The lad in the white shirt at the start spent 10+ years performing this song during Les Mis in Broadway. I'd hope you would know his nationality? Stage Heroes..
Thank god for TH-cam. This is the power and brilliance of TH-cam. How many millions of people around the world were able to experience this performance? I'm a premium member and would happily pay double the amount I pay.
Javert...or people with attitudes like Javert. And I know plenty of people like that. Too many "Judging Javerts" in the world. We need more forgiving Bishops with silver candlesticks.
Probably in his most secret dreams too, taking it to another Victor Hugo adaptation, think of Frollo and Esmeralda, he though about just killing her, but deep inside he actually desired her.
I would be over the moon to watch this production on stage again. If they ended up pulling this kind of mind-blowing move while I was there I would probably cry and then faint and then cry some more, lol. But to be serious it would legitimately be one of my favorite lifetime memories, for sure.
This can only be likened to the Olympics for musical theatre. Getting to walk with your countries flag in such a prestigious setting and then come put with this history making performance.
It shows just how truly international Les Miserables is. On the face of it it's the story of 19th century French protestors but it speaks to ALL people who are being downtrodden and have no rights.
Proletarians of the world unite and join the peaceful but challenging struggle. You have nothing to lose but your shackles! G'day mate from Australia 🇦🇺 .
It is only about 20 or so countries that have translated versions though. I'd argue that this song actually represents a very Western view of revolution. Which makes sense, it is a French song. I'd say that it's not as translatable to other non-Western cultures as it may seem.

To song is to short to have gotten through all 17 of them, so they repeated the whole song and edited a few lines. Hungary and Ireland sang the same line.

I doubt there was any evil intent behind the performance. I'm pretty sure that a Nigerian Valjean would have been perfectly welcome. As for the gender thing, Valjean IS male in the play. You could change the script, like performing Hamlet with all-female roles, but then you would have a new piece of art, not the original. I agree that the message in the song is universal -a call for people to overcome persecution and adversity.
As great as this is, we recently saw this performed by the students at James Hargest College in Invercargill NZ, and their performance was fabulous. Thanks for a great night out.
Jeff Leyton (Ireland) blows most of these guys out of the water when he comes in 3:45 gives me chills everytime!! Fantastic stuff even all these years later
Let the geeks sing and then we'll give them douchebag awards for all of you. Do you hear yourselves singing douchebags. Listen to the sounds of retards on utube as they brag about being slick but they can't touch this nigga.
I love how fantastically unifying this is. If you consider the tensions that have existed between some these countries and what some have done to others in only the last hundred years, it is such a massive accomplishment that they all stand here together, as one.
There are people alive today who remember when many of these countries fought in the most deadly war in human history against each other. It's amazing how far we've come in a human lifetime.

@@richardbenitez1282 it did take him around 17 years to complete the novel, however frim those 17 years, he onlyvspent about 5 years working on it (from 1845 to 1848 then from 1860 until completion and publication in 1862)
It's nearly midnight which sounds like a great time for me to fall in love with some Irish dude from a video that's nearly twenty years old that he's only featured in for three seconds.
Except he is Scottish. He just happened to appear in a production in Ireland. Just like Robert Marien appeared in a production in France even though he is Canadian.
Ireland didn't come to play! He was snatching all them powdered wigs! I'd love to hear a version of just him! Honorary Mentions: Austria, Norway, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Japan
Translating this to fit with an East Asian language while maintaining the meter has to be hard enough. Singing it has to be even harder. Mad props to them!
Corinne Dolan Personally, I think a decent amount of credit should go toward the fact that his solo was not only at the key change, but also during a big bit in the crescendo. However, that being said, it can't be denied that Mr. Leyton fucking NAILED IT!
Denmark is exactly how I imagine Valjean I kinda wished that France had a bigger part in this rendition bc the story took place in the country but the concert just seemed absolutely breathtaking I loved hearing Lea through the chorus of Valjeans, what a strong voice! It must have been such a memorable night for all the performers, musicians, and audience members involved
It’s more the fact that all 17 valjeans shared 3 mics whereas quast and Lea had their own that’s why their voice carries through the union, however I agree., I love this song
Kurt Ravn who was the Danish was a magnificent Jean Valjean, really amazing. Stig Rossen is another Danish actor who has been Jean Veljean, however on West End. There is a beautiful video online of them singing together. Really great Valjeans both of them.

