I hadn't known this since last year. Turns out my mother is obsessed with it. She watched it seven times but before my brother and i were born. After that she couldn't pay for the tickets. So we bought her tickets for her birthday. You should have seen her face. I've never seen such a joy on her.
My son bought me the monkey carillon for my birthday! He had it shipped from abroad, since it was not available in out country. I appreciated it soooo much!😊
Personally.phantom is number2 for me behind les mis with west side story third. I love seeing different productions of them. They’re the same but different. I also saw love never dies a few times and enjoyed that just as much. Introduced my kids to musicals at a young age and they’re just as hooked as I am
Love Sierra's Christine!!! georgeous looking, beautiful voice, stellar acting, and powerful raw emotions. No wonder ALW said she is the best Christine and is his favorite. Same as Ramin! I believe these two are the best Phantom and Christine pair so far with their off the chart chemistry in the show! Love their performance!
Ramin is the best Phantom for me because he has one of the best voice’s ever but also he is such an amazing actor. Every second of dialogue and non-dialogue is executed perfectly. Sierra is the best Christine in my opinion because her voice is literally that of an angel and her acting is fantastic. During music of the night she plays an entire scene perfectly without singing or speaking. And then these two together. I mean when you put an angel together with another angel you will get the 25th anniversary: perfection.
Ramin says when he was interviewed that playing the phantom was hard on his body. I think all the phantoms did an exceptional job. I wish I saw the production in england.
Love the way at 9:42 when Christine goes to touch the side of his face with the mask, the Phantom seems the get nervous and panic, quickly grabbing her hand and redirecting it. And then he looks at it and in my opinion seems a little surprized himself, and like he's trying to figure out what to do with her hand quickly cause that wasnt part of the plan lol.
Love Ramin and Sierra together as Phantom and Christine. I am so happy that I have the soundtracks to both Phantom and Love Never Dies with them singing the leads. Truly a beautiful combination. 💜💜💜
Ramin has the most beautiful tenor voices . Perfect for the Phantom . Sierra as well is the perfect Christine. Her voice is amazing and incomparable to ANY other female vocalist . Music of the night is such a sensual, breath taking and beautiful yet sad song . One of my favorites
At 14:48, I just realized that the Phantom was also leaning in to touch his face to Christine's. Maybe he just completely forgot that she would feel his mask, or she made him feel that he didn't have it on at all. Either way, it's a bit sad that when he actually tries to embrace someone, she immedialty curls back in fear. I'm wondering if his anger was because she ran away, or because HE was the one who leaned in and caused her to feel the mask, in turn causing her to run away. In other words: I wonder if he was mad at her, or at himself. Subtle details.
If I'm not mistaken, this recording was released in full during COVID lockdown. Even after having listened to it like 500 times, I spent those 3 hours absolutely mesmerised, frozen on the sofa. Best musical of all times.
you should hear norm lewis. not to take anything from this phantom, but norm lewis is the most powerful phantom i've heard. probably because he does it in baritone instead of tenor.
My wife and I went to see Phantom on Saturday at Her Majesty’s Theatre in Londons West End. To say we were blown away is an understatement. Magnificent and emotional
Phenomenal. The male actor especially. He has some prosthetics for the face and his lips don't close still he manages to sing so well! Best rendition ever.
Ramin is and will always be the best Phantom ever ! His voice is just phenomenal . And he doesn’t get tired , just keeps right along with all that makeup and wig and all that stuff on
My first ever musical or opera was seeing the Phantom in Pantages Theatre in Toronto 1999...I was FREAKING BLOWN AWAY! The staging and performances were incredible and the music...JUST WOW! When I seen it Paul Stanley from Kiss was the Phantom...his evil laugh echoing through the theater was wild!...Stanley was the last Phantom of the 10 year run at the Pantages Theatre.
My wife and I went to see the show at Her Majesty’s Theatre in Londons West End on Saturday. It is the most amazing show on Earth. I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. Only one more year to go in London before it finishes.
