Worked with him several years ago; one of the genuinely nicest guys you'll ever meet, and a very fine talent.
He is by far the best Jekyll/Hyde ever.
Thanks for your supports and comments, I'm so much greaetful 🌹🌹 and I hope you keep on supporting me?
Check out Joseph Mahowald
He is so handsome. Beautiful voice.
Still don't know who I like more. Anthony Warlow or Robert Cuccioli. They are both amazing!! This is one of the most beautiful musical songs ever written.
Both such talents!
Both placed third on AMERICAN IDOL.
Kidding!
@@graemetessier7888The best version of This is the moment is Colm Wilkinson's version. Listen to it.

What makes him even more attractive is to see how touched he was by that fanatic reception of his performance.
How he did not win the Tony is unbelievable, especially when he does "Confrontation".
I know he deserves a tony
Absolutely. The pre Broadway version with him was even better though.
Absolutely….I still am shocked 😢
I absolutely agree. His on stage transformation into Jekyll was remarkable and totally believable, a mesmerizing performance. He deserved a Tony. This is what I have come to understand. the New York theater producer community at the time was and probably still is a rather closed club unwelcoming to "outsiders" and Frank Wildhorn (and company) were real outsiders and to this day he still is. His shows and songs are extremely popular abroad much more so than here. NYC critics, another part of the club, put down all his shows as being derivative at best or "out of date" (they often used the same criticism against Jerry Herman too) and amateurish at worse. So Jekyll and Hyde and company had no chance at the Tonys. Nonetheless, Wildhorn did manage to do a feat on Broadway especially for an outsider in1999 he had 3 shows Jekyll & Hyde, The Scarlet Pimpernel, and The Civil War all running at the same time. I also think Pimpernel with great Tony worthy show with Tony worthy performances by Douglas sills and Christine Andreas. The Civil War was also very moving and thoughtful. It just shows you that talent isn't often the most important. Playing the game is more important in many "industries" and Broadway is no different. Of course, luck like everywhere else in life plays its role too.
@@bobbywise2313 I absolutely do too. They listen to the critics. They should listen to the audiences. The pre-Broadway version which I saw in New Orleans was even better than the Broadway version. Also the pre-Broadway sets fit the show, in my opinion, much better too. Why they kept fooling around with it is beyond me. It already had 10 years of revision time already. They did the same with The Scarlet Pimpernel. Which I thought was a terrific show too. It had a much lighter heart when it opened on Broadway and when I saw it the audience stood up and cheered and cheered. The newer version went for the dark side and even though I thought it was still good, it changed the heart of the show and I think the ruse that Pimpernel was based a strong hero disguised as a rather foolish If not insane fop worked the best. The light heartedness was gone and it was now just a hero against a demon. Simply didn't work for me as an improvement. But then I love musicals in general. I am grateful that I had chance to an audience member, an important part of the theater industry equation too, at these wonderful shows.
I've seen him perform, and it was even more heartrending the the play "Joseph..." You should see him in full costume, fully in the part. It's beautiful.
Those eyes!! 😍 Was such a privilege to witness him live on stage performing this role that was made for him. One of the most remarkable live performances I’ve ever witnessed 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Amazing voice with such control of his vocal chords, I love both Robert and Anthony singing this song in such a passionate way
Saw J&H in 1997 and he was incredible. IMO he was robbed of the Tony award. His "Confrontation" scene was incredible. My wife knew him from his St. Mary's days. Love this clip of "This Is the Moment".
This was the greatest moment of them all experiencing such talent. Wish I was able to see him in person.
Robert Cuccioli is easily the best version of Jekyll/Hyde in the musical’s run! He actually got a Tony nomination for his performance :)
Robert is so Handsome and gives me goosebumps when he sings. He has the most fantastic voice I have ever heard. He was so increditable in Jekyll & Hyde.
just gotta say how unbelievably attractive this man is. everything about him is compelling and passionate--his voice, his face...his expression.
LOVE YOU :)
I saw him in Jekyll & Hyde in LA before it went to Broadway! My Aunt and I just looked at each other wide mouthed when we saw him appear onstage...WOW! Hunk! And, talented!
I met Cuccioli and Linda Eder in 1998 after one of the spectacular shows. They couldn't have both been friendlier and cordial; free with their time and full of laughter. Cuciolil is light years better in the role than any of the others who came after him as well.
