I met Joseph Paur at an audition, such a lovely man. I was very surprised that they were having him audition though. I would have immediately said "you want to be in my little, not quite professional musical? Done and Done.
This song is probably my favorite from this film. I was seven years old when it came out apparently. My older sister would play this and the others from the movie on our piano as she would sing.... so beautifully. I miss those days. And life is not fair, but the greatest tragedy is succumbing to that bitterness. And now I know this well also. But life also gives us MANY second chances: a chance to break the 'curse'. ;) Thanks. This song will always remain with me. :)
I have the original movie from when it first came out. My children and I still love it to this day. God Bless the Paur family for teaching a valuable lesson to many with this film.
This is my cousin. Joseph Paur. The movie was directed my his brother Leo. He is so amazing and has a ridiculously loud voice. I heard him sing and my grandma's funeral and I was as far away from him as possible and he wasn't using a mic but it sounded like he was right next to me.
You can buy the DVD and the music CD at familytv.com for much cheaper than Amazon. Buying from them also supports this great company that makes these great family movies.
I remember watching this as a child and being in AWE of the music, voices, and dresses... i just watched it again and although I still love it... the girl is NOT as good of an actor as I a remember and her voice is DEF not as good :)... but his voice is BEAUTIFUL!!!
One of my favorite movies I grew up on. Paur has such a beautiful voice, very operatic. Good messages throughout the entire movie as well. Grew up on it and feel nostalgic every time I watch it. Heard it compared to beauty and the beast and the phantom of the opera which is a decent thing to compare it to. I highly recommend it to anyone who has not seen it.
Paur starred in the musical film Rigoletto as the title character Ribaldi/Rigoletto. The film features Paur's classically trained voice in the songs The Curse, lyrics by Michael McLean and April Child, by Chance Thomas. Paur also played in The Testaments and had a brief appearance as an opera singer in The Man from Elysian Fields.
Paur toured with the cast of "1856" The Musical, which premiered in 2005.
I love this movie. I saw it once when I was a child, and it never left my mind or heart. I saw Joseph Paur in person once in Salt Lake City at the Capitol Theatre for the play "1856." A dear friend recommeded. "1856" was amazing and touched my heart so. I remember also a sweet little girl with glasses that played the role of Margaret. She was like an angel, and I gave her a little kiss on the cheek as I left. Unforgettable films! Thank you!!!
@tabitwin Joseph Paur is a Latter-day Saint singer and actor who has appeared in several films and musical productions. The majority of Paur's professional work has been related to Mormon cinema and theater as well as family-friendly films produced in Utah aimed at a wider audience
This used to be my "sick movie" aka everytime I was sick I would sit in the living room and watch this movie for hours on end. I watched it so many times I wore out 3 VHS tapes and my mom finally got me a DVD of it. lol I am 17 and still 100% in love with this movie. <3
I Love this movie it is awesome movie beautiful Joesph Paur singer as well Handsome actor I would love to see more of His movies or more of his songs if he sings any other songs in does he have cd or tapes of him.
Oh, no I think that was actually just the soundtrack... But you could try contacting the company that originally distributed the film. Feature Films for Families? (geez what a toungue twister...) I don't know if they can help, but maybe ask if they have a karaoke version?
I literally grew up watching this movie!!! I haven't seen it in forever but the songs still get stuck in my head, esp Let Me In from the very beginning of the movie. LOVE IT!!!
I remember one Christmas years ago when my family was sent a set of movies by mail. I think it was from a church. This was one of them, and even today, it is one of my favorites. ^^
Can anyone download the whole movie so some of us who haven't seen it can watch it. Someone downloaded the whole The Polar Express Movie. That's another one of my favorite movies.
I don't even know how or why, but for some reason, I recalled having watched this in my sixth-grade choir class on one of our occasional "movie days." At the time, I really enjoyed it, and I'm pleased that I could at least a few bits of the film on YouTube. It brings back good memories when you see something that you haven't seen in a long time.
@lori7777777777777777 Try your local music store that sells sheet music if you have one. Or go to the nearest town that has one and they can order it for you.
@narutoha99inuyashato The guy who taught the girl to sing that had the disfigured face was killed by a group of towns people who thought he had done something to one of their children and thought he was a monster because he was disfigured, but later he comes back under a different name alive. As though the curse was broken and his face was fixed.
I love this song. I think Joseph Paur has such an amazing voice. I saw this movie when I was like 3 and have been obsessed ever since and I am 12 now. This is the reason I started singing. my favorite musical of all time. And this is one of the best songs in the movie. Like 2 years ago My grandparents who own the movie took me to see the play Rigoletto but it was nothing like the movie. The movie is so much better. I LOVE RIGOLETTO.
He is famous, but he doesn't let that get to his head. That's the wonder about Joseph Paur. His voice is amazing, but shares it in more intimate settings. He's quite genuine and very personable. He actually came into my work (a sheet music store) and didn't even draw attention to himself. I only really recognized him because I'm a big fan.
It happened actually the day I posted my comment, so . . . October 23rd. It happened at Day Murray Music in Murray, Utah. He lives in the local neighborhood and comes in regularly I'm told, but I've only seen him once. Like I said, he makes no effort to announce himself wherever he goes.
I love this song and movie....as a young girl I would watch it...and then rewind it (oh, the days of vcr's), and then watch it again. This movie should have been much more popular.
I used to have this movie's soundtrack on cassette tape. Jeez, I wouldn't know how to transfer it to mp3's if I did know where it was now.. This is so great.
it's your basic "beauty and the beast" movie. young girl goes to work for a cold hearted man who is hated by the town. the towns people start losing their homes and they think it's him...but it's not, he is infact trying to help them secretly. he teaches her how to sing, she goes to a contest. and wins. while she is at the contest, the towns people get angry and beat him to death. They then find a journal he had been keeping of the things he helped them with.
Beauty and the beast was based on this story. the story is an ancient ittalian folk lore story. This is just one of it many versions made for eglish speaking people to understand better
I always loved this song because of its message. It's beautiful, and so is his voice. I loved this movie as a child. Thank you so much for posting this!
He's definitely a high bari. The note at 1:50 is an A flat. It sounds really high for him and since he is a high bari that is prob. the highest point of his register. Tenors can easily hit several notes above that. He's good, please don't misinterpret my answer to your question, I'm just saying his A flat sounds really high but only because he's a baritone. Great song though.
@chaseferrellmusic You're right, I'm a baritone/bass, and that A flat was one of the top couple notes in my register on most days. He's such a wonderful vocalist though :) (and i understood your comment :) )
Perhaps he is...perhaps he isnt. There is a massive back story to this movie.only parts of it revealed in the parts we see. The butler is from his kingdom...perhaps he can sing...but Rigoletto himself heals with his voice...
Joseph Paur is my second cousin. For real, no joke, no lie. I've met him; he has an astounding voice on film and in real life. He sang at my great-grandmother's funeral it was beautiful
That's awesome!! i've been trying to find out more information about Joseph Paur... But haven't found much on the internet. Has he done any more movies or recorded anything? I LOVE his voice!!
he's done a lot of little things...he played the sheriff in a movie called Split Infinity (where he doesn't sing) it was directed by his brother. You can find him on imbd...he's done a lot of work for the LDS church...and now he is living in Utah performing on stage. (he is my great uncle)
:) I'm twenty two and this song is what inspired me to start singing! I was about 4 yrs old when I saw this for the first time and since then I've traveled the world with SWCDA, Elite Choir International, and several other choirs! I've also sang at Carnegie Hall!! This was a life changing movie for me, and the message that it sends is SO wonderful!! Absolutely beautiful!! This is STILL my favorite movie. THANK YOU Feature Films For Family's!!
I love this movie, I watched it when I was just a kid!

