5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding!, 26 May 2007

By	Fiona Jephson (Bedfordshire, UK) - See all my reviews

I recently bought the DVD as my videos of both this and Stage By Stage are getting rather old now. I readily confess to being a bit of a Miz fanatic, also owning two French versions on CD as well as the Complete Symphonic Recording (on cassette - could do with updating to CD!) and having seen the production some years ago in Manchester.

This anniversary concert (10 and a half years old already!) brings together some of the finest performers, a wonderful orchestra and huge choir in an atmospheric, emotionally-charged performance. I agree with others that, whilst Colm Wilkinson is the Jean Valjean, his perfomance here is maybe not quite his finest but all the emotion is there. Michael Ball slips easily back into the role that first brought him to prominence. Alun Armstrong and Jenny Galloway bring the house down as the vile, but comedic, Thenardiers. Ruthie Henshall plays Fantine well, though not sure if she's my favourite in the role, whilst Lea Salonga is well-suited as the feisty Eponine - she and Michael Ball sing A Little Fall of Rain beautifully.

Highest praise though must go to Philip Quast as Javert, a role he has truly made his own. His two main pieces - Stars and Javert's Soliloquy - are outstanding. He has such a rich and beautiful voice that moves me every time I listen to/watch this. (18/7/07 - have just found my theatre programme and it turns out Philip was playing Javert when I saw it back in 1992. As I had already had the Complete Symphonic recording for about 3 years by that point, I must have appreciated seeing/hearing him live, but can't quite recall it now 15 years on!)

My only criticism of the DVD is that it skips out the speeches, which precede the encore of the 17 Valjeans, and the final encore of One Day More. So for that reason I shall be keeping hold of my original VHS version.

It's not quite the complete show, but it is a superbly-staged performance of one of the best-loved musicals in the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate cast and the DVD comes close too..., 25 Dec 2004

By	Mr. M. E. Merritt "MattMerritt" (Portsmouth UK.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

For anyone who loves Les Miserables, anyone who loves their musicals and indeed for anyone with a fond appreciation of good music performed by real talent, this is a fantastic DVD. The concert recording is a fantastic, once-in-a-lifetime cast performing the show pretty much in its entirity and making every song ad every character really stand out.

The accompanying documentary is also a superb feature for fans of the show or for anyone who wonders what goes into putting together such a huge production.

All in all a fantastic package that I can only hope will inspire future musical theatre releases!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Showing, 12 Jan 2006

By	Michael Helm - See all my reviews

Great cast and great music, its a shame that this was in concert and not a performance however it does say this on the dvd.
The end with dozens of leading characters from around the world is excellent.
Definately an enjoyable watch!