I definitely think this version for the 25th anniversary is my favorite the 2 leads have amazing chemistry and you could tell that Christine is mesmerizing by the phantom in music of the night
This is one of the first musicals I saw on my 18th Birthday and it will always be my favourite. Watching this 31 years later has given me goosebumps. Amazing!!!!
Ich habe das Musical mehrmals gesehen, auch in seiner ersten Spielzeit in London und diese Darstellerin ist wahrscheinlich die schönste, die ich jemals in dieser Aufführung gesehen habe. Man sieht sie und ist gefühlsmäßig sofort hingerissen und total von ihr fasziniert. Eine Ausstrahlung, die all das Schöne in der Welt darstellt, einfach fantastisch. Dazu beide Gesangsparts absolut großartig.
I’m a Japanese high school student. These days, I often listen to this to improve my listening English skill. One day, I want to see “The Phantom of the Opera” in English in the theater outside Japan.
I’m actually an American high school student learning Japanese! Listening to music is definitely a great way to learn. Do you like any Japanese music that you might be able to recommend?
They didn’t have Japanese when I went to high school😢. I would have enjoyed it, I lived in Japan until I was 11, sadly I forgot most of it, my mother is Japanese and father American, he was in the Navy. I’m so sad I don’t remember very much and didn’t teach my kiddos. However, I am training my Great Dane in Japanese😅. She doesn’t care if I make a mistake😆.
Paris, you can lick me in sleep, Derek Ivie are you all right? And or Kurt is that you licking me with Joslyn and odd you learn vagina after their bubble bath and shampoo and sometimes a shower?
Just saw it in Monte Carlo in december 2023. With Ramin amazing in live , his voice is the same since then. Such powerful and magistral acting. A real discover for me. Now " he will sing song in my head" forever
I watched the entire show (this version) yesterday and cannot get the music out of my head. I will forever regret not being able to see it live on Broadway! Absolutely magnificent production snd performances.
My first musical experience was Phantom of the Opera and was amazing, unforgettable. I could watch this musical thousand times and never cease to amazing me.
Phantom is the best musical!! I have seen it so many times with the tours and I will continue to do that until the end of me. Because Phantom will go on forever!
I just watched Phantom on broadway for the first time a few weeks ago and now it is my favorite musical XD. Ramin and Sierra make this video feel more like a live show and I love it.
I've always wanted to see this one stage on Broadway and I live in Brooklyn so it wouldn't be that hard its just that I can't afford to go..but omg I would love to see this in person and if I do I better bring tissues cause the music is so beautiful it brings tears to my eyes 😭🥰🤦🏼♀
@@phillydilly37 No, this was the stage performance that was filmed for the 25th anniversary. It's the one that can be bought on dvd/blu ray. His name is Ramin Karimloo, hers is Sierra Boggess.
I went to watch the currently one and I loved it, but this one seems to be better, the stage is biger. Nowadays it runs on His Majesty's theatre, where is this one?
I've watched the Phantom of the Opera in Manila, Philippines in 2012 and in 2019 with Jonathan Roxmouth as the Phantom and Claire Lyon as Christine. It was unforgettable and I love the music.
Phantom is my absolute favorite musical! I love musicals and musical theater. Andrew Lloyd Webber is a genius. I saw Les Miserable in London several years ago when my best friend and I went to the UK. I had seen Phantom twice, so since my friend had not seen either we decided on Les Mis. I have the DVD of Phantom and it's nearly worn outl
Nadim Naaman is the greatest artist I have ever heard and watched.... I have been dancing since I was 6, music and dancing have always been so natural and vital part of me like breathing... I cannot remember to have been touched so deeply by someone's performance! This is true ART which I feel blessed I had the chance to watch live in Sofia! Thanks so much!!!...
