    People said that Sierra had a cold when she sang this song and that´s why she breaths so loud sometimes. I have to say that those strong inhales made the music even more dramatic and more powerful somehow.

      @gabrieleperine2124 Před 2 lety +442

      She actually does those kind of breaths in all of her performances as far as I can tell. It definitely adds the the drama of it. I think it is intentional.

      It is intentionally a narrow breath like that because of the kind of microphones they are wearing, which is very sensitive and near the singer's mouth. If their breath is too wide it adds extra noise to the performance so they train it to be "quieter".

      Yeah I agree that it is probably pre-recorded. Even with mics and not having to stress and belt your voice like operas singers in the pre-modern age, hitting those notes night after night at that length is going to wreck a lot of people's voices.
      There are some clues on it being pre-recorded: It's the only segment in the video where Sierra isn't synced with what is being said, both at the beginning and at the end. The sound quality is also much clearer and less raspy.

    • @AhsokaJackson
      @AhsokaJackson Před 5 lety +105

      I know! That’s one of my absolute favorite things about how he plays the role. And it really suits the character so well: Erik is a musician, mason, magician, mechanic/inventor, master pickpocket & thief, extremely skilled and lightning-fast killer, and also good at providing medical care as needed. What’s more, he also seems to have a soft spot for children and animals and shows the necessary gentleness and care with them. Tenderness, really! For all the power and violence he’s capable of, he can also be super delicate and restrained in his movements and has a lot of flair and elegance.
      In fact, besides the bits and pieces of this throughout, there was a specific passage in Susan Kay’s novel that talked about how mesmerizing and seductive his hands are in how he moves and employs them.
      There’s also supposed to be a general sense of rhythm and musicality in how he moves overall.
      I couldn’t help wondering if Ramin had actually read the book, because both his gestures and the general fluidity and smoothness he sometimes uses in moving around really suit the role of the Phantom so well!
      I sometimes think it looks like he’s constantly conducting the world around him and/or an unheard melody. :-p

      Are you sure it's a corset? I feel like that would make singing anything, especially something of this caliber basically impossible. Maybe the bodice is just boned?
      EDIT: I asked my voice teacher and she actually said wearing a corset, as long as it's not too restrictive can actually improve your breath control! I stand corrected internet. Also, I saw a video where they showed the costume, and she is wearing a corsette!

      Ramin has gotten more and more touchy as Phantom over the years. At least when he's with Sierra. Here it was just the hand touch and the near-stroking of her face. But at the Bway Anniversary, he was making actual contact and stroking her face a lot and I heard he did it when they were singing in Japan and doing this song together during 4 stars, that he was doing the same thing. I don't know how I feel about that transformation, tbh.

    Not only are they both so good at singing, but they’re also so good at pretending like they aren’t loving every note the other sings

    Okay the fact that she's able to sustain a full vibrato on the E6... lots of other Christine's just straight tone it lol

      The E6 was actually prerecorded by Sierra before this performance, you will notice how she turns her back briefly and then turns back, to cover that the E6 note is not live. Not that there's anything wrong with that; most Christines do the same, due to the huge strain of the E6 on the voice.
