- Finale of the Oct.1 2011 25th anniversary concert of Phantom of the Opera at the Royal Albert Hall in London going viral with Ramin Karimloo Sierra Boggess Anthony Warlow John Owen Jones Colm Wilkinson Andrew Lloyd Webber Sarah Brightman
I love how Ramin kisses Sierra at the beginning of the video. Their friendship is adorable!
time code?
Ramin saw Colm in Phantom when he was 15-16 years old. That was 10-11 years before Ramin became the youngest Phantom. Colm was Ramin's inspiration, so it's wonderful to see how much respect he has for Wilkinson. It's possible that without Wilkinson, we wouldn't have Karimloo. Classy how he throws his arm over Colm as they leave the stage.
OK BUT THAT LITTLE KISS RAMIN GIVES SIERRA AT THE START IS ADORABLE
That is very nice!
My ovaries just exploded
Aw. I love how Ramin stands with Colm when the five phantoms sing 'The Phantom of the Opera' and treats him with so much respect. ^_^
Of all those versions of Erik standing there...I admit...I absolutely cannot take my eyes off Ramin...JOJ is awesome, as are the others...but there is just something about Ramin that is just. Plain. ELECTRIC...he just blows me away...*dreamy sighs*
Same
Not trying to burst your bubble, but maybe that something is the mask he’s wearing?
I will never get tired of hearing JOJ's 'soar' 12:45 😘 Utterly beautiful and see how others look on in adoration. I feel just like the lady in the black and white dress, totally mesmerised ❤️
I literally got goosebumps first time I heard him sing "soar". That was just perfection 💖
John is the greatest... and that's some accomplishment giving the company he is in right there.
Ramin must have been ecstatic being in this production with his best bud Hadley and with his angel, Sierra. Think this was evident in the bro hug that Hadley initiated and Ramin was only too pleased to
reciprocate and then he turns and tenderly kisses Sierra’s forehead. wow did anybody else feel the love ... at 1:48 he put his arm around her waist and pulled her in to say something to her.
And the two of them chatting away whilst ALW was talking haha and when the original London cast came out to take their bow, Ramin and Sierra were at this part literally facing each other and talking to each other all the way! Haha cheeky!
When Mr Colm had a false start, the other POTO started to look concerned and Peter turned and just stared at Ramin as if to ask - how now? It would have been funny under different circumstances. Loved
the way Anthony just stepped in when he was supposed to - so professional!
Ramin wears his heart on his sleeve. Noticeable is when he clapped for JOJ and Mr Colm - guess he really respects them and it is obvious.
Ramin is such a seriously kind person. After Mr Colm had his false start, Ramin positioned himself very close to Mr Colm and at one stage, he put his hand on his shoulder as if in encouragement. At 6:23 though, Ramin turns pointedly away as if to look at Sierra. At 8:00 Ramin again puts his arm on Mr Colm’s shoulder as if in solidarity as they sang in chorus. And then he just stood near him all the way. Such a nice guy right?
When Ramin disappeared backstage, he stuck out his arm to command Sierra so imperially to his side and Sierra so gracefully and naturally caught up with him and took his hand and they walked
off holding hands … awwwww. ALW sort of turned to look at them as if to say “you too sneaking off again?” hahahaha
At 14:49 whilst Ramin is singing, she physically leans towards him as if swooning before turning to the other POTO singing. And so sweet the way he kissed her hand, bending fully over her hand as if extending the maximum courtesy possible.
At 15:37, Ramin puts up his hand and Sierra immediately puts up her hand to hold his but ALW hand bombs them and grabs Ramin’s hand. The way she reached up for his hand is as if she knows that Ramin’s extended hand is always meant for her. That is a form of intimacy. Then at 15:44, she reaches out for his arm. Awwwwww!!
At the end of the hugs, somehow, in that crowd of people, Ramin and Sierra find their way back to each other’s side and would have exited together if not for an elderly lady coming up to hug Sierra and Mr
Colm coming up to Ramin.
This whole comment is just pure perfection.
