Response to Andrew Lloyd Webber Playing on IGTV

[@larryswaim5012]

I think Sir Andrew would be pleased to accompany you, young lady. "All I Ask Of You" is a beautiful piece and even though you were joking around to begin with, it was quickly apparent your voice is no joke! Love the quality. Let's hear more, Courtney. Subscribed. 😊

[@CourtneyLucien]

Larry, thank you!! What a kind response. I look forward to making more fun videos for people like you!

@@CourtneyLucien It would seem that you are surely classically-trained, and I would guess you are no stranger to a stage. If you've appeared on Broadway and at the Met, my apology - the old guy doesn't get around much. :-) If you haven't trod those stages - maybe you should. Do you take requests? At Sir Andrew's 50th birthday bash at Sir Albert Hall, Kiri Te Kanawa sang what was thought to be a song from the next Phantom play or movie - "The Heart is Slow to Learn." A different rendition, "Love Never Dies" became the title piece for the sequel. (Think I may be preaching to the choir.) I thought both were beautiful but especially liked the first, and likely that was because of Te Kanawa. kzbin.info/www/bejne/foHOpp9vrdZ5qs0 I don't know about legal hoops to jump through and how hard it would be to record and/or film but I think you could do a great job with this - and you never know who might be home watching KZbin videos at this time. :-) Thanks for the videos, Courtney, keep exercising the pipes - and stay well!

@@larryswaim5012 Wow, you are so kind!!! I have never been on Broadway, or sung at the Met! I mostly do Shakespeare. But, boy, those are dream stages to perform on! I'm listening to the song you sent right now - I'll see what I can do to get it recorded :) It must've been the original lyrics before we got "Love Never Dies" - how cool!

[@amirahzuhri]

Wow. That was lovely! Thank you.

[@peterschilt1670]

Wow, Courtney - this is awesome! You nailed this, and you have a beautiful gift with your voice!

[@CourtneyLucien]

Peter, Thank you!! I've enjoyed making videos while I'm stuck at home! I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy. Sending you love!

[@CourtneyLucien]

Thank you!! Yes, I haven't been very active on KZbin, but the responses to these videos have blown me away! :)

So pleased to have discovered your responses to ALW. The freshness, clarity and intimacy of your voice is a treat. What you do directly and immediately conects the composer and songwriter's intentions with my soul.

[@CourtneyLucien]

You are so kind - fresh, clear, intimate: I love these descriptions! I appreciate you watching and writing a comment, as I enjoy singing for those who enjoy listening :)

[@CourtneyLucien]

@@coreyblake8468 That is one of the plus-sides of having some more down-time!! --- I haven't had luck with him noticing me, but I know there are LOTS of others doing what I'm doing with these response videos! haha I'm having fun making them for whoever is interested in watching :)

[@coreyblake8468]

Courtney L. You’re absolutely lovely! I’ve watched a lot of the responses and you’ve definitely stood out to me. I also tweeted your response to him. Hope he sees it! Best of luck and thank you for sharing your talent with us!

[@CourtneyLucien]