Japanese Valjean is the Iron Chef chairman. Also, I love the look on his face when he finishes his line. It's like "Hmm, did I forget to unlock the back door when I left the house?"
My Father just passed away. Les Miserables was his favourite musical and we saw it twice together. Ironically, he moved to France. I'm listening to this now in his memory.
Roger You have the exact similar mentality the Japanese had during the 20th century. Have pride in yourself. Not from being belonging to group of countries that are half a way across the globe
HeyItsBeppa Well, the musician who sang for Germany is from Poland so he lacks the proper Pan-German anger in his voice, unlike the Austrian Reinhard Brussmann (damn, even his name shows pure German beauty) who sings in Furor Teutonicus.
That facial expression he makes is very much in the character of his "Chairman Kaga" persona. I almost expect him to shout out today's mystery ingredient afterwards.
I can only imagine how powerful this must have been to experience in person rather than through an old video. Because even through this video, you can hear just how powerful everyone's voices are together so I can only imagine hearing how booming it must have felt to witness this in person.
It is a theme song for today against those who trample without conscious on people everywhere. A rallying cry for freedom for all. A gorgeous song and inspiring and what incredible voices all together. Music can be such a wonderful thing to inspire us all.
*Philip Quast* (1957-), Dream Cast He is a well-established Australian theatre actor, with a dozen or so on-screen roles, most of which were on TV. He first rose to fame at the age of 30 when he played Javert in the original Australian Les Mis. It was that initial performance that got him into the Dream Cast in 1995. *Phil Cavill* (?), UK Well, it is hard to find anything about him, but from what I can tell he’s doing fine. I found a video of him singing Bring Me Home with other singers, including Jeff Leyton that was recorded in 2020. *Robert Marien* (1955-), France He is actually Canadian, but played in the original French-Canadian show of the play and then was invited to reprise his role in Paris as well. Since 1999, he has been mostly playing a part in The Hunchback of Notre-Dame on world tours. The last of which started during the outbreak of the virus. *Jerzy Leszke* (1958-), Germany He’s a very successful Polish theatre actor, in Poland, Austria and Germany alike, but had performances in other European countries as well. He got the role in the first German Les Mis production in 1995. In the 2010s he was continuously playing a part in Dance of the Vampires. However, he is not doing so well nowadays, since in 2020 he was convicted and jailed for rape. *Takeshi Kaga* (1950-), Japan Another well-established theatre actor, but he is also known for his portrayal of the Iron Chef and his roles in the Death Note movie series. *Gyula Vikidál* (1948-), Hungary He’s from my home country, a very successful rock singer who rose to fame in the ‘70s during the Communist era as member of the P. Mobil. He then played in numerous other bands and from the late ‘80s started his stage works in rock musicals, such as István, a király. In recent years, though his iconic position isn’t shaken, he has mostly lost his singing voice, which he gave to rock and roll. *Tommy Körberg* (1948-), Sweden He’s another mainly singer. He competed in the Eurovision Song Contests of 1969 and 1988. Körberg also played a famous role in the Swedish adaptation of Chess as well as sang in the Swedish dub of Beauty and the Beast. More recently, he sang the song “For Every Step” with the metalcore band Dead by April. That’s actually quite good. *Krzysztof Stasierowski* (1950-), Poland Another singer that is hard to find, but he has been playing roles on many Polish TV shows, most recently in 2020. *Henk Poort* (1956-), The Netherlands Mainly an opera singer, interestingly enough he also dubbed for the Beauty and the Beast. You can find many clips of him singin on Dutch events. Most recently he gained attention when sang Nightwish’s The Phantom of the Opera with their singer in 2019. Once again, it is quite good a song with his singing skills and I recommend checking it out. *Michael Burgess* (1945 - 2015), Canada Another Canadian, but he was involved in the English versions. He was frequently associated with the Canadian anthem as he sang it numerous times over the years. He unfortunately died at the age of 70. ☹ *Reinhard Brussmann* (1957-), Austria He’s not the first on the list who first rose to fame by playing in the Les Miserables. He got the part in 1989, the following year he was chosen as the actor of the year in Austria. The most recent work of his I could find was in 2018, in the musical The Pope. *Rob Guest* (1950-2008), Australia Another unfortunate loss on the list as he died at the age of 58. Ironically, he and Burgess are my favourites in this song. ☹ He was born in England and grew up in Canada and New-Zealand, but settled down in Australia. He was known for his roles in the Phantom of the Opera in which he even set a record of 2.289 performances over the scope of seven years. In his later years that came to soon, he continued to perform in many theatre roles and had the good fortune of establishing himself as a regular gala host of televised shows. After his death a fund was established in his honour to help upcoming musical performers. *Øystein Wiik* (1956-), Norway He was working as a theatre actor from the age of 24, but gained fame in 1988 as Jean Valjean. So much so that in the following years he reprised to role in both Vienna and London. After 2000 he mostly wrote for musicals and then in the past decade has been writing novels. *Jan Ježek* (?), Czech Republic He is also difficult to track down, but he is doing fine and from what I could tell is regarded as one of the most well-known theatre actors in the country. *Kurt Ravn* (1947-), Denmark In 1995, he was already the eldest of the 17, but he’s still doing fine thankfully. He gained fame in the late ‘70s as an actor, appearing in the Danish TV series Matador. He’s been having success as an actor ever since. *Jeff Leyton* (?), Ireland Another theatre actor and singer. He played on the West End many times and reprised his role as Valjean. He is quite active on social media (Instagram and Twitter) and also has a TH-cam channel, which I really recommend checking out. There he even has a full recording of Do You Hear the People Sing and a sing-off with Russel Crowe, both from 2020. *Egill Ólafsson* (1953-), Iceland He is fairly successful in Iceland both on the stage and on screen. For the past few years, he seems to be have taken a break, but he did have a role on TV in 2021. He is also active on his Facebook page. *Craig Schulman* (?), USA He has been playing in various theatre roles from the ‘80s throughout today, but other then that is hard to find. You can find an interview with him from 2018, but even that is not much. As of May, 2021.