15:37 Ramin was actually meaning to grab alw hand for the "you alone can make our song take flight" because alw is the writer/composer.
The handbomber in this case was Sierra 😜
The elderly lady is Gillian Lynne, the choreographer 😂
aww they’re so cute! 🥹
I know Colm Wilkinson ( the guy at the far right with white hair) was a bit early and started at the wrong timing but give him a break, lets just look at the amazing side that he can maintain his voice well, he is 75 yrs. old! Woah!
I think he just wasn’t supposed to sing “my power over you” tho 🤔 idk. I need to rewatch with earphones. Anyways, I think he forgot about his age for a while there, at the “sing for me” part 😂
I think he just got caught in the moment. Like he wanted to sing the whole thing himself ;) I was more disappointed he messed up the great Mr. Warlow but Peter recovered the set quite nicely.
It was definitely a case that he couldn't properly hear the music with the cheering
Andrew Lloyd Weber. What a tremendous talent to write so many beautiful songs.
Everyody is entitled to his/her opinion and I'm certain there have been quite a number of great Phantoms through the past 25 years which cannot be compared.
The roles and the play has grown. Let's not compare apples with oranges.
colm sang too early and everyone started looking at each other
The singing was good, but did anyone see Ramin and Hadley's little bro hug in the beginning? XD
Yes seriously are they gay or what.
I did
Leonie Ladner They're great friends, one of Ramin's son is named after Hadley Fraser, who is also the Godfather.
Ramin and Sierra do look like a happy married couple! When they came back on stage!
Ramin near the end of the music of the night with sierra💖💖💖😍😍😍😍
15:58 - One of my favorite chord progression changes as they hold that note!
I Loved it when john sang and ramin started clapping 6:33
Ramin I suppose was in heaven here. He is a known admirer of Colm at least and shows incredible amounts of love and respect toward all the greats. Being on stage with so many great Phantoms (and let's face it, he is incredible himself), I doubt, in his shoes, I could have held back my shows of admiration either.
JOJ - my favourite Phantom
Ramin was Raoul when John was the Phantom
the sweetest moment was probably when Ramin takes Micheal Crawford by the hand, looks at Sarah Brightman in the eye, and says "you alone could make our song take flight"
I know this is an old comment but hopefully someone will answer. Where is this? I've watched this several times and I can never catch it! I heard someone on a podcast recently mention it and sounds like such a wonderful moment but I can never find it on the video!
Ramin hugs Hadley then kisses Sierra on her head, he's got his priorities straight (😉) and I respect that
How many times have I watched this . how many times will I watch this ? Over and over again. A.L.Webber GENIUS.
I'm really impressed after all these years, Sarah still managed to nail the last E note perfectly! She's truly the Angel of Music IMHO.
Absolutely true
As a true Sarah Fan, I have to say she was definitely lipsyncing the last couple of notes
Definitely
The high E is usually recorded for all the sopranos
Colm came in too early and got everyone off, leaving Anthony Warlow to sing almost nothing alone. Yikes. Anthony needs more!
Hehe, "got everyone off" hehehehehe.. I'm sorry. But yes, that made my heart hurt. :'( How could someone so awesome mess up like that? And during an anniversary.. :(
PyrozPlayground not in the proshot version, at least
LOVE how Ramin brought Sierra out for the five phantoms.... she is like his comfort blanket! ;)
Love how Ramin was like “it’s chill dude” when he messed up.
What really is amusing is that at "the" musical-event of the year in London in a British play, both lead roles are played by an American (Sierra Boggess) and an Iranian by birth (Ramin Karimloo)
Can’t blame them, they’re amazing
Ramin is Canadian and therefore is still technically a British subject since we Canadians still consider the Queen as our head of state. Also, since Canada is part of the British commonwealth, there is yet another British connection to be made.
Elgene Tiamzon Ramin is both Canadian and Iranian. And that's just fine ✨✨
I loved how Ramin bowed when Sir Webber shook his hand... If I was near him, I'd be groveling at his feet! HE is an absolute genius!
