“Every Day,” Broadway, 1993. Jennifer Lee Andrews as Cosette, Eric Kunze as Marius, Mark McKerracher as Jean Valjean.

A lovely rendition overall. Jennifer’s voice is slightly fluttery, but still a basically sweet, pretty soprano, while Eric’s Marius is silky-voiced, tender and passionate, and Mark’s quietly pained yet resigned Valjean provides the perfect poignant counterpoint.

“Éponine’s Errand,” Broadway, 1993. Lea Salonga as Éponine, Eric Kunze as Marius, unknown Gavroche.

It’s nice to hear Lea’s beautiful voice in one of Éponine’s scenes that wasn’t included in the TAC. Particularly one of her playful scenes, since the concert’s cuts obscure that side of her character. Lea definitely conveys that brash, cheeky spirit, yet still finds room for poignancy too, with how quiet she becomes on “...but God knows what you see in her!” and “No, I don’t want your money, sir.”

Eric sounds like an endearing Marius, with a bright, handsome voice. By the way, I wonder if he’s related to Erich Kunz, the famous operatic bass-baritone from the mid 20th century? Or are their similar names just a coincidence?

The uncredited Gavroche sounds cute and likeable.
