Andrew Lloyd Webber... — Page 3

For thos who do not like Webber because of his "pop" musical theatre songs, listen to "Song and Dance" and "Aspects of Love." Those two have the most "sondheim" sound to them.

I'll suggest you audition "Music of the Night". =-D

>Christine's high note at the end of the title song is indeed pre-recorded, as is much of that song due to technical requirements. The reason is that, for a lot of the song, it's not the actual actors onstage but body doubles. Not sure about Christine, but I understand there are up to 2 extra "Phantoms" used during the first half of it.>

Yes, Phantom and Christine come out 3-4 times in the title song. The first 2 times aren't really them(they go down stairs, they go up stairs...)
I always thought that it was just the Christines high notes that were pre-recorded but I got yelled at a number of times by people on this bored that say the whole song is recorded. =-/

I would hardly call "Aspects of Love" like Sondheim (although I do moderately-like [or at least don't mind] AoL). Other than the minimalist instrumentation, they're pretty different.

Try the Vaults of Heaven!

The Vocal Selections book for WHISTLE is very avalable and very worth having for all the songs.
