Jon Robyns knows his vocal ranges and uses them -well-. He's got the experience! If you ever get to see him live, you can see how much work he puts into his character. Jon himself is the most sweetest person I have ever met at stage door.
Jon Robyns is phenomenal, one of the best Phantoms I've seen in yesrs and his final lair just blows you away in person. Absolute emotional rollercoaster 🖤
Whereas the original production used the original 27-piece orchestration, the 2021 revival now only uses the 2011 tour orchestration with 14 instruments. Among other things, there are only 3 instead of 7 violins, the harp, timpani and the former 2 trumpets are completely missing and have been replaced by keyboard files.
@@peteraschaffenburg1 yep it's sad! there's been some shocking orchestra reductions for uk tours, the Disney's Aladdin tour has a reduced orchestra of 8 compared to its original 24?? piece orchestra
@@the_b737guy7 Not to mention the massive rushing from the pre recorded tracks... way faster than it's supposed to be. Actors are struggling to keep up.
The orchestra doesn't sound as grand and also, why's it feel so rushed?? Or maybe I'm just used to the 25th Albert Hall production.Which production is this?
It's because london cut the orchestra form 27 instuments to 14, leaving the other half to be pre recorded. The pre recorded tracking is super rushed, the actors seem like they are struggling to keep up,
