@NarwhalsAreBeast123 So, except for Nick Jonas, you're basically saying you want the 25th anniversary concert?

[NarwhalsAreBeast123]

@lilsisasu Pretty much, it was a good show. I don't really do my research on the Thernardiers...so, yeah.

@TLKthing3 best cast would be valjean joj javert earl carpenter cosette katia hall eponine chasten harmon or samantha barks marius michael ball thenardier ashley artus enjorlas ramin karimloo

[xxKYLiEEEox8]

Wow, does anyone know the Eponine in this specific recording? She was great!

[MrClimbfall20]

This Enjolras has an awesome voice. I love the way he sings "at the barricades of freedom" haha

[Monkeyballmania]

Ok, new Symphonic Cast ULTIMATE.

Valjean- JOJ

Javert- Quast or Carpenter

Fantine- Lea Salonga

Cosette- Katie Hall

Eponine- Frances Rufelle

Thenardier- Matt Lucas

Mme. Thenardier- Jenny Galloway

Marius- Gareth Gates

Enjolras- Ramin Karimloo

[TLKthing3]

@Monkeyballmania Valjean: JOJ (no discussion)

Javert: Earl Carpenter

Cosette - Katie Hall/ Gina Beck (as long as Cosette looks young and innocent)

Eponine - Samantha Barks (I was kinda impressed at the 25th anniversary)

Thénardier- Matt Lucas ( he was okay, I guess. I don't really care for this role)

Mme. Thénardier - Jenny Galloway (dûh)

Marius - Ramin Karimloo (only if he does it the same way as years ago)

Enjolras - Jonathan Williams (Best understudy ever, awesome voice)

[Monkeyballmania]

@TLKthing3 Who would you get for Fantine?

[TLKthing3]

@Monkeyballmania I'm not sure... I love Lea Salonga, but her Fantine was not her best performance imo.

I don't like the role of Fantine at all because there are so many actresses who belt too much.

[Phantomfan61]

Hey! This performance was on my birthday!!! :D

[scootyscoot4]

For a new Symphonic Cast Recording: Valjean- John Owen Jones Javert-Philip Quast Fantine-Kerry Ellis Cosette-Leanne Dobinson Eponine-Lea Michele Thenardier-Gary Beach Madame-Jenny Galloway Marius-Jon Robyns Enjolras-Ramin Karimloo or David Thaxton

[prarafan727]

the main guy i forget his name but hes amazing at 2:34 with that "moreee" beastinnnnnnn and then again at 2:46

[JenovaCelestia]

This performance seems a touch out of tune to me. It could be the recording quality, but it got back in tune when they sang: "Tomarrow we'll discover what our God in heaven has in store". Anyone else hear it?

[Fiyero06]

the runnign rumor is that in that part its acutalyl a recording that comes in because if you lsiten to every version of this from the revival it alwasy soudns teh same and i'm sorry as a performer i know that it will never sound like that 100% of the time in 20 different videos

[musicmanaj92]

@Fiyero06 idk about that...i am also a musician who works in musical theater and i noticed that while alot of the vocals may sound the same, the rhythms in all the videos are completly different. Things like tempo and pauses vary in every performance...for example this was the first time ive heard the longer pause between the last "day" and "more"...you could be right but there alot of rhythmic variations between the videos

[Brigard23]

What's the name of the person singing the "one day more" at 2:35?

AMAZING!!!

[musicgirl4ever1]

That would be John Owen-Jones and if anyone is intrested is about to do the 25th anniversery tour in the UK (wish I could see him but it's pretty much sold out)

[whnlifegivsulemons34]

isn't it amazing?! my favorite part!

[LordoftheTrapdoors]

@Brigard23 Of course John Owen-Jones... aka "THE BEST"!

[rosssRAWR]

this is awesome!

the enjolras has such a clear voice

love the high note at the end (:

thanks for posting

[operastar1994]

ong word love Les Miserables

[MichaelJavert]

I have premium audio equipment that works and I can hardly hear a word or note of this.

[Eriksoneandonly]

This is SO AWESOME. Thanks for posting.

If you don't mind, who's the Javert in this one? :D He's cool. (So's Enjolras, whoa. That guy's got a voice.)

[PHANTOMfan08]

Robert Hunt is the Javert

[Eriksoneandonly]

Thank you kindly!

[blindsurfer3]

LEA SALONGA for Eponine, I strongly insist!!!!