Absolutely loved this show, loved being in the opera house. I think Sarah Brightman was Christine....it was alon time ago. But still get goosebumps listening to it today. Didn't really know tthe storyline then but love the music. Michael Crawford my favorite phantom now.
It's real magic, perfect altogether. Staging, acting, singing, music, every tiny detail. I watched the Broadway production this fall, and I was disappointed. I got the sit in the middle of the mezzanine, and I barely heard Cristine's songs and duets. Phantom and the other casts were somehow better, but the only song that filled the theatre with the sound as it should was a prerecorded main theme. It was so frustrating, but the show was supposed to be great, so, I started looking at what I missed here. The production is almost 35 years old and still sold out, how is it actually possible? At first, I watched the film. It was okay as a romantic teenage movie. Don't take me wrong, I like good romantic teenage movies, and this one was okay, but nothing special. I recall I saw it some time ago and forgot easily. I dug further. I read some reviews and critics. And finally found the video of the 25th Anniversary. And everything just came to place. This is how it should be done. Now I watched a lot of different phantoms on youtube, and some of them don't impress me at all (even classical ones - Michael Crawford and Colm Wilkinson. Yes, I believe they can survive that) some are so good that it's not possible to pick the best (John Owen-Jones, Norm Lewis, Ramin of cause), but no one is performing the duet with his Christine connecting so perfectly and has so strong chemistry as Ramin with Sierra. Maybe others weren't so lucky to have good quality video records with their own best partners?
We're considering going next year since it's the last Broadway production but your experience gives me pause. I'd be taking the entire family and it isn't cheap so I'm asking will it be worth it? I've seen it once in Seattle but this would be the 1st for our kids and I'm hoping it lives up to their expectations.
@@TheSkyline965 idk if it's too late for you or not, but I saw this production three times over the course of ten years and it was a joy every single time. Completely worth your time and money. Watch it before it closes!
Wow what a wonderful treat to have this come out now.. Tomorrow is my birthday and this production with Sierra and Ramin are my absolute favorite! My biggest wish though, is that it be shown in its entirety. I'll think about this while blowing out my candles ❤️ Thank you so much!!!
Now, Realising my husband and father were Narcissic ,this Means so much more to me!. Than when I saw it at a young age. The feelings that I get when listening are very different.!!! I have always loved and still love this music , now at the age of 79 I have the chance to sing this in my choir .Love It!! Thanks A.L.W.
The £180 I paid to see this was worth every penny, and since I didn't get enough of it, went and saw the live broadcast at the cinema the following evening! I was obsessed and still am. This performance made me calm down and forgive the casting of Gerard Butler in the movie. In fact, I smile whenever I watch the movie knowing that Ramin's version is immortalised and within reach
Gerard Butler is awesome as the phantom. His phantom is more realistic, more human and has such an emotion, a passion, a seductive mystic the other phantoms on Broadway just don't have or ever will. Ramin is great, well trained like other opera singers, but no matter how well they sing, personally I don't want a theater actor for the movie. It's too dramatic. Broadway isn't the same as film.
In sleep he sang to me, In dreams he came… that voice which calls to me and speaks my name… And do I dream again? For now I find the Phantom of the Opera is there - Inside my mind… Sing once again with me our strange duet… My power over you grows stronger yet… And though you turn from me, to glance behind, The Phantom of the Opera is there - Inside your mind… Those who have seen your face draw back in fear… I am the mask you wear… It’s me they hear… Your/My spirit and your/my voice, in one combined: the Phantom of the Opera is there - inside your/my mind… He’s there the Phantom of the Opera Beware the Phantom of the Opera In all your fantasies, you always knew that man and mystery… …were both in you… And in this labrinth, where night is blind, the Phantom of the Opera is there/here - inside your/my mind Sing, my Angel of Music! He’s there, the Phantom of the Opera… Sing! sing! sing for me!