Ok to be honest, I like Ireland’s the way best because it just sounds so much more powerful and expressive. But I’m so impressed by how synchronized everything is.

"Here's 800 years of struggle !"
The first line was also sung by an Irishman too, the original and still best Valjean, Colm Wilkinson from Dublin.

As for the gender thing, Valjean IS male in the play. You could change the script, like performing Hamlet with all-female roles, but then you would have a new piece of art, not the original.
I agree that the message in the song is universal -a call for people to overcome persecution and adversity.
just accept this is beautiful
+Tore Bolhoej lol
+Tore Bolhoej but right
In a world of more and more dictators, we could all do to remember this tune.
Exactly 💯 right now in 2025
There is always a Life to come for today❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
At least the people got rid of one dictatorship on 5/11/2024
Now we just need 17 Javerts to sing "AND I'M JAVERT!"
It will be a big pleasure to sing internationaly but not worth to be Javert dude!!
+Legatus Marcus Your the type of person who makes me love the interner
I envy all those people who were lucky to see this live.
me too, like you must've been really lucky if you got to see this live
@@grimrhea5459 how about that chubby guy in the front row
I did
As great as this is, we recently saw this performed by the students at James Hargest College in Invercargill NZ, and their performance was fabulous. Thanks for a great night out.
Someone get Javert! Look at all the Valjeans he can catch
"Gotta catch' em all!" - said Javert xD
The Japanese Valjean was also Javert
DancingFeather Fun fact: Egill Ólafsson, the original Icelandic Jean Valjean, portrayed Javert in a new version in 2012!
Javert's dead.
A huge of waves of jean valjean is coming!!!
This is what peace among nations look like.
Jesus. That explosive hit of "One Day More". I would have killed to be in that theater just for that.
Then you'd have Javert after you.
Everyone loves Ireland's guy. I say Austria's was damn good.
yeah he was. But he sings like he's planning an attack on Poland.
I like the polish guy too.
Swedish Valjean is underrated.
And the Czech one.
@@BelleroseQC Go look at some of his stuff from Chess....Anthem and his ending of Endgame are on point.
Jeff Leyton (Ireland) blows most of these guys out of the water when he comes in 3:45 gives me chills everytime!! Fantastic stuff even all these years later
Absolutely same, man came out SWINGING and I love it every time haha
if anyone can sing a revolutionary song its the irish
@@theunloadedrpg1376 well most of them
Let the geeks sing and then we'll give them douchebag awards for all of you. Do you hear yourselves singing douchebags. Listen to the sounds of retards on utube as they brag about being slick but they can't touch this nigga.
I'd say his spontaneous, epic, loud, inspiring take is on par with Colms soft spoken, quiet, holy, and downright gentle take
This feels more relevant than ever.
Fucking Ireland!! That was insane! I just keep looping the epicness of his voice over and over wishing I could just hear him sing the full thing
I want to hear him sing who am I and bring him home
Noor Semrani there actually is a video online of him singing Who Am I, but it's awesome to hear his intense voice in this song
Also, he sings the last part of the intro in the 10th anniversary, the "how long oh lord before you let me die"
I've seen his "bring him home" on youtube, search it
Ikr he killed it 👍
I love how fantastically unifying this is. If you consider the tensions that have existed between some these countries and what some have done to others in only the last hundred years, it is such a massive accomplishment that they all stand here together, as one.
Stand With Might That’s the power of Les Miserables in any form In brings people together
People are the same in every country, only our governments divide us.
We need the World State my friend. Peace for humankind.
There are people alive today who remember when many of these countries fought in the most deadly war in human history against each other. It's amazing how far we've come in a human lifetime.
@@TheEnoses1 exactly
The Icelandic part is beautiful. Roughly translates to “this is a song of worship the likes of which was never sung in a church”
I get:
Þannig er söngur þeirra sem að
þrældóm aldrei vilja meir
which translates to:
So is the song of those who
Slavery never wants more
The lyrics to the song - in English - are: It is a music if a people who will not be slaves again.
Yes, and that’s more or less what the Icelandic words say, too...
He is called deception master, so he was successful 174 times with his bullshit :D
Oh my god I'm gonna sob
Victor Hugo this is the fruits of your labor thank you for such a powerful and unforgettable book you have written for the world. Your work will go on forever and ever. Rest In Paradise Victor Hugo!
I read one comment that Hugo spent 17 years writing novel.
Les Misérables is one of the greatest stories in the world. I think if everyone stopped to read it we could be much happier as a species.
@@richardbenitez1282 it did take him around 17 years to complete the novel, however frim those 17 years, he onlyvspent about 5 years working on it (from 1845 to 1848 then from 1860 until completion and publication in 1862)
Javerts nightmare right here.
It's his wet dream. All those Valjeans in one place with very few exits and hundreds of witnesses.
Am I here Javert???
...or am I over here??
Does javert have his own group of javerts too?
"AND IM JAVERT!"
"No, IM JAVERT!"
"IM JAVERT!"
*17 Javerts begin dogpiling on eachother and pulling at eachother's hair*
More like the real reason why Javert killed himself
It's nearly midnight which sounds like a great time for me to fall in love with some Irish dude from a video that's nearly twenty years old that he's only featured in for three seconds.
I think he's also in the Prologue singing 'How long, oh Lord, before you let me die?'
😂😂😂😂
th-cam.com/video/P1Q9fcFdQSY/w-d-xo.html
Except he is Scottish. He just happened to appear in a production in Ireland. Just like Robert Marien appeared in a production in France even though he is Canadian.
@@hectorsmommy1717 Also, Rob Guest from the Australian production, was a New Zealander.
I wish one day Hong Kong could take part in this beautiful harmony too. #ifuknow #uknow
eventually, the whole world will hear us sing

