I'd like to see LEA as Norma in Sunset. But with the original staging and direction
Yes Gawd!!! Classic belting. She was flawless.
The kind of belting I like!
The fact that she sounds different from what we're used to hearing from her really speaks to her versatility! what a talent!
The character calls for it! :)
LEA has already performed in Gypsy when she was a Small girl she played BABY JUNE when she was 6 & in the same Show With Monique Wilson (who was Lea’s Understudy in Miss Saigon premiere London 1990)Was another child in the show Gypsy aged 7 this was an Amateur show of Gypsy staged in Manila republic Society…& OMG both kids were on a Breakfast tv programme Live at talking about Gypsy & her Dance/ Drama 🎭 teacher said LEA Had perfect Pitch then !!
@@CefStuff Absolutely. Xx
Her voice is so malleable.
@@mhlkta8516 malleable - I used that word to describe her voice in my other video of her
Please, someone start assembling a creative team for Lea to lead a full production of Gypsy!
Gypsy or Sunset Boulevard or Evita
@@cdl6953oh, wow! Sunset Boulevard, please!
shes too old for evita@@cdl6953
YES!!!
@@cdl6953 An Asian playing Evita? What century are you living in?
Just saw her at the Sondheim show in London. OUTSTANDING is an understatement to describe her performance, similar to what critics have said in their reviews.
that last note was *chef’s kiss*
My favorite part was "santa Claus"
Every hair on my arms are standing straight up!
Goosebumps!!!
Thank you for all your sweet, supportive comments. Keep them coming!
Dayum. This is Lea taking the step from ingénue to matriarch and I love it.
Yeah, from princess to Queen!
I saw her in OLD friends in London and she's great! I want full production with her as mama Rose.
If only
A magnificent blend of Ethel, Patti and Angela Lansbury. She has been a glorious addition to the Broadway stage and is about to become the Superstar that she deserves to be. Give her all the revivals: Sunset Boulevard, Sweeney Todd, The Prom, Mame, Into the Woods and on and on. Oh and some movies too!!!
Oh, I dreamed of her playing Norma Desmond!
And Angela is my favorite rose probably the best rose out of them all not to brassy not overdoing it and captures the bitterness the tragedy and psychotic nature of rose
"About to become the superstar" ????? What world are you in where she already isn't?
@@waynesalisbury56 Ok you got me. I went to her Wikipedia page and realized my scope of "famous" is based on American ideals. She has been working constantly all across the world. But I need Cameron Macintosh to produce vehicle after vehicle for her starring in classic musical staples and make her an engrained part of Broadway's leading ladies. I don't want her to be an asterisk for "first Asian to play"..., I want her accepted as full-fledged Broadway superstar.
Mame? Uhmmm . . . how could she be a Yankee and ". . . a Georgia peach"? Nope. That's stretching it.
This was…overwhelming. Please do a full production!
I am no Cameron Mackintosh, but let me see what I can do. Hahaha!
Lea blew me away in London at Sondheim Old Friends. You have a new huge fan!
Saw this show. She was amazing. 👏
Hope they release a recording from this cast, too
Lea's vibrato is 🔥
I know right! Hers and Judy Kuhn's are to die for!
LEA has Perfect Pitch I was lucky enough to see her In ‘Miss Saigon’ we Were @ the theatre Royal 🎭 Drury Lane London Summer 1990 OMG she was Amazing & 3 years later we saw Miss Saigon @ the Palace theatre Manchester & we were truly Blessed as Monique Wilson Played KIM & it was Fabulous to see her it took Cameron Mackintosh 6 months to get the Stage& set ready - Helicopter 🚁-& everything just like the London show it was Wonderful to see both Girls who came from Manila…….
This woman can do absolutely anything!! Love her!! Now how long do we have to wait before they mount a full production with her as Mama Rose?