Greetings from the Philippines A Spiritual & Artistic Country With People Young & Old Who Dabbles in Music, Enjoys Sharing with Everyone & is Full of Gifted Musicians. This Phantom of the Opera is the Most Beautiful Although Somewhat Eerie Romantic Story, Outstanding Vocal Performance, Scenic Drama & Best Acted Musicale, A Memorable Collection of Songs, Most Wonderful Symphony Orchestra - Worthy of All Movie & Theater Awards.
It's closing in London too? Just saw it in NY and it's closing soon here. I was consoling myself thinking it'd still be going over there, but I guess not 😢
My first exposure to this music was in 1991, when we played the OST of this musical in Concert Band class. I was in 8th grade, and I've loved it ever since.
Excellent both in lyric and in melody as well as in both sound and sense, this song has made The Phantom of the Opera everlastingly immortal! The non-human phantom here is more "humanistic" than the live human beings. Please keep on singing this classic! Thanks for sharing! Peter Chen @ Taiwan
I love this play. I can't enough of it. Ha. The music is so good and tells a great story. I read the book and saw it live performance when it was in Sacramento. I wish I could see the English production.
My wife took me to this Phantom in san francisco. I had never experienced anything like this.Never have I ever enjoyed anything as much as this. The music is Top Shelf as well as all the performances. I watched these videos and it took me back to the stage. I will never forget what I experienced seeing this in the theatre. I so agree with you
Really fantastic! I watched Phanton of the Opera on Broadwajy for the first time in 1994. I loved it, so that I watched it again in Madrid-Spain some years ago.
I love that part in “Past The Point Of No Return” where Christine lifts the hood off of The Phantom! It’s almost like she’s playing Peekaboo with The Phantom there!
To anybody who's reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the darks thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind right now. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life. Have a nice day
Pray the God to help you and him. When he dies you will love him, his passion and understsnd that you were really loved deeply, at least once, yet you were not , could not return lthis love . Oh my dear it is too late now.
Master of the masters, King of the kings, then, Song of the songs, again..... Believe? Hope? Love? ❤❤❤The Savior died for you and me.... We reborned. ❤
I have always had an affinity for Phantom of the Opera because it open at Her Majesty Theater in London on 10/09/1986 which was the day I turned 19 years of age.
Me too. Did you read the book, that begins at the day poor Eric was born? I LOOOOVE that book. It tells his whole story. I've never really understood why he's considered evil. She should have shown him that he is lovable and should have given everything to really get to him. If she really loved him, she would have. And I find, after reading the book, there are some things that are endearing about Eric. Much more, he was even a particularly sensitive, attentive and special person. He just despairs of the world. The people who saw in him only the disfigured monster. All he searched for was love, as every human being does, that never had the love of the own mother, but probably failed because of not being able to feel love for himself. This is so tragic and somehow extremely Of course there is a lot more symbolism in it and we shouldn't just look at it from one and especially not only from the obvious point of view. Phantom of the opera, for me, is the most amazing musical...and the book is something you should read, if you feel sympathy and compassion for Eric already after watching Phantom of the Opera. It is somehow very unfair that a person should be damned who never learned to love himself because his own mother was so incapable. Because the inability actually lies with the mother and also the crippling, how I would call it. Not with the child. How unfair is it then please, indeed downright gruesome, that a person should be damned because, precisely because his own mother never showed him the love for him .. her child, in the end he may not be saved or run to his ruin, or perhaps damned maybe even in the eyes of a higher power precisely because he never learned to love himself. Well, I definitely can't imagine that, because that would be so simple, so insignificant and meaningless. Such a being should experience grace and mercy through true love. Real, true love .. God .. CAN ONLY BE THAT WAY!!!
I hadn't known this since last year. Turns out my mother is obsessed with it. She watched it seven times but before my brother and i were born. After that she couldn't pay for the tickets. So we bought her tickets for her birthday. You should have seen her face. I've never seen such a joy on her.
motherhood can make you poor, for sure.
