Hugh Panaro sings "Music of the Night" from The Phantom of the Opera

[@chiffon916]

He is the most awesome Phantom ever. You really have to hear him perform this at the Majestic. His Point of No Return gives me chills every time I hear him sing it. His voice is so beautiful.

[@vickyc8683]

Hugh Panaro is so handsome! Very charming voice. I saw him in The Phantom of the Opera in Broadway. Had a blast !

[@vivnoname]

I have been to see Phantom three times and his voice is just spine chilling. I could listen to him all day. It actually makes me go weak at the knees.

[@juliacleary21]

i'm gonna be honest. with most phantoms you can recognize them with or without phantom makeup. but hugh, i almost didnt believe thats how he looks without makeup. he looks COMPLETELY different with and without

[@JeffsGirlXxX]

Each phantom has their own unique voice. I know in the book, it said that he had a dark quality to his voice, but his voice is supposed to light and angelic as well.

[@sunnydale22]

I just saw him two weeks ago, a Thursday night show, and was completely blown AWAY. Hugh is a flawless phantom- to say he nails his every performance is an understatement. I need my entire family to see him as Phantom when we get to go to NYC together!

[@chemical2romance]

He just came and preformed at my college! OH MY GOSH! He is an amazing singer. I was completely speechless afterward.

[@TheValentinaD]

Mr. Panaro has a wonderful voice, a great technique and a very big heart! Every time he is exactly the character he is playing in every tones... He is the perfect singer!

[@ThesKapegoat]

Actually, I recently went to see Phantom on Broadway on November 6th. This recording REALLY does him no justice. He was absolutely fantastic. Still one of the best to play Phantom, at least in my opinion.

[@crheemstra]

Hugh Panaro is absolutely fabulous. We met him backstage when we saw the show. My son was going to be Phantom in his high school production. He was so kind and generous. I am a fan!

[@OperaGhostHP]

Such a great range. His voice has a higher range than any other Phantom I've heard... LOVE IT.

[@MrOldlyme]

beautiful voice, now we know he really sings like an angel. the play is recorded. Adorable Hugh with those sunglasses. Like your outfit.

[@taebae88]

I saw him on our school trip to New York. Well worth the eight hour ride and money spent.

[@Aquailan]

I would sell my soul to become this man's Christine. I saw him almost a year ago and I'm still madly obsessed. To me, he is the only Phantom.

[@carinaargento5140]

hugh & ramin… for me the two most beautiful phantom voices… but i must say that hugh manages more to bring the soft crazyness into the vocals ❤

[@xpa-beads501]

i would sell my soul to see him live

[@janesnider3731]

A special man, soul deep, heart large, voice of an angel.... thank you for sharing your talent. :)

[@TheLotharx]

I am envious of his voice more than anyone else in the world. If I could have anyone's voice, it would be his. I was in New York a few days ago and I had to go see Phantom. I was really skeptical before, but then I saw it, and it was great, and Hugh's voice was easily the best part of it. Wish I could see it again.

[@keelieak]

No disrespect to the beautiful Norm Lewis, but I'm having trouble getting over this man. I wish he could have stayed in the role indefinitely. To me, he IS the phantom. Never a better fit since Michael Crawford.

[@Rachel-xf1yc]

yup

[@broadwaygeek100]

i just love him... hes just... i cant explain it its just... breathtaking... he sings like an angel... he's the only reason for life...

[@lilyrose2076]

I saw him preform as the Phantom last night and I couldn't stop shaking. That voice is... How... The amount of control he has is ridiculous and his voice beautiful, only word for it.

[@lolaflores2749]

The most gorgeous phantom, I love you Hugh. And what a cautivating voice! I Would definitely fall just with the voice!

[@katie12998]

holy crap....his range is phantastic!!!

[@teddykuh6962]

I saw his phantom 2 days ago... Amazingly touching

[@PhantomMan400]

I met Hugh Panaro right after his show one night in 2012, and he was an incredible person.

[@lana6969ful]

What a amazing preformance out in the park... He was great!!!!

[@TildaRigo]

he is definitely the best.... i saw him on broadway this summer... i was simply amazed by the range of his voice, his skill to act and sing so perfectly and subtly. he has such an amazing voice and spirit on stage!!!! run to see him at the majestic :))) thank you for sharing this video..

