Andrew Lloyd Webber: birthday In 1980 the name of Andrew Lloyd Webber icinema3satu in the advertisement is no longer needed. He has already had a brilliant rock opera "Jesus Christ Superstar" (1970), the musical "Evita" on the wife of Argentine dictator Eve Perron (1976) and the musical "Cats" (1980) based on poems by TS Elliot (last masquerade will respond in Soviet musical "Mamma"). It would seem that more and can not achieve. But the composer still waiting for one of the biggest breakthroughs in the history of musical theater. His name is "Phantom of the Opera (The Phantom of the Opera). I must say, that is neither a big fan of musicals, not a connoisseur of classical icinema3satu opera. But I always trusted talent Webber. And it is the "Phantom of the Opera" was attracted to me in private that allowed with interest look behind the scenes of these two great genres. Angel of Music A N D R E and F and p m e n: He wants to re-singer in our troupe join, And the girl - get out! Since it sleeps its socket. Raul and this month In entwined love duet. (Per. A. Butuzova) The reason that forced Webber to put on the stage of history disfigured musical genius, in love with a young unknown singer was more than personal. It all started when the famed composer met in life young Sarah Brightman. Sarah from childhood was a talented girl, but parents initially predicted her ballet career, and only 12 years noticed her beautiful voice. However, icinema3satu the selection of the troupe Royal Theater is not passed icinema3satu and a time to dance in the girls' group PAN'S PEOPLE, making it also removed for Vogue magazine and cosmetics company Biba. In 1980 Sarah first enters the world of Webber playing in the production of "Cats" secondary role of one of the cats. When in 1982 it was a great success acting strange musical "Nightingale," Webber suddenly notice how charming and talented singer was under his very nose. The high soprano icinema3satu and pleasant appearance were rattlesnakes To the mixture, which has forced the elderly composer blindly fall in love with Sarah. And Sarah and Andrew at the time both were not free. So when the composer wanted icinema3satu to Sarah performed at festivals held them in his song Sidmontone Married Man - A married man" reasonably friends dissuaded him from this risky behavior. icinema3satu Subsequently icinema3satu tune "married man" will become one of the most famous songs "Ghost ..." - aria "Music of the Night", "exacerbates the feeling all night ... darkness wakes imagination ... The feeling quietly cancel all barrings. Night quiet arise inevitably. Postavsya her kind and gentle! Thoughts From utai daylight and from cold and indifferent candles and listen to this music in the night! .. "(Per. A. Butuzova) but scandalous gossip did not stop and after lovers broke their marriage and married in March 1984 Most of the" arrows "is definitely focused on Sarah - say, ohmuryty veteran composer to become famous, he pushes it everywhere and her voice is very, etc., etc. Webber did not care, and he really struggled to create something special voice of Sarai. It was written for her "Requiem", dedicated to the victims of Anglo-Irish conflict. But the composer wanted something wider to his young wife shone on the big stage. And the idea comer like myself. Book must immediately be noted that although the phrase "Phantom of the Opera" (hereinafter - SW) today inevitably icinema3satu refers to Webber musical, icinema3satu then it was known in other incarnations. Original book has always been a French icinema3satu writer Gaston Leroux, until released in 1910 and repeatedly filmed. In 1984, on the same story by Ken Hill decided to put the show in which to used music of classical composers, and a central role played by Sarah Brightman. By the Hill here pidkotyv Webber with a proposal to become co-play and add their music. Hill Gradually it became clear that co pulls the blanket to his side, and Webber - Hill that he, in general, and not needed. His ideas put "Ghost" Andrew shared with producer icinema3satu Cameron Mackintosh (who previously produced "Cats"). He recalled that it was taking a bath when Webber called and that even the composer unto it "proprietary Roach," he would still answer "yes." First, Webber and Mackintosh wanted to keep the original idea - to build a musical icinema3satu on different classical icinema3satu opera arias interspersed with small own material. And even announced in preview in 1984 that "musical" PA "will include both existing and original music." But in the end, they met director Jim Sharman, icinema3satu who once set in London "Jesus Christ Superstar". icinema3satu Webber suggested Sharman become director
