thing, child,' replied the man's grave voice, 'and I thank you. No emperor ever received so fair a gift. *The angels wept tonight.'"*
© Gaston Leroux, "Le Fantôme de l'Opéra"
I love how the song gives you a sense of unease before the phantom actually appears. the percussion and minor chords here and there, making you feel uneasy even though you know you shouldn't, and then... boom! the phantom is back. whether you love webber or hate him, you gotta admit that this is pretty well done
Weird. This song has never made me feel uneasy. I always thought it was pretty upbeat.
I must like minor chords.
This concert is the greatest single peice of entertainment ever!!! (Pity COVID buggered up the 35 year anniversary).
It messed up the anniversary but it also allowed a huge surge of new fans who had never seen or heard of Phantom to see it because of their free showings of the 25th anniversary recording so while its sad it did lead to some good.
@@angelbechtol7873 this is so true, i watched the 25th anniversary on tv back in march and it was my first time seeing the show, i swear i’ve listened to at least one song from the show every day since and i have tickets to see the show in london in january, i’m so glad that it was made so accessible
@@angelbechtol7873 Yup I’m one of them new fans :D
Then there’s me getting into it from the 2004 movie haha
To me, the best moment of this clip is Raoul's annoyed face at 4:14.
Thank you for pointing this out to me. My day is made.
I love this version instead of the movie, they say together ‘let’s not argue’ but they sing it too softly and smiley, they clearly aren’t arguing, there’s no tension. Here, they are so like those couples who are trying to hide their couple problems during a night out haha. Raoul’s face is so relatable! Like those boyfriends who faces say ‘I wanna leave, I don’t know anyone here, what if we run into your ex, are you ashamed of me’ 😆
"Phantom" was like lightning in a bottle. Musicals don't really get better than this... Even ALW can't match it, his most successful work.
Agreed! Even Love Never Dies was good, but not nearly as phenomenal as Phantom.
He tried
@@Matt_Hatt3r I mean, I like Love Never Dies, but I don’t think it was necessarily good-
@@Matt_Hatt3r I thought we decided that never happened :P
Oh please ! .... Les Miserables,. Miss Saigon, West Side Story, Porgy And Bess ... The list goes on.
okay i was NOT expecting the mask to move. I fully jumped. And yes that outfit is badass
The effect is definitely creepy when viewed in the farther shots.
Surely one of my favorite songs of the show, it captured everything that Leroux taugh us about Erik and the masks. It's incredible how much everyone who hurted and shamed him were the real masked ones, as for him, his mask was only physical. The whole song is phenomenal, but let's all agree: Erik's entrance is the best part ❤️☠️
Hurted
hurted
@@marshmallowallen5677woww
This will forever be my favorite phantom cast and nothing will change that
Paul Stanley of KISS is MY favorite Phantom, hands down, with Gerard Butler in 2nd place and Katrina Hines (the first FEMALE Phantom) being 3rd.
thats a great opinion!!! my favorite is ben crawford, probably because he was the phantom that i saw on broadway
The actors who played Andre and Firmin were quite good
The full ensemble moment from 5:10-6:10 never fails to give me the chills!
God, Christine and Raoul look so sweet and happy when they dance together))) Hadley and Sierra are iconic in these roles)👏❤️ Also, never understood people who are angry with Raoul for trying to demand answers in this scene. Like, it’s been a few months since he proposed to her, and she agreed to marry him but has been delaying their wedding ever since and trying to hide their relationship with no reasonable explanation. Raoul only wants to know what threatens their future union, and he deserves it, he’s about to marry the woman, for heaven’s sake!
lets face it, fashion wise, phantom is much better than raoul. man lived in a cave and still has better taste than him
I know it’s been said before but Christine’s reaction to the music change around the 6 minute mark is so incredible. I love it when performers will make subtle little changes that enhance it to such a ridiculous degree that it actually improves the development of said character.
Oh, heck yeah, this song is amazing. The first time I saw this, I was already in love with the Phantom's mask, but then he comes out wearing THIS??? It was awesome! (I even made it for a Halloween costume at one point). And now I've been in the Phandom for 6 years, and have no regrets.
Oh I know right, isn’t his skull mask simply the best?!
Hadley’s Raoul is the best. In the movie, he is too okay with everything, in this play he is understandably miffed he is a secret fiancé but still has fun at the ball. So expressive!
All I await now is the part where Raoul and the others are trying to convince Christine to go with the plan. Thank you for adding masquerade, my favourite song!
their ability to do this is....astounding, I am exhausted just watching haha, they can even do these complicated dance sequences around a person who isnt dancing and is rushing around for effect as part of their role, like jesus christ, peak human performance, I can hardly believe im part of the same species
Madame Giry: “I know nothing!”