[@fatheqbraeuwn]

Battled his glasses the whole time, and still gave a killer performance. Props to him.

[@janiebug14]

I feel so lucky I got to see him sing this on Broadway! Love you Hugh!

[@williamweimian]

LOVE his phantom

[@musicnessme]

HUGE IS MY PHANTOM!!!! -3 I came away from this show speechless. His voice is perfect!! He's terrific.

[@Paige7Taryn]

Saw him on Broadway in NYC on April 26th 2012, this voice is perfection and falsettos are breathtaking!!

[@obiphil8672]

Beautiful vocals!!!

[@thedustwhispered]

I saw it yesterday; I loved his take on the Phantom! And his voice was lovely. :)

[@flyersphan94]

I saw him on the 27th...just absolutely brilliant. I wish I could see him one more time before his contract ends.

[@Actorentrianing]

I get to see him just before he leaves. I'm so excited to see this show!

[@gz08002]

Absolutely fabulous! As always! Saw Hugh perform live at the 25th Anniversary performance of POTO on January 26, 2013. Blew my hair back, baby. We're going back in 2 weeks!!

[@vivnoname]

Intoxicating voice. ❤️

[@relaks4]

Really incredible delivery and performance. One of the all-time greatest Phantoms! What a wonderful day this was.

[@kylerutherford2896]

im seeing this for very first time in new york in march i hope hugh panaro there when i see it

[@antoniskoroneos]

Really impressed...I was lucky to be at New York last March and I saw the performance...You are all great,especially bravo to Mr.Panaro who was there...I feel really blessed...Bravi a tutti!!!

[@icesk8mike]

I saw him I fell in love

[@lemoniegal2973]

i saw hugh panaro earlier in march!!! he is amazing and i won't hesitate to take a 30 hrs flight to nyc to see him as phantom again... omg... i am soo mesmerized by him...

[@KatieT97]

I LOVE HUGH!!! He's my second favorite phantom (just behind Ramin) but Hugh's amazing too!❤️❤️

[@musicalmeg19]

AHHH! I can't believe this! Just saw him a couple weeks ago for the second time in Phantom (first time was in early 2005) when I was in New York. He's just brilliant! I so wish I could've been there for this!

[@ezactsly]

Ridiculously AMAZING singer.

[@TheGwilwileth]

According to Playbill, Hugh will have his last show as Phantom on April 29th. However Hugh will return to the role Aug 26th. Was depressed when I thought he was leaving for good.... He is such a great Phantom and I adore him!

[@graceh201]

I JUST saw saw the Phantom of the Opera today, and while its the only on-Broadway show I've seen, it was amazing, especially the last three numbers. Hugh is an amazing Phantom

[@kmasucci]

The first Phantom I saw on Broadway!

[@teebyrd183]

Beautiful...

[@minnavalance6669]

Amazing!!!! Saw him live in New York. Phenomenal Voice!!!

[@aleksandraewa6336]

AMAIZING! FABULOUS! GORGEOUS! GREAT TALENT AND BEAUTIFUL VOICE!

[@WickedSmileyify]

Saw him in Phantom recently--fantastic. He deserves to be the Phantom for the 25th anniversary Broadway performance.

[@marilynp1507]

Hugh is my favorite. Have seen him Twice .

[@neko-tama8705]

i saw the play on my ECT trip it was awesome i loved the whole play such talented people and a great play!

[@DynaVlog]

I saw his penultimate show (with a particular company) on Saturday. Absolutely fantastic.

[@chaneldial8927]

wow i love him he sounds so soothing and not so powerful he sings so beautiful

[@bigredpoodles]

I bow down to your mastery of sunglasses

[@relaks4]

Love this. He's so talented!

[@USFanLovesMinHo]

Saw Hugh Dec 2011. Although he is not my favorite Phantom, I loved the show and he was wonderful.

[@kaylaclarkyall]

Hugh Panaro is an Amazing stage actor and singer I Loved him in the ~{Lestat}~ Musical

[@AmethystLeslie]

I saw him a couple weeks ago. AWESOME!

[@millekristensen1197]

Saw him as the Phantom last October, when I came to new York for the holiday. He was AMAZING. Oh, and it's his birthday today!

[@ActorsWithIssuespodcast]

Saw him last night. He was phenomenal.

