Review: The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber is a triumphant return for live theatre at Curve Leicester leicestermercury.co.uk - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from leicestermercury.co.uk Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
If you’re expecting Webber’s soaring melodies and ominous organ riffs, don’t get your hopes up. Surely this is where Braun comes into play, bringing his roster of A-list musical talent to the project, including artists like Justin Bieber, Demi Lovato, Ariana Grande, Kanye West, and Usher. Are we going to get a Justin Bieber love theme? An Usher slow jam played over the modern equivalent of ingénue Christine Daae and the phantom canoodling in the catacombs? McCarten was tight-lipped, but teased an all-star soundtrack.
“You’re aware of everyone on the list,” McCarten said. “They are multi Grammy-winning artists. We’re aiming to do something quite groundbreaking with music and the score, and something that may also be new for the artists themselves. We’ll reinvent this story for a new generation free from Gothic romantic period trappings. Our phantom is not offering anyone singing lessons, and there is no gondolier with a mask.”
