I own almost every recording of Les Miserables as well as the 10th Anniversary DVD and now I have the 25th. I absolutely loved the 25th. It is a thrill to compare all these recordings and each one brings something special to the table. The camera work in this version was excellent. This is my first time hearing Alfie Boe sing and he handles the role of Jean Valjean really well. He is a strong singer, almost as good as Colm Wilkenson in his prime. How wonderful to hear Lea Salonga perform the role of Fantine, what an amazing singer and what emotion, The role of Javert was also well done, but Philip Quast in the 10th was stronger. All the performers held their own, but I did find Nick Jonas as Marius a bit weak. I admit I am comparing him to Michael Ball and in my opinion, no one can hold a candle to Michael Ball. Overall, the cast in the 10th are better, but true Les Miserables fans will want this one as part of their collection. All that is left now is a musical movie version of Les Miserables. So bring it on, I am waiting. By the way, grab the 25th CD recording while you are at it. It's a totally different cast and another opportunity to compare recordings. Oh yes, there is a great surprise at the end of this DVD. 5 stars without hesitation.

Everybody should have this DVD. Beautiful music and setting...we sing along with the players...we can't help it. Music doesn't get any better than this.

Format:Blu-ray
This is a spectacularly moving rendition of the production. The Blue-ray version provides superb video and the best sound available. Cameron Mackintosh's bringing together the current casts and the original cast provides a tear-jerking finale to a wonderful viewing and listening experience.

Love it!
I've seen this concert on PBS so I knew what I was getting. I saw Les Miserables live in Toronto in '89 and I loved it then as I love it now.

Un spectacle émouvant
C'est peut-être surprenant, mais ce concert est conduit de manière presque aussi divertissante que la comédie musicale elle-même. Read more

Can't say more - simply AMAZING! This is what made me want to see the movie and read the book. Now I need to see the play.

Not as good as the 10th year
i still enjoy the music and the show of Les Miserables. The new performers do a wonderful job, however I am not a fan of Nick Jonas in the roll of Marius. Read more
