Not exactly under thirteen, but lacking time to create a new
02/25/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I stumbled across this CD at Ross for 3.99. Being a complete POTO phan, I obviously bought it.



The biggest thing that bugs me about this recording is... who is the cast????? I would love to learn a name of two about the people that were in this.



As for the songs themselves... In my humble opinion, the overture is simply dreadful. No BOOM, no feeling, no speed, no passion. Although it does provide a gorgeous image of a delapitated chandelier slowly rising above an audience with many rugged pauses along the way. Christine's voice is odd. At times, I love her interpretation, but at others I receive little shudders of "WT-?" through my body.



However, this album deserves four stars if not for the phantom(s?)'s voice itself. I have had the honour of seeing Howard MG, Matt Cammelle, Jon Ian Bourg, and Brad Little perform, in addition to hearing most recordings out in existence. The talented phantom in this CD is most definately ranked in the top five. Emotion. Squee.



For the price that it is offered, I suggest that everyone should try this CD... if not to simply try something new."