What a lovely way to show your mother your appreciation for her sacrifice and love for you! Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
That is such a beautiful gift. I'm sure she absolutely loved and appreciated it
Thou who honour thy parent shall be praised.
My son bought me the monkey carillon for my birthday! He had it shipped from abroad, since it was not available in out country. I appreciated it soooo much!😊
My mother has a M.A. in Theater so I grew up with all the classics. But Phantom is the show that made me LOVE musicals! It will always be my favorite.
Maybe you can recommend me some Theater classics and musicals :)
Personally.phantom is number2 for me behind les mis with west side story third. I love seeing different productions of them. They’re the same but different. I also saw love never dies a few times and enjoyed that just as much. Introduced my kids to musicals at a young age and they’re just as hooked as I am
Same!
Same
❤❤❤🎶
Love Sierra's Christine!!! georgeous looking, beautiful voice, stellar acting, and powerful raw emotions. No wonder ALW said she is the best Christine and is his favorite. Same as Ramin! I believe these two are the best Phantom and Christine pair so far with their off the chart chemistry in the show! Love their performance!
I saw the Phantom twice in London at the time when Sierra was Christine. It was amazing!
who is the phantom?
@@marialidiacalcagno469 I believe it’s Ramin Karimloo
Ramin is the best Phantom for me because he has one of the best voice’s ever but also he is such an amazing actor. Every second of dialogue and non-dialogue is executed perfectly.

Ramin says when he was interviewed that playing the phantom was hard on his body. I think all the phantoms did an exceptional job. I wish I saw the production in england.
He's good .. but he's no Colm Wilkinson..
Yes I agree with you. Ramin and Sierra really is best Phantom starring row.
Marina Prior is the best Maria
Sierras beauty is stellar and the magic between her and ramin is out of this world
In sleep he sang to me, in dreams he came. That voice which calls to me...and speaks my name...
And do I dream again? For now I find.. the phantom of the opera is here, inside my mind
Don't just type... Sing! Sing for me!!

Near perfection i would say
Love Ramin and Sierra together as Phantom and Christine. I am so happy that I have the soundtracks to both Phantom and Love Never Dies with them singing the leads. Truly a beautiful combination. 💜💜💜
I love Love Never Dies. A superb song!
I went to see the opening of Love Never Dies in London. Phantom is a million times better. I was disappointed with Love Never Dies.
@@markrobertdevison1227 personally, I don't like the story from LND, but some songs are still very good

this singer is the most powerful phantom I've ever heard I like him
you should hear norm lewis. not to take anything from this phantom, but norm lewis is the most powerful phantom i've heard. probably because he does it in baritone instead of tenor.
Listen to Davis Gains as the Phantom; he is simply awesome!
Ramin kramlo is the best.
He is the best
My wife and I went to see Phantom on Saturday at Her Majesty’s Theatre in Londons West End. To say we were blown away is an understatement. Magnificent and emotional
I saw the Phantom of the Opera in mexico city was wonderful love it❤❤❤
We went in May and was a bit sad to see they change the name to His Majestys Theatre
а я видела этот спектакль в Москве, и была потрясён, одно из сильнейших театральных впечатлений!
Ramin and Sierra were absolutely amazing 👏 👏🎶🎵❤️❤️🎉🎉
I saw it at her Majesty's theatre in 1995.

It’s leaving Broadway very soon
I definitely think this version for the 25th anniversary is my favorite the 2 leads have amazing chemistry and you could tell that Christine is mesmerizing by the phantom in music of the night
Ramin and Sierra have a chemistry unmatched by any other Phantom pairing
Ramin and Sierra are my second favorite but my all time favorite is Michael crawford and Sara Brightman
The power of these singers is phenomenal, best version of Phantom I've ever heard.
This is one of the first musicals I saw on my 18th Birthday and it will always be my favourite. Watching this 31 years later has given me goosebumps. Amazing!!!!

Towards the end of the title song, I was blown away by the music and of course Christine’s vocals, WHAT PIPES THE ACTRESS HAS!