Also Madame Giry: I raised him since he was a boy and saved him from the circus and have harbored him in this opera house ever since and brought him here in the first place.
What, did Madame Giry suddenly turn into Sgt. Schultz? I half-expect her to be like, "I see nothing! I was not here! I did not even get up this morning!"
I love that little ‘come here’ gesture he does with his finger when he sees Christine before commanding her to sing for him.
I love how in 3:40 Raoul and Christine are arguing and the monkey is just dancing
3:36 Christine's and 4:13 Raoul's respective 'WTF' looks are hilarious.
"IIIII'MMMM GONNA SWIIIIING FROM THE CHANDELIEEEEER
FROM THE CHANDELIEEEEEEEEEEER!"
© Erik, probably
HAHAHAHAHA TOTALLY!!! Erik = best worst person ever 😂😂😂😂
LMAO 😂
That entrance around 6:04.. Chef's kiss. Goosebumps every time.
The level of magnificence the costumes, music, harmonies and the performances of this number have is unparalleled, I cried when I saw it live back in 2014, would love to see it live again.
Madame Giry masquerading as Madame Giry
this is broadway extravagance at its peak! THE COSTUMES!
The costume for the red death is frickin gorgeous clearly inspired from the 20s Lon Chaney version
I always loved Masquerade it was one of my favorite songs of the entire show.
6:55 It's in closeups like this that you can notice the Phantom's disfigurement, given that he had to remove his normal mask to put this costume on.
I've always wanted to see this number! I love how flashy and beautiful the costumes are!
7:26 that dramatic way to call Christine thoughhhhhhh 👁👄👁
The people dressed as monkeys are having just the best time. I love it!
Things that give me _super_ chills:
when the little music begins at 0:56
when they all whisper a chorus starting at 2:41
when the brass starts getting so exciting at 4:59 and the hit afterwards
Things that give me chills:
pretty much everything else
The best act from the whole play
Don’t mind me, I’ll be having my little freak out in the corner for the next few hours. 🎉
That costume is absolutely amazing.
Now that, is the ultimate costume to wear against enemies.
No one is screwing around with you if you are in that.
Loved the reference to México, the flag at the beginning and the ghost at the end. Just perfect.
What-🤔
@@taelenfl27_ Green, white, red (Mexican Flag) costumes with a skeleton (Death's day). Then at the end the ghost costume is a clear reference to Mexican representation of the death.
@@DiegoBarajas oh, te refieres al traje de André..?
@@taelenfl27_ si, al inicio se para entre ellos una persona vestida de blanco, se dormía la bandera y muestra la calavera.
@@DiegoBarajas wow, no me espere eso, pero me encanta la referencia :3
Any movie, any television show, any book that has a masquerade or costume ball scene, this is the song I hear in my head.
Yeah, this is a great example and probably one of the more colourful/well directed versions I've come across.
I'm so lucky that I got to watch their live performance here in the Philippines before pandemic started. Great cast, exquisite performance, beautiful costumes and the orchestra. Everything was so majestic!
They performed in manila? This cast?
@@KlarkMarquez I dont think so. I think it’s a different cast. I also watched it here in Manila back in 2012. Jonathan Roxmouth and Claire Lyon
After a being a fan for over a decade I think I finally understood what it means... good God... please upvote this so I don't get shadow banned for saying what I think this is...
If you know the purpose of these theatrics, you may aleady know, otherwise, I'll wait to expose it..
If you think I maybe silenced, screenshot me and reach out later... this is no joke. I've loved this opera for years but I think I may have just realized an evil among us...
What do you think it is?
Thanks sooooooo much andrew,michael,ramin,cameron macintosh,sierra,sarah and everyone else involved in the best musical in the whole universe for all the joy that you have brought to all your fans over the last 35 yrs thanks for everything
Such a stunning performance. This performance of masquerade and the music always stood out for me. It made me fall in love with theatre. Hopefully one day I do achieve my dream of being the lead in a theatre performance!
Thank you for posting 'Why So Silent' finally omg
Whoooooo almost a year later we got it! Thank you so much, this is such a Greta number and it is so well done in this production!
In fact, it is about 18 months.
My heart skipped a beat when I saw this in notifications :)
Our local ice cream truck uses the melody of Masquerade and my neighbor’s dogs hate it 😅
Where I live the ice cream truck also uses that melody. I always start singing along when he drives by our house 😆
Oh my god no way lmao 😂
This scene makes me cry every time. The beauty and power of it just overwhelms me. Masterful work here in every way.