She’s already done it in Manila Phillipines about 25 years ago it’s on RUclips
I reckon they could stage it here & her real life daughter Nicole SALONGA Chien who is currently Lea’s PA ❤in London for her Mom & Nicole has a Wonderful Voice as you will probably know has Appeared with her mum in Live shows in the Phillipines…..
Really? Why didn't I know about this? OMG
@@ninastansfield9590Do you have a link for this? There's never been a record of her performing this anywhere, and she's only ever said this role was on her bucket list. She also would've been way too young to play the role.
BRAVO!
My dream cast of Gypsy revival should be: Lea Salonga and Eva Noblezada.
And why not? Both Asians
@@CefStuff Right. Except real-life Rose Horovitz and her daughter, Gypsy Rose Lee, were NOT. Not gonna fly.
@@mylesgarcia4625 I get you
Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
Omg spectacular!
Audio only yet specatular already!
Audio only yet specatular already!
I literally searched for this yesterday morning, couldn't find it. 24 hours later, poof here it is. Thank you!!
My pleasure! You're welcome!
Are you a shoplifter too? This is gross breach of copyright
@@williamgardiner2010Why, are you a shoplifter? Cause I'm not... RUclips allowed it. I received an email from RUclips saying that I'll be sharing revenue with the copyright owner. So, definitely not a breach because I got permission. Don't worry, I'm a law-abiding folk. You also have to be familiar with YT t & c
Powerful
Couldn't agree more!
Wow!
She is perfection.
Indeed
❤❤❤❤
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The show ended. I will miss it dearly.
Was there absolutely fantastic
Wow! Lea is a sure fire! As part of our high school musical she is where I draw my inspiration from when we did songs of Sondheim where I sang Anyone can whistle. Keep inspiring young talents like me Lea!❤
Share this video with other Lea Salonga fans! 😍
Just.....WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!
I know, right? Please see her at Old Friends and be amazed!
oh my god
Yes!
OMG! She sounds almost like Ethel Merman!!!
I know right?! Clearly, she got her inspiration from her!
Which Ethel Merman are you talking about? If you are referring to the original Rose, they sound NOTHING alike.
Except she she sings every note on key, unlike Ethel who was only loud!
wow - I mean she's always been amazing but a few years I don't think her belt was chesty enough to handle Gypsy but her belt in her chest is so STRONG.
I was kinda confused with what you said. But I think you mean before her belting before was weak and now is strong?
I’m here after the LA and Broadway transfer announcement.
Oh, good!
HUHUH I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. What else did Lea sing pls?
Songs from Sweeney Todd, Somewhere, Losing My Mind, and a few more
Do you have any of he Lovett from Sweeney Todd from this concert?
Let's wait and see. Er hear
I smell a revival soon
Pies?
Would love to see her as Evita.
She is too old for the role?
Culturally offensive casting! What planet are you on?
There are few enough jobs for Latinas as it is. Your comment is culturally insane.
@@user-sh4mv3tc3ras if Patti Lupone or Caroline Bowman were culturally correct choices either
how did you get this audio?
Oh, it was public. Michael Ball posted it on his own show.
@@CefStuffwhere could I find this?
Well, she didn't exactly "play" Mama Rose. She performed the Mama Rose's character's tour de force!
Old Friends, a celebration of Stephen Sondheim's work
The character's name is Rose. No one calls her mama Rose. The kids call her "Momma," spelling correct, not Mama, but nobody anywhere ever calls her Mama Rose. Stop it.
Okay, people. We've just learned something new today!
Nobody cares.
The Tempo is too fast
She's like a locomotive!
Definitely compared to the original (Ethel!). But tempo seems comparable to Patti LuPone's & Bette Midler's...
Actually, I just listened to older recordings, and the tempo is the same or even slower than other versions.
@@old.not.too.grumpy.❤
OK I'm just going to say it. Ethel Merman was dreadful.
Omigosh! Don't start a fight hahaha
@@CefStuff 😆😆😆 Sorry!
Merman was no actress.
Whoa!!! Ethel Merman would be proud!
Yup, the style is very Ethel