All the people of the world need to start singing before its to late to be heard.....
Ireland didn't come to play! He was snatching all them powdered wigs! I'd love to hear a version of just him!
Honorary Mentions: Austria, Norway, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Japan
Iceland also!!
All the English parts sound puny compared to the others. Except for Ireland's brilliant performance of course.
@Cherlock McFly Same thing with Poland. You can hear how hear how he has to rush to fit it all
Translating this to fit with an East Asian language while maintaining the meter has to be hard enough. Singing it has to be even harder. Mad props to them!
@Jacob Feagin th-cam.com/video/P1Q9fcFdQSY/w-d-xo.html, Enjoy
Good luck finding the real one, Javert.
"Good luck finding the real one, Javert."
Javert: Err, the only one in white without a tux?
I am Spartacus!
I am Spartacus!
I am Spartacus!
They’re all real what are you talking about?
LOL
I love the two guys that turn to look at Ireland like "oh fuck he's gettin it"
Corinne Dolan Personally, I think a decent amount of credit should go toward the fact that his solo was not only at the key change, but also during a big bit in the crescendo. However, that being said, it can't be denied that Mr. Leyton fucking NAILED IT!
i thought the same thing! his energy + voice is very enjolras
Corinne Dolan っっっっっ
This seems like a song many need to reacquaint themselves with in these times.
Yes it' wonderfull. I listen to it every day. So encouraging❤
Denmark is exactly how I imagine Valjean
I kinda wished that France had a bigger part in this rendition bc the story took place in the country
but the concert just seemed absolutely breathtaking
I loved hearing Lea through the chorus of Valjeans, what a strong voice!
It must have been such a memorable night for all the performers, musicians, and audience members involved
It’s more the fact that all 17 valjeans shared 3 mics whereas quast and Lea had their own that’s why their voice carries through the union, however I agree., I love this song
I thought France would get a slightly bigger share as well, not gonna lie, but now I'm curious to watch the show!
Yes, he is most famous for being an actor. I today I learnt he also was Jean Valjean. Cool.
Kurt Ravn who was the Danish was a magnificent Jean Valjean, really amazing. Stig Rossen is another Danish actor who has been Jean Veljean, however on West End. There is a beautiful video online of them singing together. Really great Valjeans both of them.
Robert Marien who performed in French is actually Canadian - and has performed the role in New York, London and Paris, in both English and French.
Les Miserables is brilliant in every language.
Even the way Takeshi Kaga closes his mouth is epic.
You should see him on Iron Chef.
Saw this in Boston. The first road tour. Still send chills up my spine.
Damn Ireland. That was solid
If only there was a Scottish Valijean
Actually, Jeff Leyton IS Scottish!
Lexi Ober Then why is he representing Ireland?
I am guessing because he is best known for a production that showed in Ireland, I suppose.
Lexi Ober Colm Wilkinson is Irish

Japanese Valjean is the Iron Chef chairman.
Also, I love the look on his face when he finishes his line. It's like "Hmm, did I forget to unlock the back door when I left the house?"
I thought the Japanese Valjean was quite impressive and manly. He really was a highlight....memorable!
anyone listening in 2024?
My Father just passed away. Les Miserables was his favourite musical and we saw it twice together. Ironically, he moved to France. I'm listening to this now in his memory.

Yes, lm listening and sharing. Share this. Share this. Share this.

Let's just acknowledge Ireland once more.
And that one was with conviction !!!
何回も見てる。めちゃくちゃ感動する！！
鹿賀さん、アジアで一人だけ出てるよね。
正にアジア人の誇り❗️
It’s a testament to how amazing Phillip Quast was that with 17 Valjeans he could still be fully heard
wonderful ♥️♥️♥️ and "Team Javert"♥️
18 Valjeans if you count Colm! Yes, how powerful must PQ’s voice be to be able to hear every word clearly over all them Valjeans!!!
Absolutely, and with such clarity 🙇

