Title: Quel dommage!
Product review: For a huge Les Miserables fan and a francophile, this CD was a bitter disappointment.The voices of the characters are flat and without passion; the singers seem to be reciting the words, without any idea as to who they are and why they are there. The best character in the entire show, Javert, is not developed and is confined to a tiny part. Adult Cosette is intolerable. Enjolras attempts to save the overall quality of the CD, but he is not enough for me not to regret buying it.The only upside of the CD is to hear the lyrics in its original form, but the singers are frankly not doing the justice to the words. I hate to say that, but the English version is much better.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
