I DREAMED A DREAM / LES MISERABLES (Lea Salonga live at The Venue)
The Venue, Hammond, Indiana. March 19, 2011. It is such a privilege to watch this performance live. Lea Salonga’s take on Fantine definitely added depth to the character of Victor Hugo’s classic turned Broadway phenomenon Les Miserables. Her interpretation of this song is so complex, it evokes anger, pain, despair, love, nostalgia and misery. Yaiks. When you close your eyes and just listen to the crisp tone of her voice, it sounds like you are transported right at the scene. I have been watching her performance of this song on the Les Miz stage, but even without all the costume and set, her delivery is definitely genius. Having been Marius in a production of this musical in the Philippines, I just fell in love with lea’s voice even more.
And of course “I dreamed a dream” is one of those smash hits of Les Mis which makes Les Mis Les Mis – incredibly! 😉
