Personally I think 'Beniamino Gigli' is closest tenor to Leroux Erik. (I also think swedish tenor Jussi Bjorling and french tenor Georges Thill are close tenor to Leroux Erik too.)

Gigli was perfect lyric tenor with honey-like sweet voice. Also, he sang Verdi's Otello (dramatic tenor's typical role) perfectly too.(+ To prevent misunderstanding: Opera Otello in Leroux's book is Rossini's opera Otello. Not Verdi's. Rossini's Otello is not dramatic tenor's role. But Leroux wrote Erik can sing like thunder, so I wrote about dramatic tenor's role.)

In addition, Gigli was italian tenor but he did huge success as Faust. And he was great Romeo. Of course, Gigli sang 'Rachel, quand du Seigneur' from french opera 'La Juive' greatly too.

Mikael Samuelson - Nattens Musik (Music of the Night)

Favorite version just after Crawford’s.

Also, is it just me or does the Christine here (Johanne Brochmann, I think)  resemble Heather Sears, the Christine in the 1962 Hammer version?

I have be lucky and met two of my favorit Phantom of the opera actor in Sweden. The first one that i met was Mikael Samuelson in gothenburgs opera house and it was not planned.

I did not know that he was gona be there and i was there in the backstage doing a interview ( because it was a schoolwork) with one of the staff in the opera. When i told her that i really like Mikael Samuelson as the Phantom and she said that he was here and she could take me to met him.

I was beyond happy and he was so nice talk to and he fix a pen so i could get hos autograph (i hade a paper but not a pen).

The second actor was Peter Jöback and i met him after one of his concerts and i get two autograph and a hug from him.

Edit: it was not planned or with meaning to touch Peter Jöback in the way that I do in the photo but I don't regret it.