What a performace. Absolutely astounding. Perfection.
Just saw it in Monte Carlo in december 2023. With Ramin amazing in live , his voice is the same since then. Such powerful and magistral acting. A real discover for me. Now " he will sing song in my head" forever

Now I watched a lot of different phantoms on youtube, and some of them don't impress me at all (even classical ones - Michael Crawford and Colm Wilkinson. Yes, I believe they can survive that) some are so good that it's not possible to pick the best (John Owen-Jones, Norm Lewis, Ramin of cause), but no one is performing the duet with his Christine connecting so perfectly and has so strong chemistry as Ramin with Sierra. Maybe others weren't so lucky to have good quality video records with their own best partners?
We're considering going next year since it's the last Broadway production but your experience gives me pause. I'd be taking the entire family and it isn't cheap so I'm asking will it be worth it? I've seen it once in Seattle but this would be the 1st for our kids and I'm hoping it lives up to their expectations.
@@TheSkyline965 idk if it's too late for you or not, but I saw this production three times over the course of ten years and it was a joy every single time. Completely worth your time and money. Watch it before it closes!
When I' was sixteen years old, I read the book Phantom of the opera and fall in Love with it for all my life.
В каждом человеке живёт Божественная Любовь! Эта опера раскрывает у нас прекрасные чувства! Равнодушных мало!
This is bringing tears to my eyes. Beautiful memories seeing this several times in Atlanta at the Fox theater. 😢
音楽の授業で見せてもらったのですが、とても女性の声がキレイで、怪人役の方の声も素敵でTH-camに探しに来ちゃいました！✨
ありがとうございます😊
画像は悪いけど初代のマイケルクロフォード（怪人)&サラ・ブライトマン(クリスティーヌ)のバージョンも素晴らしいてすよ！
love love love love love Ramin's voice
No love=no life, useless, useless, useless.... Nothing.... 😢🤣
that guitar riffs towards the end of "the phantom of the opera" is the coolest thing ive ever heard! ughh so good.
Exquisite singing in this powerful stage production . Banderas is sublime in the role . I remember watching entranced at Broadway in 2012 .
I saw it in Toronto years ago. It was amazing, but the cast was nothing like this. So perfect!
How can such creation be ever forgotten. Show me such today🥲
Wow what a wonderful treat to have this come out now.. Tomorrow is my birthday and this production with Sierra and Ramin are my absolute favorite! My biggest wish though, is that it be shown in its entirety.
I'll think about this while blowing out my candles ❤️
Thank you so much!!!
Happy Birthday for tomorrow - we’re so glad you enjoyed this!
@@TheShowsMustGoOn Thank you so much!
Happy Birthday
@@caitlinbick1717 Thank you so much ❤️
Happy Birthday!
Such connection , incredible , i have seen a few of these but this is THE BEST i have seen .. heart touching , amazing singing and acting .
オペラ座の怪人、1990年のミニシリーズと2004年の映画の歌唱シーンしか観たことなくて、しかも英語全然わかんないからこのミュージカルの動画観ても何言ってるか全く理解できないけど大好き！
ほんとにファントムかっこいい…
お姫様抱っこしてほしい…😇
いつか生で観たいなあ…
Now, Realising my husband and father were Narcissic ,this Means so much more to me!. Than when I saw it at a young age. The feelings that I get when listening are very different.!!! I have always loved and still love this music , now at the age of 79 I have the chance to sing this in my choir .Love It!! Thanks A.L.W.
I looooove classical! The Phantom of the Opera added life back into the Opera 🎭🫶🏼✨🌟🎤🎶
The music and singing reach my soul like some hand invisibly touches my heart. So appreciated.
Best compilation! Sierra and Ramin, especially are magnificent
I consider them the modern heirs to Sarah Brightman and Michael Crawford..............
These two are wonderful. But for me, Gerard and Emmy, especially are magnificent.
