Ramin Karimloo and Colm Wilkinson duet - "Bring Him Home"

London and Broadway's original Jean Valjean, Colm Wilkinson, performed the role of the Bishop for a special performance of LES MISÉRABLES Saturday evening, January 11 in Toronto at the Princess of Wales Theatre alongside Broadway's next Valjean, Ramin Karimloo, who will star in Cameron Mackintosh's new production of the legendary musical beginning March 1 at the Imperial Theatre. Wilkinson passed the torch -- and the silver candlesticks - to Karimloo in a special benefit performance for five different Toronto charities: Casey House, Covenant House, Ernestine's, The Franciscan Missionary Sisters for Africa and Theatre 20. Wilkinson and Karimloo brought down the house with a special curtain call duet of "Bring Him Home."

Loved it when Ramin just stepped back into the line to let Colm sing the final note. Pure class.

[@brooklynbuglet]

I nearly cried when that happened

[@mathewoconnor1319]

That note is a tough one to sing. He probably didn't want to do it again.

@@mathewoconnor1319 it is but Colm is so good

[@lisaandothers]

Ramin is always respectful to the original actors. I teared up watching him sing "You alone can make my song take flight" facing Michael Crawford at the POTO anniversary show

[@LuchoVice]

I definitely feel Valjean is forever Colms role. And Ramin killed as Phantom, not even Colm can take that away from him. Both incredible performers this is such a beautiful rare piece.

[@robertabarbaro5231]

+Luis Becerra You are absolutely right!!!!!

[@saschahoupt6177]

What’s amazing is that apparently, Colm Wilkinson’s performance as the phantom is what inspired Ramin to become an actor in the first place.

[@neuralmute]

Fun trivia time - ALW was originally writing the role of The Phantom with Colm Wilkinson in mind, but then Colm took the role of Jean Valjean in the London production of Les Miserables, which was the first English language production of that show. "Bring Him Home" wasn't in the original French version; it was written specifically to take advantage of Colm's incredible high range. Colm Wilkinson DID go on to play The Phantom in the Toronto production, along with Rebecca Caine, who had played Cosette in London, as Christine. And an adolescent boy from Toronto named Ramin Karimloo went to see that show god knows how many times, and decided that he was going to be in musicals one day too.

[@kateb1761]

I legit cant listen to anyone else's voice as Phantom. It's Ramin or noone for me

[@itsharibonph]

@@kateb1761 Ramin is my inspiration for my approach with Phantom and Colm for my approach of Valjean. there were many moments I hit the notes Colm hit and I get so shocked because I never thought I can do it.

[@dunetiger]

I was sitting in the balcony crying like a bitch the whole time. Believe me, not everyone there was dense. Perhaps the guy who showed up in tattered jeans and running shoes.

[@ThomasJM]

Elizabeth Johnston I actually got too see both of them in various versions of les miserable perform the role of Veljean. I also got to see Colm Wilkinson as the phantom of the opera. But my jean Veljean will always be Michel Burgess

[@ObligatoryPun]

"crying like a bitch" Sounds like something the guy in tattered jeans and trainers would say. Douchebag.

[@lauragreen7694]

This brought me to tears. Ramin is pure class bowing out to let Colm have the spotlight. He also gave special acknowledgment and a bow of thanks to Michael Crawford at the Phantom 25th concert. Someday someone will be bowing to him.

[@KayyyRae]

totally agree

[@mackenna9649]

+Laura Green 100% agree! Ramin is so humble!

[@Clotho42]

Utterly agree. met him twice, he's a beautiful, talented, humble, patient man. he would spend half an hour or more signing after finishing shows. I'm honoured to have met him and seen him. He is my Phantom, and one of my top Valjeans.

[@aiyagilliam9930]

I read somewhere that Colm Wilkinson was Ramin's inspiration; like Ramin watched the Phantom of the Opera when he was 12 starring Colm, and decided that he wanted to go into musical theater and play the Phantom someday... and so this is just beautiful.

[@stepht7234]

Yes, that is true.

[@at1212b]

Ramin skipped school multiple times for go watch Colm by taking the bus from quite afar like 8x. Colm actually gave Ramin advice who was waiting outside after each show to join a rock group to get better versatility. Ramin listened and the rest is history.

It was just a matter of time before he was respected. He's been respected by his peers for longer than what was 6 years ago when he first really became a star. Now, he's known by everyone in the musical theater world.

It is so magical when Ramin steps back in respect to the master. Colm allowed Ramin’s “song to take flight” by inspiring him into theatre and Ramin returns the favour. Just beautiful. What I would give to see either of these two live, in anything!

As always, Colm Wilkinson is magnificent.

[@larissaprates1384]

That moment. Right there. Colm saying all those beautiful things about Ramin and the only thought that came to my mind was the story Ramin tells about the moment he knew he wanted to be a performer, which was watching Colm as the Phantom. It feels full circle and just brought so many tears to my eyes

[@joserr18]

Never thought colms voice sounded sooo young.

[@rubycatherinestevens8024]

You are quite right. Some singers lose the clarity and power of their voice as they grow older, particular as they enter their 70s, so their voice is only a shadow. However, Colm's voice hasn't lost any of its power and quality.

[@neuralmute]

Part of that is a natural gift, and part is that he takes exquisite care of his voice. He won't even eat spicy foods, drink coffee or alcohol, or be in a room with secondhand smoke. Colm Wilkinson is a truly dedicated artist, protecting his art.

Many amazing things about this performance… the thing that amazes me the most is the fact Ramin sounds like this RIGHT AFTER finishing a full Valjean performance. 3 hours of full on sending it and still have enough in the tank for this. Wild.

[@WTHFX]

Ramin has a younger man's power and control, but Colm's voice has a depth and richness that cannot be imitated. The one thing that I feel Colm has over any other performer in both Les Mis and Phantom is his ability to convey the psychological truth of the moment in any given scene. Some people think that the choices Colm makes are too broad, but personally, musical theatre is supposed to be heightened to the threshold of credibility, to play the emotional truth of each moment and no one has ever done it so well. With all due respect to Ramin, Colm is Val Jean, and (with respect to Crawford and Ramin) he is the Phantom.

[@baileybieganek2446]

They're just both so wonderful! I adore Ramin and saw him live as Jean valjean, so I'm a little biased towards him, but Colm was the first valjean I ever loved!

Colm Wilkinson always seems so modest, humble and appreciative when he sings and when the audience applauds. It's clear he appreciate the audience and doesn't take his fans for granted. Nice change from many of the egotistical celebrities out there! Ramin is an excellent Valjean but one thing I don't like about his make-up/costume is that it hides his normal adorable self. The make-up is so good, it's hard to tell he's Ramin.

I yelled at the computer when I heard the clapping over him singing the final note! Arrgghh! It's just rude.

[@moeppps]

I just want to hug the guy in the back who´s about to cry and share the feels with him.

[@wengfong6742]

Colm is just brilliant! The original valjean! He set the standard for all valjeans to come.

[@ChristineScorey-c9b]

[@cicilia321]

Ikr! I love that part of the song.

[@VIsionsOfJenna]

I don't think he really needed that [oe] on "soon", would have liked an [u]. But I'm not a tenor and Ramin doesn't need advice from me.

[@BetteDavis19]

@@VIsionsOfJenna out of curiosity, what are the pronunciation difference between oe and u? :)

[@tastacherry5817]

Bravo beautiful song. Performed by two greats. Doesn't get any better.
