What music are you listening to right now!?!?

That's a beautiful song. I think Phantom is perhaps his best work.

I've seen it 3 times at it's home, Her Majesty's in The Haymarket but I have this

Looks like I'll be $25 lighter when I get home. Thanks for the link, Gabe. I have the movie version, but the stage is where it's at.





Just as a matter of interest, how much is it in the UK iTunes Store?

It's £9.99 over here. It hasn't got all the bells and whistles of the show because of the structure of the Royal Albert Hall but it's still a great watch, at he end they get Michael Crawford and a few other Phantoms on stage to sing some of the best bits. I have the movie version too, watched it once but didn't really like it.

Surely better than the movie, although I was surprised by Gerard Butler's voice.

Much, much better than the movie.......although I had my tonsils removed once and that was better than the movie.....

Shock, horror. Gerrard Butler is my hero. I didn't realise it was him until we saw the film years later. It must be the first time I saw him act. He did a bloomin good job but Michael Crawford is my favourite phantom and Sarah Brightman as Christine Daae.

This expresses your opinion quite well.
I had no chance watching anything else than the movie, so had to be content with it.

I wouldn't have recognized him. I had to read the cast twice to believe it's him.

La Fille Mal Gardée, by Hérold/Lanchberry. Absolutely delightful music, from one of the most fun ballets ever. There's a Royal Ballet DVD that's well worth watching.

The wonderful, spectacular, magnificent, goosebump-inducing Telarc recording of the Berlioz Requiem, Robert Shaw conducting the Atlanta Symphony and Chorus. I love this piece, notwithstanding I am not the slightest bit religious. Here's the Dies Irae and Tuba Mirum of that recording on YT:

Switch on your subwoofers, return your tray tables and flight attendants to their upright positions, and crank the volume to eleven! The rest of the mass is there, too, in six more segments.

As good as this CD is, it's a pallid substitute for the experience of seeing and hearing it performed live by the St. Louis Symphony and 200 singers of four combined choruses, under Slatkin, in Powell Hall. My biggest musical disappointment was that that performance was not recorded.

As a big fan of choir/choral music I like this.

But if you want beautiful and a stress buster, how about Teardrop by Massive Attack?