💕💕💕
I loved this presentation. It's my favorite of all. Better than the original broadway production and cast.
Brilliant performance. The best version of the Phantom of the Opera.
I love Phantom of the Opera, but Music of the Night is my absolute favorite. 😍
I just love it and always will do fantastic going deep to my heart
Breathtaking performance that always make me tearful with joy.
The £180 I paid to see this was worth every penny, and since I didn't get enough of it, went and saw the live broadcast at the cinema the following evening! I was obsessed and still am. This performance made me calm down and forgive the casting of Gerard Butler in the movie. In fact, I smile whenever I watch the movie knowing that Ramin's version is immortalised and within reach
Gerard Butler is awesome as the phantom. His phantom is more realistic, more human and has such an emotion, a passion, a seductive mystic the other phantoms on Broadway just don't have or ever will. Ramin is great, well trained like other opera singers, but no matter how well they sing, personally I don't want a theater actor for the movie. It's too dramatic. Broadway isn't the same as film.
The story is so sad , yet is so beautiful....love....
Its magnificent!!!!!! Our favorite! , rite?🙌👏👏👏👏🌹💓
What music, what voices, what acting! I am speechless.
I haven't listened to this soundtrack in years. I got chills. Thank you for posting.
In sleep he sang to me,
In dreams he came…
that voice which calls to me
and speaks my name…
And do I dream again?
For now I find
the Phantom of the Opera is there -
Inside my mind…
Sing once again with me
our strange duet…
My power over you
grows stronger yet…
And though you turn from me,
to glance behind,
The Phantom of the Opera is there -
Inside your mind…
Those who have seen your face
draw back in fear…
I am the mask you wear…
It’s me they hear…
Your/My spirit and your/my voice,
in one combined:
the Phantom of the Opera is there -
inside your/my mind…
He’s there
the Phantom of the Opera
Beware
the Phantom of the Opera
In all your fantasies,
you always knew
that man and mystery…
…were both in you…
And in this labrinth,
where night is blind,
the Phantom of the Opera is there/here -
inside your/my mind
Sing, my Angel of Music!
He’s there,
the Phantom of the Opera…
Sing! sing! sing for me!
we were fortunate to see the Original of the Phantom on Broadway breathtakin, mesmerizing, thank you for posting
Greetings from the Philippines A Spiritual & Artistic Country With People Young & Old Who Dabbles in Music, Enjoys Sharing with Everyone & is Full of Gifted Musicians. This Phantom of the Opera is the Most Beautiful Although Somewhat Eerie Romantic Story, Outstanding Vocal Performance, Scenic Drama & Best Acted Musicale, A Memorable Collection of Songs, Most Wonderful Symphony Orchestra - Worthy of All Movie & Theater Awards.
Such powerful, yet crystal-clear voices...
This will forever be my favorite broadway show in the history of broadway
Saw this cast on holiday in London at her Majesty's in September. Fantastic production, theater and cast...GO and SEE it/them before it closes!
It's closing in London too?
Just saw it in NY and it's closing soon here. I was consoling myself thinking it'd still be going over there, but I guess not 😢
My first exposure to this music was in 1991, when we played the OST of this musical in Concert Band class. I was in 8th grade, and I've loved it ever since.
Excellent both in lyric and in melody as well as in both sound and sense, this song has made The Phantom of the Opera everlastingly immortal! The non-human phantom here is more "humanistic" than the live human beings. Please keep on singing this classic! Thanks for sharing! Peter Chen @ Taiwan
Spot on!
They are perfect to each other. Whatta perfect tandem for these perfect renditions of the songs!!! Loveit!!!
So beautiful music and perfect performance. Bravo!
All my favorite songs, thank you so much! Love Sierra and Ramin, they're the best.
Phantom is one of my favorites along with Cats, Les Mis, Evita, and others.
Álomszép opera,előadás!! köszönöm szépen,a gyönyörű,videót!