Oh, Antony Warlow your singing has shivers down my spine how good you are.I have seen you perform that song live 2 times, 10 plus and a few years ago and you never waver in that song.
Pitty they didn't get Marina Prior in to sing the female role - the two together is hauntingly good.
I'd never seen Anthony play the role of Phantom in person but he's become my favourite from what i've heard on RUclips. Also might b a bit bias cos we're both Australian but even so how can u not love this guy? His rendition of Music Of The Night is one of the best u will EVER listen to. Plus having a baritone like Anthony Warlow as the Phantom beings about this sense of power and dominion, which is also a crucial element of the character. Sure a lot of phantoms like Ramin, JOJ and Michael Crawford do the same but there's just something about a baritone in the role that really solidifies that sense of power for me
I hope one of these days I get to see Anthony Warlow play this iconic Andrew Lloyd Webber character, or sing one of the Phantom's songs in person
U think Marina is good as the Phantom, try having Anthony Warlow sing with Sierra Boggess. That would b amazing 😍👌
I never tire of PHANTOM. I have seen it many times and some bad ones but the music remains enchating.
JOJ at 6:29 jesus CHRIST those are some pipes
starsonfire Yup, he's like, "Outta the way, kid. Let me show you how it's done..."
JOJ has me WEAK he's so amazing
you aint kidding
He’s the best Phantom
I love that he hugs Sierra, shakes Ramins hand and then just waves at Hadley 😂😂😂
Sarah is forever Andrew's angel.and his love for her remains in his 💓 heart
I was wondering, if he considers himself as a Phantom and Sarah as Christine... it would also explain that song love never dies...
JOJ is absolutely the best！btw，Ramin is also impressived.
RIP Colm Wilkinson
Missed the cue
I still love him tho, and he’ll always be my favorite Phantom
He is not dead. Good grief. The guy is 75 yrs old and can still sing. Give him credit. He might have come in too early but remember who he is. Anyone rememver Lord Darcy in season 3 of the Tudors? That was almost 10 yrs ago. The Phantom is not his only musical.
Les Miserabe with Hugh Jackman.
Jana Dietsch you do know he was making a joke?
Personally, I wanted Michael Crawford to the play the Phantom in the 25th, with Sierra and Ramin playing Christine and Raoul
He couldn’t sing anymore 😔 that’s why he wasn’t one of the Phantoms singing with Sarah
Melissa McDonald actually, he did say in 2019 he does want to return to the role one last time. And he was approached for the 30th anniversary staging in Paris. He still has the vocal and acting capability to do it
well michael had just gotten over an illness, and was working on another show at the time
I prefer Sarah playing Christine.
Phantom Phan I HOPE THIS HAPPENS 😭
I saw this at the movie theater. What an amazing show! I had goosebumps at this part. So happy to see Colm. I saw him live at Les Miserable. Great cast!
5:25
JOJ's cute little smile nod
Good job by Anthony for not being carried away by Colm. ;-)
Thumbs up to my boi Anthony who covered for everyone after the old boy came in a bit early. Crowds fault though.
Yay Anthony Warlow!!
Colm Wilkinson? Give him a break dude he's too old for that. I mean he still got the voice after all these. years. Still love his singing. XD He was into it.
Anthony Warlow starts singing- YES!!! My favorite Phantom is here!! And one of the best, if not THE best Phantom too
Sarah’s voice is just amazing!
I watched this in TV and was only disappointed by one thing. Michael Crawford wasn't one of the phantoms.
He lost his voice because of an illness prior to the show
He was there on Sunday 2nd October 2011
I think Michael Crawford was on vocal rest because he was performing in another show at the time
Anna Price correct...he was playing The Wizard of Oz at the Palladium
@@satchmo79 why didn't they get an understudy to perform for him so he could perform at this remarkable event. That I will never understand
This is a purely magical moment in the history of theatre. Brings tears. Thank you for posting it.
THIS THIS THIS!! Ramin is awesome.... but John's voice... is raw perfection
We came from Belgiumt, pricey tickets but worth it! People were taking pictures at the end, normally not allowed, and so was my daughter ... at least I thoght she was. But shot this video, sneaky little brat.