[standup22]

is this chip zien as thenardier?? it sound

[MissLeannxx]

MEGAN MCGINNIS<3

My god I love her!

Sutton Foster is an amazing Eponine too, they both were amazinggg in little women.

lol.

[Fiyero06]

ok anyone for a new complete Symphonic cast recording?

Valjean-John Owen-Jones

Javert-Michael McCarthy

Enjolras-TBD

Marius-Adam Jacobs

Fantine-Lea Salonga

Thenardier-Gary Beach

Mme. T-Jenny Galloway

Grantaire-Drew Sarich

Eponine-TBD

[PHANTOMfan08]

same as yours except

Eponine: Celia Keenan Bolger

Enjolras: David Bardsley

Cosette: Rebecca Caine or Judy Kuhn

and the song "I Saw Him Once" has to be reinstated.

[Fiyero06]

Hmm nah.

Eponine:From The 2004 berlin production

Marius- from the 2008 Netherlands production

Enjolras- From the 2004 Berlin production

nah "I saw him once" is just a strange song and doesnt really make any sense

[PHANTOMfan08]

it would Cosette more of a role.

[Fiyero06]

that is true

[robwhite92]

Enjolras = Aaron Lazar

[Fiyero06]

enjolras=Max Von Essen Aaron was long gone by the time this performance came around

[robwhite92]

that was supposed to be a reply for down there when you were talking about a new symphonic recording..and you wrote Enjolras= TBD ..i meant it should be Aaron Lazar

[JSanzLesMiz]

For me if there were a new Sumphonic Cast Recording it would have to be Valjean-Randal Keith OR Oystein Wiik (from Oslo/London) Javert-Philip Quast Fantine-Judy Kuhn Cosette-I'm not sure of her name but she's Cosette on this recording actually. Eponine-Megan McGinnis Thenardier-Gary Beach (duh haha) Madame-Jenny Galloway Marius-Adam Jacobs Enjolras-Anthony Warlow (I know he's older now but I dont really care) Grantaire- Drew Sarcich

[subwayeatfresh45]

Cosette kinda sounds like Ali Ewoldt

[jpg0901]

@Fiyero06 yeah sure...but...

Eponine- Samantha Barks

Enjolras- Ramin Karmiloo

[chgriffiths]

despite the fact it is recorded, i do like the new orchestrations

[Fiyero06]

OK. every time they get to TOMORROW WE'LL DISCOVER no matter what video i watch it sounds the same i have to say i think that part was recorded

[ARReith]

I don't know for sure, but I would agree. It certainly sounds like it!

[ParanormalIndiana]

Highly Unlikely. It could simply be because of the way the line is sung that it always sounds the same.

[adam64897]

it's much slower here than on the OBC recording.

[adam64897]

now why the hell would they do that?

[Fiyero06]

because the show has changed alot since 1988 music and lyric wise and everyone except for Marius, Enjolras and Javert and the Thenardiers on the Original Intenational cast CD were horrible

[RosaRaymii101]

this was an amazing cast. too bad I couldent see it =( les mis is my all time favorite broadway show!Thanks for posting

[rereadingreality]

not much applause...

[gb363gb]

...probably because they hated the new orchestration changes!!

[organist08]

I agree...haven't they heard the saying, "If it's not broke, don't fix it"???

[Hasselhoffhater]

Well there were spellbound?

[RequiemOfDarkness]

I was there for this performance, I cried my way through it. They were so amazing and there was so many wonderful people in this revival.

[Hasselhoffhater]

God how I wished I was there to see that performance...I hope they bring it back again...

[adam64897]

they will.

[javertlover]

do you mean 1/6/2008?

[PHANTOMfan08]

No, I mean 6/1/2008. I use this way of writing the date. day/month/year

[kittypurrrr]

Weird, but at least I understand though. I was about to ask if you could time travel to the future.

[Catherine3234]

It's the English way of doing it...

[Broadwaymusialzz]

do you have a little fall of rain from this preformance?

[PHANTOMfan08]

I do, I'll post it later for you.

[javertlover]

Adam left?

[Broadwaymusialzz]

no he stayed through the whole run....

[Fiyero06]

I lvoe you person who posted this

[PHANTOMfan08]

I didn't record it. I do trade and I am looking for mainly Phantom and Les Mis audios.

On my page there is a link to my list.

[CapnEJay]

[PHANTOMfan08]

Gary Tushaw, Tom Lucas & Michael Ball are my favourites
