the switch from the legit baritone to the full pop tenor literally has me quaking

[@Crazyconvosaccount]

beavertales12 now this is what I call RANGE dang!

[@flame246848]

Just to clarify he never actually sang as a baritone, because he isn't a baritone. He sang as a tenor each time, he just switched from classical to a more pop style. But all three times he sang as a tenor

[@th0mas-Sm1th]

You can never beat a good high bari!!

[@dddeines1]

Velvet voice!!! Such a powerful instrument with a wide range. Nice!

[@oc5939]

His range, tone and control are insane. 💖

[@morganlouiseramsey]

When he started singing the Billy Joel song, I literally had to watch the whole video again to make sure it was the same person. WOW!!!!

[@jokina6717]

Phantom of the Opera was my first Broadway show and I saw him! He was absolutely amazing!

[@rico4141]

Same here, it was amazing.

[@abbyw9365]

It was mine as well! Ben was amazing 😊😊

[@shaynabarkan3940]

It was the first time I saw phantom, that he played phantom, and it was so majocal

[@angelabutz]

Amazing voice, goosebumps when he sings

[@adrianad375]

This guy has one of the most consistent voices I've heard in this whole series. Such a beautiful voice, and so on point and obviously very well trained

[@ashliecamarena9791]

OMG THAT BILLY JOEL LITERALLY MADE MY JAW DROP. NOW THATS WHAT I CALL TALENT

[@ZoraTheberge]

Oof this is old. He’s been at Phantom for a minute.

[@Gentile108]

Thanks for your opinion update… but I could listen to him all day long. That is a talented man

[@mollypavilonis5718]

He sounds like THREE DIFFERENT PEOPLE. Absolutely insane!

[@RijackiTorment]

Incredible voice!

[@emmaluciamurphy5800]

Love Ben Crawford’s voice!! And Robert Frost is one of the best musicians I’ve ever had the pleasure to sing with!!

[@Melissa-tw2gp]

Killer vibrato. Gorgeous.

[@angieakeroyd9077]

Ben Crawford has a Great voice.

[@cherylhowe1541]

Great musical theater voice.

[@paulamusik2509]

Loved Proud Lady! But in general great and impressive choices and performances!

[@Eriknorcal]

Great voice and nice song choices! Glad you picked "The Highest Judge" and not "Soliloquy" from CAROUSEL and, like you, love THE BAKER'S WIFE.

[@saranotsarah]

he sounds amazing!

[@elizabethlaurence19]

[@emilytolman46]

Bravo!!!! The last one is my favorite!

[@alexandervue9464]

Damn he got range

[@isaacgreenland9083]

He is sooo good, can he do all the shows?

[@teresesanchez4138]

Yes!! I need to see him as Billy Bigelow like yesterday!!

[@ivonneornelas5128]

Amazing

[@watermelonpie.]

I love Ben. That's all I have to say.

[@jacksont79]

That was THE Robert Frost playing the piano?? Crazy!

[@JG.Artistry]

yes

[@timothy3848]

This video made me speech less

[@margicates553]

TONE 😍

[@annmarieknapp]

Saw him in Phantom of the Opera in December 2019 so this must be an older video.

[@brotherluthor6400]

Loved Proud Lady so much! However I'm so confused as none of the other versions of this song have these lyrics and this ending, it's a shame because this is too funny!! Does anyone know why???

[@Lighthouse__]

It's his own cut of the song to fit into 2 minutes for auditions. There is a version of the song with the same lyrics that he used but it's a cover and it has some parts sung differently and an ending from the actual show and not what ben used here.

[@voxextremos22]

He needs to play The Beast or Gaston

[@ladisneyprincesse]

He’s already The Beast at The Muny!

[@bubba85748]

He is my uncle

[@walterwhite4862]

Is he really

[@michael5876]

Wait seriously??

[@oliver91ist]

Everyone loves The Baker’s Wife but it shall never work, it suffers from padding that makes a easy plot dull and yet the score is the complete opposite strange isn’t it

[@stephenvalentinemusi]

....Then someone get someone else to edit it. Preferably someone who works on straight plays. Or someone like Winnie Holzman.