Weeks before we raced back from vacation in the US hearing about the premature end of "Love Never Dies" and wanted to see it before the closing. So we were at the Adelphi's Aug.27 final performance. What an evening as well.
Seen multiple Phantoms now at Broadway and the West End.
Just amazing, no words to explain my feeling in this moment!!
Ramin Karimloo played a minor part in the movie as young Christine's father, the violinist Daaé. My guess is he was the only person from the movie's cast on stage that evening.
I love the way Sarah shines like this😍😍😍😘😘😘😘
The entrance of the phantoms is the definition of epic
I LOVE THIS I CRIED SO MUCH :') first time i saw the musical
Colm is my favorite Jean Valjean. He sang much earlier I watched the 25th, they must’ve edited because I didn’t noticed. I wonder what Sarah mouthed to Andrew beginning of the song.
The E-6 note brings tears to one's eyes.
@montiralei what I heard was that Crawford was doing another show in London and he wanted to preserve his voice.
i would have loved to hear him sing!
this performance was amazing!
Best phantom Ramin , beautiful voice puts real to emotion into it , plus he’s sexy 😍
I love his big
I have been looking for this for so long, thank you!!!!
I'm here for Anthony Warlow and John Owen-Jones.
WHY didn't Michael Crawford sing in the finale? I read that he was doing Wizard of Oz and wanted to preserve his voice but I would have rather his understudy did the Wizard for a few nights and Michael sang in the finale. I do love Colm Wilkinson's voice but Michael was the original phantom!
I mean, Michael also hadn't sung in his Opera voice for a long time (voices need to be constantly trained and exercised). Plus you must realise this kind of collaborative performance still requires rehearsals which he couldn't attend due to his commitments to Wizard.
he had gotten over an illness and he was ssaving his voice for another show
i love colm wilkinson. he can make a blunder and look so absolutely natural at it, only someone familiar with the song would know.
Creo que cuando dijo “el original ángel de la música ... MI ángel de la música” morí de amor.
Sarah Brightman the one and only 💖
I was in that performance and the whole Albert Hall knew it, these were not first time fisitors but afficionados.
Everybody looked around wondering "How are they going to recorver from this? They did but I didn't want to be in Colm's shoes when he realised what he was doing while he was doing it and thousands of people watching live. Also I wonder what was said about it backstage.
@kobjai That is John Owen-Jones. Currently he is The Phantom at Her Majesty's Theatre until this coming Saturday Dec.10th.
So nice to see all of the Original cast and here the original, beautiful "Angel Of Music", Ms. Sarah Brightman take back her part of "Christine" in this video..=D
I really wish that I could have seen this live, but Thank-You soo much for uploading this special video..=D
Sarah eres la mejor ,,, estás entre las Sopranos mejores a nivel Mundial ,porque no solo vale la voz ...a ti te acompañan todas las cualidades que puede tener una persona ....bondad, carisma educación ,y muchas más y la belleza ,la simpatía ,yo que te vi cantar en directo ....me fascinante. ERES. UNICA ..desde SANTANDER. ESPAÑA besos con todo mi AMOR ....
I was there, on the right of the stage.... wonderful memories!!
Awwwwwwww Ramin kissed Sierra on the forehead -3 :)
ANDREW LLOYD WEBER, THE GENIUS !!!!! AND MICHAEL CRAWFORD THE GREATEST "PHANTOM OF THE OPERA"........
Aside from Ramin and the great Anthony Warlow
Thank you so much for sharing this! It must have been the most incredible experience!
Sierra is engaged to Ramin's understudy from "Love Never Dies"
Sarah will always be Christine
Not anymore. She got herself an Italian guy.
Oh John owen Jones... why weren't you the Phantom in the performance? I love Ramin, but John's voice just blows me away.
Apparently he was the first choice!
Melissa McDonald John would have been awesome. But the 25th Anniversary was just advertising Ramin and Sierra for Love Never Dies. It makes sense but it also makes you wonder too.
