Quite a powerful rendition! I think SJB would have been (I think she's past this role...?) a memorable Fantine.

Posted: 2/3/13 at 12:32amI actually thought it was a mess. It's a beautiful song. It doesn't need any extra dynamics.
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Posted: 2/3/13 at 9:52pmI love SJB, but I'd really like some softer moments in her voice and a song like this would have been a perfect opportunity to find that softness.
