Product Details

To celebrate 10 years as the world's most popular musical, the cast of Les Misérables threw a phenomenal birthday party at London's Royal Albert Hall in 1995. A decade after Trevor Nunn directed its premiere at the Barbican Centre, and the subsequent move into what became a permanent home at the West End Palace Theatre, producer Cameron Macintosh felt the time had come for a little outing for "the miserables." Conductor David Charles Abell, having climbed out of the cluttered Palace pit, for one glorious night has the entire Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at his disposal and there are appearances from over 150 singers--birthday celebs from Les Mis stagings worldwide--who flocked to the grandiose venue. Hosts for the night are the 1995 London cast: Colm Wilkinson's Valjean has power and beauty in "Who Am I?" and "Bring Him Home," and Michael Ball is a charming Marius. Miss Saigon herself, Lea Salonga, gets the crowd-pleasing favorite "On My Own." The Albert Hall sounds filled to the brim with an appreciative audience that contributes to the festive atmosphere. The result is a real treat for fans and lovers of Boubil and Schönberg's greatest musical--this double CD is an obligatory item in every collection of Les Mis memorabilia. --Yngvil V.G.

(5 stars) - Les Miserables reunion concert CD
This reunion concert is excellent. The music is fabulous and the voices are great. The excitement and enthusiasm from both performers and the audience is contagious.

(5 stars) - Love of Music
My wife and I love GOOD music. We see as many musicals as we can afford. We are not critics, but know music. Critics are just that.....born to criticize. We go to enjoy the performances of the actors and the songs they sing.

Le Mis is one of our favorites, that's why we bought this CD. The fact that there was a "crash" of something backstage during one song shows that things do happen in live performances. Did I hear it? Yes I did, but it in no way demeans the performance or my enjoyment of the music. In fact, I only heard it because I read the review of a critic. Normally, I never read those things.

Was this product good? No it was really good, enjoyable and worth the purchase. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys good music and Le Mis.

(5 stars) - Les Miserables 10th Anniversity CD
This is an outstanding musical performance and you find yourself humming the songs for days. It's a wonderful collection at a very reasonable price. Would highly recommend!

(5 stars) - Loving it
I had a copy on VHS that I made from aired TV. It was not really clear enough, but had good sound. This DVD is very clear and the sound is great. The performance is wonderful as is the story.

(5 stars) - best version available!!!
I have been a fan of musicals for the last 20 years and can say without doubt this is the best audio version of Les Mis EVER! When they say dream cast, they mean it. from Colm Wilkinson to Lea Salonga, Michael Ball and Ruthie Henshall, this audio version of the 10th anniversary concert is better by leaps and bounds than the Both the American and London Original cast discs. The ending with the Jean Val Jeans from around the world was amazing! This is a must for any musical theatre aficionado!!!