The Irish guy about halfway through was especially brilliant - gave me the chills!
It is incredible how good this song sounds in any language. Also, the Japanese got a really handsome Jean Valjean ;)
He was on The Iron Chef.
frickin' France pushed the UK Valjean like "MOVE! this is about MY history."
lollllllllllllllllllllll
Except that Robert Marien is Canadian.
Hector's Mommy Quebecois, that's pretty much the same.
Not only is it a different country, it is a different continent. Nope, not the same.
Hector's Mommy ffs Quebec was settled by the French so up until its joining of Canada, its the same history
Austria's was perfect! His voice!!!!
HeyItsBeppa Right? Totally blown away by him. :D
:)
HeyItsBeppa Well, the musician who sang for Germany is from Poland so he lacks the proper Pan-German anger in his voice, unlike the Austrian Reinhard Brussmann (damn, even his name shows pure German beauty) who sings in Furor Teutonicus.
Zajin13 You said german is hated by austrian？
永井道彦 What? I am sorry to ask but are you "not that good in english" or was my previous comment not understandable? :o
The Japanese singer was the host of Iron Chef
i'd love to see the Japanese version with him in it
Was just about to post this. xD
They literally don't look like the same person. Must be mistaken for the host of the cooking show.
He is an accomplished actor as well.
That facial expression he makes is very much in the character of his "Chairman Kaga" persona. I almost expect him to shout out today's mystery ingredient afterwards.
I can only imagine how powerful this must have been to experience in person rather than through an old video. Because even through this video, you can hear just how powerful everyone's voices are together so I can only imagine hearing how booming it must have felt to witness this in person.
それぞれの国の方の、美しく力強い歌声が、心からの感動を与えてくれています。大変素晴らしいです。