[@proseafighter]

OMG he is the best

[@Fullmetal1890P]

I saw him in April and am not over my love~

[@InsanityIca]

He may not be my favorite Phantom, but his rendition of Music of the Night is brilliant! Respect of Panaro, please.

[@BlueInu9234]

Dear god this made me cry

[@DarkwingsDesending]

Amazing as always. I loved him in Lestat where I first heard of him. When I found out he was the Phantom....I freaked. Bring in Drew Sarich too and that would be epic.

[@ArmandoRuben]

I was bummed when John Cudia left, because I wanted to see him, but I live in LA. and its tuff getting to NY. when I saw that Hugh Panaro took the role.. I knew its in more than good hands. :)

[@ChantalMary5256]

Going to see him. In 2 weeks

[@princepeterwolf]

Hugh just seems so cool

[@handrionurhan]

Saw him a few days ago!

[@cabella8]

@cutypie12 At present, Hugh is committed to Phantom through December 3, 2011.

[@teeniebeenie8774]

loooooooooooooove that voice/face/ev thing.

[@teeniebeenie8774]

awesome voice awesome nips yums

[@Pochiko2008]

@LunaAumento LMFAO, dying with the "pointing towards the heavens" part XD

[@chaneldial8927]

be my phantom

[@arianalamark9891]

Same Hugh is life

[@hugoarr12]

Sheesh, this is excellent.

[@toridrew9534]

He's ten times better on Broadway. I saw the movie (2004 version) first, which got me hooked on the Phantom. Later, I saw him perform on Broadway in the Phantom of the Opera, and it was something I could never get over. His voice was just stunning! Perfect! I have searched every Phantom and I think Ramin is incredibly but his voice can't compare to this! Ramin mastered the emotions the Phantom needs while Hugh has the voice! Either way, both are amazing!

[@Paula74]

Peter Joback, the Swedish actor who played the role in London last year.

[@grnday11700]

Does he flub the last line a little, and say "the music of the ni... night?" I honestly can't tell if that's just an extension of "the" or him starting to sing the final word. So glad I was there for this performance though.

[@conricks246]

hugh panaro, colm wilkinson and of course michael crawford are my fav phantoms

[@Jjustin727]

Seen the phantom in new York 3 days ago :)

[@AmethystLeslie]

@truepixartronphan Well, the show, and I loved him as the Phantom.

[@EuAildur]

He is still playing the phantom

[@aidarulesthud]

i can reconize his voice anywhere. if he sings i would follow.

[@HikariDragonRyuu]

DID YOU JUST CALL JOHN OWEN JONES A BASS? OH MY GOD. I CAN'T BREATHE.

[@Kewlausgirl]

OK guys... From Australia, going to New York for 4 nights. Must see Phantom while I'm there. This guy sounds awesome! We had Anthony Warlow (and while nothing now can beat him) I reckon this guy has just won my decision to go see phantom on broadway! So... try to respond in an awesome way, take than fan girlism away and let me know... compared to Michael Crawford... (this guy does sing a lot like him... love that) and others... is the expensive broadway worth it? It's this or Lion King. xD

[@musicismylife1233]

actually JOJ has a tone of a Baritone singer and is classed mostly as a baritone singer with the capabilities of a tenor range. he just has a massive range so I can see why people class him bass

[@brightcolorsandboldpattern136]

I hear he is amazing in Sweeney Todd! Really need to see him!

[@JaredGoerke]

Look on the bright side he will be back!

[@gaspo35]

So idk what youre talking about. If you look on playbill.com at the breakdown of characters for the show in their auditions section it clearly says that the Phantom is a High Baritone or tenor (with good low range). This is from the casting director of the bway production and "bass" is nowhere mentioned

[@WarriorsBiggestFan2]

Too amazing. This made me prego...*o*

[@hiskidkeller]

Damn. 'Nuff said.

[@ScenemoSweetie]

I so wish that I could see him as the Phantom, but I live in England :/ I just have to make do with videos and audios.

[@musicnessme]

***HUGH*** -333

[@grnday11700]

@LunaAumento I just died a little bit. So much win in that statement.

[@JaredGoerke]

Umm no i looked at the sheet music after reading this is meant for a tenor 1 to a baritone range.

[@IIAmHorseLover]

@flyersphan94 WHEN DOES HIS CONTRACT END?????? OH NO :(
