    Since I get asked often how this came to be: My friend and colleague Fiona McDougal in London is the official vocal coach for POTO, and when they needed an associate "official coach" in NYC, she called me! I've been so lucky to get to work with the Phantom team since 2018.

    The Final Lair is my favorite song/scene from Phantom! Wishing is a lot easier for me to sing than Think of Me because I connect to it a lot more. I just get too in my head and technical when I try to sing Think of Me, mostly because of the cadenza!

    Hey Chelsea! Is there a “trick” to reaching the big E at the end of Phantom? Any recommendations for stretching up to the note/ singing it in a healthy way? Is the note recorded for every show? Would love to see a video on this.

    To me Sierra Boggess as Christine Daae is like Julie Andrews as Maria VonTrapp...they own those roles.

      Well.......I STILL think Sarah Brightman has the edge,as the music was written specifically for HER voice by her then-husband,Andrew.L.Webber.But-even Webber himself ranked Sierra as the best one since his wife played it.Sadly Sarah's voice has changed over the years-it is not quite as supple as it used to be.When she sang at the 25th Anniversary of "Phantom",it was still amazingly good--yet,I did notice she had lost just a bit of "musicality" in her voice.Age DOES catch up to us all.

    Thank you for this wonderful analysis. I’ve lost track of the number of Phantom of the Opera performances I’ve been to over the years from NY to Toronto, etc. (Including Paul Stanley of Kiss playing Phantom when Toronto closed out the show in late 90’s at the Pantages Theatre). I always thought Sierra during the final part of the song was so much more intense with almost an angry defiant tone in her interpretation compared to Sarah Brightman. Last time I saw on Broadway was Ali Ewoldt as Christine right before pandemic. Different Christine, always fantastic. My favorite song, this one tied with Music of the Night.

    I realize this video is 2 years old already, but I just found it and you! I'm a vocal coach/teacher and accompanist in the NY Metro area, and I have to say you are a delight to watch and very informative. So many of your tips you give in this video alone, I use as well. You also have a beautiful voice yourself! I'll be checking out more of your videos now. You definitely got a new subscriber! BTW, has anyone ever told you, you remind them of Virginia Madsen? 🙂👍🎵🎶

    personally, Music Of The Night is my favorite (I know it's a cliché, but the melody is sooo beautiful and i luuuve the musical irony of it, how it sounds so innocent but then he's seducing her with these sensual lyrics🤣), but yeah Wishing You Were Somehow here Again is sooo underrated. It's definitely Christine's *moment*

    Fascinating reaction and analysis. You really know your stuff and you really know how to convey your thoughts in an engaging and entertaining manner. My request is for you to do a reaction to Lucy Thomas. Her latest release is Unchained Melody but she has done a great many covers and originals in the musical theatre and classical crossover genres as well as the pop and jazz genres.

    I watched her live in 2006 in Vegas. I know the place was constructed for its acoustics but I'm 99% sure that she wasn't mic'd. The way her vibrato echoed through the hall was unreal. Honestly kinda ruined musicals for me lol. Nothing else comes close...

    I don’t like the range in her vibrato. Her technique is impeccable and her acting and she’s perfect and gorgeous BUT… for me personally in my personal opinion (I repeat personal) her vibrato is too pitchy. The range is too broad and it makes a lot of stuff sound just a bit sharp to me. Julie Andrews is always spot on and her vibrato seen on a chart just stops short of both the sharp and flat, I’d be interested to see sierra’s on a chart and I would not be surprised to see the upper range of her vibrato hitting consistently just above the sharp. Otherwise she’s perfect
