Steve Barton & Rebecca Luker: Phantom Of The Opera

[PrincessAries86]

Steve Barton is such an amazing singer. I love him as Raoul best though. I think his voice suits it best but he still sounds fantastic as the Phantom. Such a wonderful voice.

Not enough is said about Rebecca Luker! She was WONDERFUL in this role. Every note was pitch perfect. Thanks for posting this masterful performance by two perfect actors/singers.

Thank you for sharing this.  I had the good fortune to see/hear Steve Barton play the Phantom and it was so thrilling. His performance of Raul is perfection, as well. All I Ask of You, which he sang with Sarah Brightman, is one of the GREAT recordings of all time. He was so gifted and GIVING and I'm sorry he died so young. Thank you for sharing this with all who miss him and all who will discover him through videos like this.

I always wondered what Steve Barton would sound like as the Phantom... I never knew it actually had happened! He sounds amazing! Thank you for posting!

When were these two in phantom?

[rlee1976]

@1broadwaystar

They were the 2nd cast I believe, after Crawford and Brightman left - circa late 1989 into 1990 - when I went to see it, Barton had left and Gray had taken over, but Luker was still in it...

[TheIndyMaestro]

@rlee1976 Timothy Nolen was the one who replaced Michael and Steve came back as the phantom later!

[jimsed1964]

WOW! Steve & Rebecca were the very first Phantom & Christine that I saw. Thanks for sharing this! :-)