@user - vc6jo1th6k,1year ago I can't read write ,Hello Catherine how are you Doing ,
The Austrian (not Australian) guy shows REAL passion. HE is the man I want on my side to rally the troops and get them all fired up!
It is a theme song for today against those who trample without conscious on people everywhere. A rallying cry for freedom for all. A gorgeous song and inspiring and what incredible voices all together. Music can be such a wonderful thing to inspire us all.
You do realize that the scene ends with all the revolutionaries being mowed down and dying pointlessly, right?
I get so emotional hearing this music. And yes, an anthem for now!
These words have new meaning today. Slava 🇺🇦!
@@naphackDT Well yes, the title of it is basically "The Miserable". Doesn't mean we can't still feel a kinship to the idea.
…. and even more true now a year later when we witness the plight of Ukraine .
I can't believe I just found this video. I saw this live three times in Michigan about 30 years ago and have watched tons of videos on it.
*Philip Quast* (1957-), Dream Cast
He is a well-established Australian theatre actor, with a dozen or so on-screen roles, most of which were on TV. He first rose to fame at the age of 30 when he played Javert in the original Australian Les Mis. It was that initial performance that got him into the Dream Cast in 1995.
*Phil Cavill* (?), UK
Well, it is hard to find anything about him, but from what I can tell he’s doing fine. I found a video of him singing Bring Me Home with other singers, including Jeff Leyton that was recorded in 2020.
*Robert Marien* (1955-), France
He is actually Canadian, but played in the original French-Canadian show of the play and then was invited to reprise his role in Paris as well. Since 1999, he has been mostly playing a part in The Hunchback of Notre-Dame on world tours. The last of which started during the outbreak of the virus.
*Jerzy Leszke* (1958-), Germany
He’s a very successful Polish theatre actor, in Poland, Austria and Germany alike, but had performances in other European countries as well. He got the role in the first German Les Mis production in 1995. In the 2010s he was continuously playing a part in Dance of the Vampires. However, he is not doing so well nowadays, since in 2020 he was convicted and jailed for rape.
*Takeshi Kaga* (1950-), Japan
Another well-established theatre actor, but he is also known for his portrayal of the Iron Chef and his roles in the Death Note movie series.
*Gyula Vikidál* (1948-), Hungary
He’s from my home country, a very successful rock singer who rose to fame in the ‘70s during the Communist era as member of the P. Mobil. He then played in numerous other bands and from the late ‘80s started his stage works in rock musicals, such as István, a király. In recent years, though his iconic position isn’t shaken, he has mostly lost his singing voice, which he gave to rock and roll.
*Tommy Körberg* (1948-), Sweden
He’s another mainly singer. He competed in the Eurovision Song Contests of 1969 and 1988. Körberg also played a famous role in the Swedish adaptation of Chess as well as sang in the Swedish dub of Beauty and the Beast. More recently, he sang the song “For Every Step” with the metalcore band Dead by April. That’s actually quite good.
*Krzysztof Stasierowski* (1950-), Poland
Another singer that is hard to find, but he has been playing roles on many Polish TV shows, most recently in 2020.
*Henk Poort* (1956-), The Netherlands
Mainly an opera singer, interestingly enough he also dubbed for the Beauty and the Beast. You can find many clips of him singin on Dutch events. Most recently he gained attention when sang Nightwish’s The Phantom of the Opera with their singer in 2019. Once again, it is quite good a song with his singing skills and I recommend checking it out.
*Michael Burgess* (1945 - 2015), Canada
