Sarah Brightman & Antonio Banderas - The Phantom Of The Opera

Suggestivo  duetto  tra Sarah Brightman e Antonio Banderas, tratto dal celebre musical The Phantom of the Opera, scritto nel 1986 da Andrew Lloyd Webber, con la collaborazione di Charles Hart e Richard Stilgoe. La storia, liberamente ispirata all' omonimo romanzo di Gaston Leroux, racconta l'amore disperato di un geniale musicista dal volto sfigurato, che vive nei sotterranei dell'Opéra di Parigi, per la giovane soprano Christine Daaé. L'aria viene eseguita poco prima della metà del primo atto, quando Christine viene portata dal Fantasma nel suo covo. Nella versione originale il brano è eseguito da Sarah Brightman e Michael Crawford..CHRISTINE In sleep he sang to me, in dreams he came . . . that voice which calls to me and speaks my name . . . And do I dream again? For now I find the Phantom of the Opera is there - inside my mind . . . PHANTOM Sing once again with me our strange duet . . . My power over you grows stronger yet . . . And though you turn from me, to glance behind, the Phantom of the Opera is there - inside your mind . . . CHRISTINE Those who have seen your face draw back in fear . . . I am the mask you wear . . . PHANTOM It's me they hear . . . BOTH Your/my spirit and your/my voice, in one combined: the Phantom of the Opera is there inside your/my mind . . . OFFSTAGE VOICES He's there, the Phantom of the Opera . . . Beware the Phantom of the Opera . . . PHANTOM In all your fantasies, you always knew that man and mystery . . .