Ray Wedell Wrong. Anthony Warlow is not "light years" inferior. Have you even heard him?
+organboi I do love our Anthony :)
My wife knew him from his HS days at St. Mary's and he is a great guy.
+organboi I know this is 2 years old but technically he said others who came after him, and Warlow's recording is from 3 years before Cuccioli. Regardless, Warlow never played it on stage so it's difficult to compare them fairly imo.
@@organboi I have heard Warlow and he's terrible. Cuccioli is who made this role and it's his. This song is his. He is the definitive jakyll & Hyde. I have no hatred of Warlow, but I'm tired of his fans belittling the one who made this role what it is today. Robert Cuccioli is Jekyll and Hyde. Full stop. This song is his.
I really was born so late, by all of these comments, I wish i could see him perform in live before when he did Jekyll and Hyde !
The best Jekyl/Hyde ever. I'm so glad this video exists! I've only seen the blurry recordings of his theater performance haha! He's cute!
Thanks for your supports and comments, I'm so much greaetful 🌹🌹 and I hope you keep on supporting me?
Best Jekyll and Javert EVER in Broadway history. PERIOD!!!! Seen him 6x. Unreal
+Michael LaMonica While I do prefer Rob Evan as Jekyll, Rob Cuccioli is definitely the best Hyde
Jack Moody i still like anthony warlow as jekyll/hyde
@@nachosinmay No one comes close to Anthony Warlow in this role. Sorry, but true.
What a spectacular rise from Rosie - such fearlessness/courage.
how wonderful voice !!!greatest job
Bravissimo e bello ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Still don't know who I like more. Anthony Warlow or Robert Cuccioli. They are both amazing!!
Now this is a moment, to be remembered
Hallelujah Great lyrics and melody.
The reason he gets to sit forever with the gods is because he has the voice of a god
THIS is exactly the way this song should be sung! Love it!
no joke- this guy is the guest artist in our production of the rock musical 2 gentlemen of Verona, and he is freakin amazing, everyone's gonna get quality time with him (and probably autographed memorobilia as well), its amazing!!!!!!
He is standing all awkward at first and then his stance slowly transforms into a powerful one
-brava-
And now I have been reminded why this is my favorite male solo in this show if not in any musical I've seen.
awesome, chills down my spine
WOW, what a moment. Chills, simply amazing
his feet never move, such power and control
powerful voice.....
Bravo Bravo excellent e excellent. Truly inspiring uplifting. could listen to Robert
Cuccioli all day long every day. Truly amazing.!!!
I love, love LOVE Robert Cuccioli!
Oh.. I love this man.
my favorite rendition of this moving song
Amazing!!
He floored me. I am ready for psychiatric therapy sessions for thinking I could sing. Haha. Gosh, this was totally impressive and beyond description. Truly awe inspiring performance. Bravo!
Beautiful!!!!!!!!!
@theatredrok
Are you serious?! His vowels are perfect.
Untrained singers sing "When all I've doan." Cuccioli sings "When all I've done."
Untrained singers sing "Becomes moin." Cuccioli sings "Becomes mine."
Untrained singers sing "My final taaaste." Cuccioli sings "My final test."
And the amount of passion and grit he puts into this is unmatched.
He's perfect! Thank you for voices like this!
That is one gorgeous man.
Love both Anthony/Robert -- impossible to choose between
the two.
Gives me goosebumps
I sat 8th row center in Houston -- last show before they hit broadway -- and heard Bob sing this song in Jekyl & Hyde. It was AWESOME!!!
This is one of my favorite songs from Jekyll and Hyde.
Cuccioli is outstanding------[ am hoping to see him perform somewhere in the tri-state as soon as possible--i don't care if i have to drive--walk or swim--i will be there
Thanks for your supports and comments, I'm so much greaetful 🌹🌹 and I hope you keep on supporting me?a
Bravo
Living proof God sends angels to sing for us.
one word: GOOSEBUMBS....
HOLY CRAP, THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!
Wow!!!! Fabulous
OHMYFREAKINGGOD, I'M IN LOVE.
