Claude-Michel Schönberg on Les Misérables 

In my oppinion, Les Misérables is the best musical of all time. No other musical combines fantastic and varied music with a great story. Timeless masterpiece.

Merci et bravo 👏🏻

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil on Les Misérables many times. An incredible genius and gentleman.

This a wonderful conversation. Julia Zemiro was the perfect person to speak with Claude-Michel and he was clearly comfortable and enjoyed be there as much as all in attendance. Thanks to the State Library of Victoria and all concerned for this and the upload. - Craig Renshaw

What an AWESOME combination! Julia Zemiro is a great host with such great energy and of course, wonderful stories from Mr Claude-Michel Schonberg. Really enjoyed this-- thanks for sharing!!

What a legend! Years ago, you could hear “Do you hear people sing” in Cantonese in Central, Hong Kong.

Quel compositeur de génie ! Avoir écrit une musique si épique si vibrante de tous les sentiments humains avec un sujet aussi rébarbatif que la manie consternante de Révolution Française.... Tout le monde garde en soi le souvenir de ces incroyables mélodies. Qu'on soit allemand turc suisse anglais ou japonais, ces mélodies sont "cultes" dans toute la planète. Les droits d'auteur doivent être colossaux puisque la comédie musicale parcourt le monde depuis 40 ans.

the lady is full of life.

Brilliant and stellar composer, C.M. Schönberg!

Good interview!

27:10 Wow, what a surprise. Claude-Michel Schonberg can't read music. I wonder how he works when he is composing. Very interesting and surprising. Also surprised that Pavarotti couldn't read music either.

How is it that this brilliant man only has one Tony?