@@codymays9943 Actually the 25th Anniversary was after the LND closed
Nefeli I didn’t say it wasn’t.
Why advertise Sierra and Ramin for LND then.....? It makes no sense.....
I was literally stunned by this...I could not take my eyes off the screen. This is an epic, and my favorite musical EVER
I love JOJ!! He's amaze.....going to see him again as Phantom soon!!! :D
Anthony Warlow!!! :)
Warlow saved his arse!
Anthony Warlow best by far.. Ann in Canada
Agreed. And my favorite Phantom at that. Ramin comes in close second, followed by Ben Crawford
This venue is incredible.
@YamiraSrima His name is Peter Jöback, he's a Swedish singer, considered one of the best in Sweden. Sometime during 2012 he's going to be The Phanom in the London production. Next to Anthony Warlow, John Owen-Jones and Ramin Karimloo on stage he couldn't impress me. I fear he will be a minor Phantom.
OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!! Thank you SOOOOOO much for putting this on here! I live in Wisconsin, USA and obviously couldn't make it to the performance but have been dying to see it! And I can't wait till it comes out in February!
I do like The Phantom of the Opera at the Royal Albert Hall and have got the edited filmed performance of it on Blu-Ray and DVD and like watching it
anthony sounds absolutely amazing though
Its amazing that even after all these years Sarah is still able to hit that last note in the Title song. I know this musical was written for her voice.. but this just shows that Sarah set the bar for all Christine's follow.
I think the last notes are prerecorded (as they do usually), they sound oddly similar to the actual official recording of the 25th..
@@xxKakarot I had the pleasure of seeing Ms. Brightman on stage when she was starring as Christine.. I can assure you that final note in this recording was not pre-recorded... what you hear is a live vocal... Sarah is after all a professional soprano.. She should be able to hit that note in her sleep.. she has had decades to prefect her voice and craft...!
colm is like ramin's father XD
this was beautiful thank you for uploading it
Sarah Brightman and the 5 Phantoms performed in every show, 3 times.
But Phantom's 25 th anniversary was in RAH and in USA so how is that 3 time s?
@Aditi Pandey
There were 3 shows for the 25th anniversary at the Royal Albert Hall, being on 01/10/2011 evening and 02/10/2011 matinee and evening.
I wish the 25th aniversty cast can come to the US
AMAZING! LOVED IT! Thank you for sharing!
Love to see it in the audience perspective. 💜
Definitely, Ramin Karimloo and JOJ as a close 2nd! Peter Joback seems to be really into himself.
Missing the best one of them all Michael Crawford
and how he took care of Colm...adorable...there is no great phantom than RK!
* DEAR GOD THERES SO MANY COMMENTS ABOUT MICHAEL CRAWFORD. HE HAD JUST GOTTEN OVER A REALLY BAD DISEASE , HE WAS ALSO SAVIN HIS VOICE FOR ANOTHER PLAY. HE FINALLY FELT WELL ENOUGH AND HE DIDNT WANNA PUSH THE LIMITS. THERES YOUR ANSWER.*
This was just shown on PBS and I knew I heard Ramin!
I love you! Real Christine - Sarah Brightman.
Love all these phantoms (especially Warlow, Joback, and Karimloo) but I highly recommend looking UP Franc D'Ambrosio in the role if anyone hasn't already.
Franc was the first Phantom I saw live and he was amazing.
i love ramin applauding to JOJ
Come august 29, 2015, my 4th Phantom as only the Brits know how.
Damn Sarah has got pipes ...after all this years ...
so agree with you! Saw him playing the role last year in Dublin and he was just so magnificent he gave me goosebumps. They changed the lead role the following week so I feel very privilaged and lucky to have seen him!
Nunca nadie como Sarah brightman para este tema
ramin and hadley's little bro hug at the start tho like that was hella cute
Que elegancia tienes Sarah ,eres Única..esa voz linda esos movimientos eres Unica
Que maravilla los veinticinco años del Fantasma de la Opera ,en Londres. Unico
imagine being in a room full of like 100 people that all look like you.