Thanks for your supports and comments, I'm so much greaetful 🌹🌹 and I hope you keep on supporting me?
wonderfull😍😍
He did Phantom as well. THere are two different musical versions of the Phantom of the Opera| . The Lloyd Webber version is the best known version. The lesser-known version was the one that he starred in. He has also acted with David Hasselhoff, who has also played Jekyll and Hyde as well.
What a voice
Saw him in the show...took my breath away. Very hot!!!!
cucci-stick-it-in-my-holie is awesome!
I've worked with him (summer stock)
Would love to see him play the Wizard on Broadway
Outstaning!!
Thank you!
Vince Shaw has a nice voice. But on this song no one can touch Robert Cuccioli. Definitely one of my favorite voices on Broadway, along with Douglass Sills
Cam Stang He is good, but listen to Anthony Warlow, his is absolutely mind blowing!
@@patrickphilipbecker2163 The best version of This is the moment is Colm Wilkinson's version. Listen to it.
ruclips.net/video/g600qgavLWU/видео.htmlsi=qnYnN1TTaHa3wD1h
Awesome!
So few people have a the gift to touch others with there gift, that's not the case with Robert he draws you in and you feel the music and the emotion
the Best!
I saw the original cast on Broadway. He was incredible. Alan was amazing too, but with how demanding this role was, I really thought Robert should have won the Tony.
What a doll..
are you serious?!! rob cooch has an AMAZING voice!
SUPERB rendition, by god. One handsome lad. Hard to choose between him and Rob Evan though, in my opinion.
Love his overbite...
Does anyone know where I can find him singing "Confrontation"? I found one where you just hear his voice, but I can't find one where you actually see him sing. Thanks!
Man I love his voice!
WOWWWWW
@theatredrok
I see what you mean about the [a] formation. But I don't think it sounds awkward. Ah well, to each his own.
Amazing .. does anyone have the video of him surprising that girl on Rosie? That was the best.
COLM WILKINSON
Check my version of This Is The Moment and send me a comment? 😃😃
I had always love this song..marry me.
@JohnnyRzezniksGirl I share your exact sentiments.
Technically no. He was the first Broadway Jekyll but there were two concept albums before that plus a Houston run and a national tour before he was known as Jekyll and Hyde. Colm Wilkinson (original Valjean from Les Miserables) is technically the original, followed by Anthony Warlow who many believe sang this song better. However I believe Cuccioli is a better Jekyll.
Hi
Where is he now? Still on Broadway?
Saw him in Spiderman: Turn Off The Dark a month ago. I'm probably going to get axed in the face for this, but singing/vocally wise....Cuccioli > Page.
@jkate457 so did i. i loved it
Thanks for your supports and comments, I'm so much greaetful 🌹🌹💞and I hope you keep on supporting me?
@JohnnyRzezniksGirl that seems like a dangerous game, it would make you have a new life!
Robert Cuccioli was AMAZING in Jekyll & Hyde.....an AWESOME performance. No one could top him. Saw Hasselhoff-->he kept sniffling....yikes.
redundant, forgive me,but I'm impressed
@AtLastOnTheGround
Yes, I am serious...as a vocal performance major and diction TA, I think I know what I am talking about. I am assuming by your response that you have some background in singing so I will use vocal terms as well as IPA, that I assume you understand. His vowels seem strange because he uses to much of an [a] formation. "When all I've done," he actually sings [dan]...one, he sings [wan]...even his test is not right...he mixes the open and closed "e" and makes it sound awkward.
his feet never move
I like this version, but I have to honestly say that Anthony Warlow puts more "OOMPH" into the song.
He's does a great job on this but gotta give the edge to Warlow.
Thanks for your supports and comments, I'm so much greaetful 🌹🌹 and I hope you keep on supporting me?
Does anyone know what key this is?
i have always wondered whether they know how the music touches the fans.....so cool do people like him care about the fame?
2019 anyone?
He was told not to move around because of the show's camera choreography.
@jkate457 He's even hotter when he's Hyde (:
A shame he never did LAW Phantom in Phantom of the Opera. He would’ve been amazing
Sorry....but this sing is OWNED by Anthony Warlow!
If you like this video please also check out, rate, and comment on BRAD ROBINS's version of "This is the Moment" thanks :)
He is good. But no Anthony Warlow :) either way, they are all better than me haha. I love this, Alive Reprise, and Confrontation from this play!