This is still easily the best version of phantom I’ve ever seen
Best phantom to date. And his costume is soooo gooood
Everyone gangsta, until Erik shows up dressed as the Masque of the Red Death trying to sell his opera.
Seriously we have almost the full show on here!! I'll be waiting for Hannibal to be uploaded too
Sky??? Is that sky???
I listen to this song every Halloween, watching the costumed kids go trick-or-treating up and down my street.
WE ALMOST HAVE THE FULL SHOW!! I've been subscribed to this channel since corona started and thank you for the videos! I LOVE BROADWAY!!
This ain't Broadway though.
The wrong side of the Atlantic. It`s the Royal Albert Hall.
@@suicidebiscuits9781
Same thing, though.
@@vilandra. to-may-to, to-Mah-to
Now THAT'S a MASK!
Please please show Prima Donna too!! This 25th anniversary casting were so great that every character shines!!! Please the Charlotta too was brilliant!!
0:57~1:25 I love this part :) It's like a dancing teddy bear
Beautiful and unique costumes, engaging and meaningful choreography. I've never stopped loving musical theatre, but watching this reevoked that love. So many bodies on stage, but it never felt cluttered or distracting. Such amazing talents in this art form, while most people only notice the actors. This is easily my favorite musical, and this number gave me chills. I haven't gotten chills from a production in some time. What a complete breath of fresh air; I wish I had seen this in person.
This 25th anniversary show is so good. So glad they filmed it.
Masquerade is probably my favorite song performance. So well done
Every time I watch this, the Phantom's appearance just gives me goosebumps. There is just so much menace in his voice, and his body language (and how he utilizes his mask) is simply spectacular. In my mind, there is no doubt that Mr. Karimloo is a Master of this role.
His mask is absolutely horrifying I love it
All the beautiful costumes in this number!
The laughing qt the start lmao
Very good
The costumes in this production are AMAZING!
Theatre manager: "Such a pity that the Phantom can't be here!"
Phantom: Oh, so I can't can I? Well, think again Monsieur.
Christine knew before any one else the the phantom was there he truly was inside her mind
One of my favourite songs in the show glad its finally on TH-cam
Also a star in this is the venue, the Royal Albert Hall, built in 1867-81. 150 years old and still a fully functioning hall!
I like a full cast of live performers for this scene. The original used mannequins for some of the people on the stairs.
I think the only way I can come close to explaining my happy place is by saying to combine the masquerade part of this video, the moments of Paprika with the parade of dreams, and any moment of Madoka Magica with the witches. That is my happy place, the aesthetic I suppose you could say, that I most long for. Which is to say, I absolutely adore this:')
For someone who hates musicals, phantom will go down as my favourite just because of this part of the show.
I was fascinated by the cast of Half Woman'/ Half Men costume. Very fascinating and beautiful!!😍♥💕
I have waited for this scene for my entire life. So happy that I finally got to see it. This was the very scene that made me fully immerse myself in the epic story of The Phantom of The Opera. So precious. Never gets old. Truly, truly great art indeed.
マスカレードのキャストの規模に脱帽‼️
客席からの登場もファンには堪りませんね😘
I literally have the dvd but I am so excited every time they upload a new song!!
I’m so happy! This just made my week!! Gotta love new POTO 25th releases ☺️🥰
I’m addictet to the phantom of the opera andrewloyed Webber has done a magical opera I could watch it evrty day
Finally! Masquerade is on the channel!
The build-up from 4:58 is just _chef's kiss_
Phantom: *calls Raoul a slave of fashion*
Also Phantom: *crashed the masquerade in full Book of Life cosplay*
Technically when he said slave of fashion he meant 'following trends/the crowd' and not necessarily... you know... outfits.
(It is a funny joke but I've seen a lot of people get the line wrong lol)
Red Death, but yes
love how in this number raoul is dressed like a member of the black parade
6:04 POV: You're on your phone at work and the supervisor materializes out of thin air
This production is the best
From all the costumes, the cast , staging and everything.
I want to see this whole show in full again! It's my favorite! Please bring back!!! I miss it so!
Now THAT'S a Mask of the Red Death!
Yes! I fell in love with this scene and was sad that I couldnt find a nice version. This has made my week!
A masked man it's killing people here, guys. Let's do it a masquerade festival! he will not appear.... What a splendid idea!
If I'm not wrong, the masquerade is an anual event and Phantom also left the opera for a month (at least they didn't see or hear him) so... yah I guess this idea is not very bad 🤣
