Reflections on Tragic World Opera
Compared with most musicals, Les Miserables has a much sadder plot and many solemn and stirring songs. Occasionally, one or two relaxed or melodious songs are drowned out by the sound of blood and iron. Before watching Les Miserables, I listened to Weber's musical and paid more attention to the tune. So when I watched the video of the tenth anniversary music, I repeatedly thought about how those actors recited it, because many songs were out of tune in my opinion. However, after watching it several times, I suddenly found that some songs can also be around for three days. For example, do you hear the people singing? The unadorned enthusiasm and the unique enthusiasm and determination of the crowd are rare in other musicals.

The musical Les Miserables is not only enduring in Broadway theaters in the United States, but also has a long-standing reputation in the world. Pure musical form, through the cross-development of multiple themes, gives full play to the humanitarian spirit; The very important lyrics in opera contain the essence of Christian spirit, and even emphasize the changes brought by faith more than the original.

Les Miserables tells the story of the war waged by the third class for freedom and equality under the background of the French Revolution. Under the cruelty of reality, they created vivid characters: Jean Valjean, who sacrificed everything for his freedom and his ideal, Fantine, whose mother showed infinite concern for her children, Marius, who shed blood for the revolutionary cause and was passionate about love, and so on. And some villains (hotel owners and Javert) are also fighting for their ideals.