こんな素晴らしい男性に導かれたらついて行かないわけが無いんよ、、、、
I love this play. I can't enough of it. Ha. The music is so good and tells a great story. I read the book and saw it live performance when it was in Sacramento. I wish I could see the English production.
I read the book saw the live production in Sacramento and own the video. Can't get enough of this play.
My wife took me to this Phantom in san francisco. I had never experienced anything like this.Never have I ever enjoyed anything as much as this. The music is Top Shelf as well as all the performances. I watched these videos and it took me back to the stage. I will never forget what I experienced seeing this in the theatre. I so agree with you
Hi. I love Phantom too! I hope you don’t mind…it’s a “musical”. A play is all dialogue, no singing. 😊
Saw it on Broadway , center isle. It was amazing. Ate at The Rainbow Room first. When the doors open on Broadway, it’s so memorable
Really fantastic!
I watched Phanton of the Opera on Broadwajy for the first time in 1994. I loved it, so that I watched it again in Madrid-Spain some years ago.
I love that part in “Past The Point Of No Return” where Christine lifts the hood off of The Phantom! It’s almost like she’s playing Peekaboo with The Phantom there!
As much as I appreciate Michael Crawford as the original Phantom Ramin Karimloo has the perfect voice for how I see the character of The Phantom
I absolutely LOVED Phanton of the Opera. Ed and I saw it at Grady Gammage. I dressed up in an emerald green long gown and felt like a princess!!👸
Unforgettable❤I saw it three Times in london
Woooooooooo!!!! Sing!!!! She’s divine!! This is sensational.
To anybody who's reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the darks thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind right now. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life. Have a nice day
Thanks
Thanks. So appropiate
Pray the God to help you and him. When he dies you will love him, his passion and understsnd that you were really loved deeply, at least once, yet you were not , could not return lthis love . Oh my dear it is too late now.
Timing in my GOD. HE planned anything and do anything good to the ones who love HIM.... Understand?!?! ❤
Master of the masters, King of the kings, then, Song of the songs, again..... Believe? Hope? Love? ❤❤❤The Savior died for you and me.... We reborned. ❤
I'm going to see it for the last time before it goes off Broadway 😢, in April, I'm glad we can go before it ends.
Foi um grande presente para meus 77 anos, encontrado parte de belíssima opera! Gratidão!
I have always had an affinity for Phantom of the Opera because it open at Her Majesty Theater in London on 10/09/1986 which was the day I turned 19 years of age.
Me too. Did you read the book, that begins at the day poor Eric was born? I LOOOOVE that book. It tells his whole story. I've never really understood why he's considered evil. She should have shown him that he is lovable and should have given everything to really get to him. If she really loved him, she would have. And I find, after reading the book, there are some things that are endearing about Eric. Much more, he was even a particularly sensitive, attentive and special person. He just despairs of the world. The people who saw in him only the disfigured monster. All he searched for was love, as every human being does, that never had the love of the own mother, but probably failed because of not being able to feel love for himself. This is so tragic and somehow extremely Of course there is a lot more symbolism in it and we shouldn't just look at it from one and especially not only from the obvious point of view. Phantom of the opera, for me, is the most amazing musical...and the book is something you should read, if you feel sympathy and compassion for Eric already after watching Phantom of the Opera.
It is somehow very unfair that a person should be damned who never learned to love himself because his own mother was so incapable. Because the inability actually lies with the mother and also the crippling, how I would call it. Not with the child.
How unfair is it then please, indeed downright gruesome, that a person should be damned because, precisely because his own mother never showed him the love for him .. her child, in the end he may not be saved or run to his ruin, or perhaps damned maybe even in the eyes of a higher power precisely because he never learned to love himself. Well, I definitely can't imagine that, because that would be so simple, so insignificant and meaningless. Such a being should experience grace and mercy through true love. Real, true love .. God .. CAN ONLY BE THAT WAY!!!