Is he a baritone or a tenor? My ears say high baritone but I dunno.
leadoffeohippus 2 years ago
He's definitely a high bari. The note at 1:50 is an A flat. It sounds really high for him and since he is a high bari that is prob. the highest point of his register. Tenors can easily hit several notes above that. He's good, please don't misinterpret my answer to your question, I'm just saying his A flat sounds really high but only because he's a baritone. Great song though.

@chaseferrellmusic You're right, I'm a baritone/bass, and that A flat was one of the top couple notes in my register on most days. He's such a wonderful vocalist though :) (and i understood your comment :) )

Perhaps he is...perhaps he isnt. There is a massive back story to this movie.only parts of it revealed in the parts we see. The butler is from his kingdom...perhaps he can sing...but Rigoletto himself heals with his voice...

Joseph Paur is my second cousin. For real, no joke, no lie. I've met him; he has an astounding voice on film and in real life. He sang at my great-grandmother's funeral it was beautiful

That's awesome!! i've been trying to find out more information about Joseph Paur... But haven't found much on the internet. Has he done any more movies or recorded anything? I LOVE his voice!!

he's done a lot of little things...he played the sheriff in a movie called Split Infinity (where he doesn't sing) it was directed by his brother. You can find him on imbd...he's done a lot of work for the LDS church...and now he is living in Utah performing on stage. (he is my great uncle)

:) I'm twenty two and this song is what inspired me to start singing! I was about 4 yrs old when I saw this for the first time and since then I've traveled the world with SWCDA, Elite Choir International, and several other choirs! I've also sang at Carnegie Hall!! This was a life changing movie for me, and the message that it sends is SO wonderful!! Absolutely beautiful!! This is STILL my favorite movie. THANK YOU Feature Films For Family's!!

This is one of my favorite songs. It's beautiful. I'm slowly learning to play it on the piano :)
It's absolutely inspiring to study the lyrics. Michael McLean is an excellent song writer/composer!