Another Canadian, but he was involved in the English versions. He was frequently associated with the Canadian anthem as he sang it numerous times over the years. He unfortunately died at the age of 70. ☹
*Reinhard Brussmann* (1957-), Austria
He’s not the first on the list who first rose to fame by playing in the Les Miserables. He got the part in 1989, the following year he was chosen as the actor of the year in Austria. The most recent work of his I could find was in 2018, in the musical The Pope.
*Rob Guest* (1950-2008), Australia
Another unfortunate loss on the list as he died at the age of 58. Ironically, he and Burgess are my favourites in this song. ☹ He was born in England and grew up in Canada and New-Zealand, but settled down in Australia. He was known for his roles in the Phantom of the Opera in which he even set a record of 2.289 performances over the scope of seven years. In his later years that came to soon, he continued to perform in many theatre roles and had the good fortune of establishing himself as a regular gala host of televised shows. After his death a fund was established in his honour to help upcoming musical performers.
*Øystein Wiik* (1956-), Norway
He was working as a theatre actor from the age of 24, but gained fame in 1988 as Jean Valjean. So much so that in the following years he reprised to role in both Vienna and London. After 2000 he mostly wrote for musicals and then in the past decade has been writing novels.
*Jan Ježek* (?), Czech Republic
He is also difficult to track down, but he is doing fine and from what I could tell is regarded as one of the most well-known theatre actors in the country.
*Kurt Ravn* (1947-), Denmark
In 1995, he was already the eldest of the 17, but he’s still doing fine thankfully. He gained fame in the late ‘70s as an actor, appearing in the Danish TV series Matador. He’s been having success as an actor ever since.
*Jeff Leyton* (?), Ireland
Another theatre actor and singer. He played on the West End many times and reprised his role as Valjean. He is quite active on social media (Instagram and Twitter) and also has a TH-cam channel, which I really recommend checking out. There he even has a full recording of Do You Hear the People Sing and a sing-off with Russel Crowe, both from 2020.
*Egill Ólafsson* (1953-), Iceland
He is fairly successful in Iceland both on the stage and on screen. For the past few years, he seems to be have taken a break, but he did have a role on TV in 2021. He is also active on his Facebook page.
*Craig Schulman* (?), USA
He has been playing in various theatre roles from the ‘80s throughout today, but other then that is hard to find. You can find an interview with him from 2018, but even that is not much.
As of May, 2021.
wow, toll was du dir für Arbeit gemacht hast, mein absoluter Favorit ist Philip Quast ♥️ da kommt nix ran, aber von den 17 Valjean's sind auch meine beiden Favoriten: Guest und Burgess.... traurig und merkwürdig zugleich...

Ok to be honest, I like Ireland’s the way best because it just sounds so much more powerful and expressive. But I’m so impressed by how synchronized everything is. Considering that most of the people here doesn’t understand most of the languages and how many strangers from different countries worked together to create this amazing performance
It's a pity the orchestra starts to drown them out halfway through + the audio quality of 360p leaves a lot to be desired :(
The odd thing is that ‘Irelands’ part is sung by a Scot 😀
The Irish man was one of my favorite and I need to hear him song the entire song ahhh (along with Norway, Czech Republic and Denmark)
Bingo
Austria was also amazing.
It’s now on my channel.
3:05 him and the irish guy were the most imposing singers!
+ElAshtonio the austrian guy definitely was the most intimidating singer. thats how id picture Valjean, after all he is supposed to be a huge brute
