Anniversary Concerts & Recordings
The first recording of Les Misérables was the original French language concept album, released in 1980. This album included a number of musical numbers, lyrics, and melodies different from what most show-goers are familiar with today.
In 1995, the 10th anniversary of the West End production was celebrated with a "dream cast" concert. The concert featured nearly all the musical numbers of the show, with just a few omissions. 15 years later, the West End celebrated it's 25th anniversary with another concert in 2010.
There are various cast recordings for Les Misérables featuring the casts from productions around the world and throughout time. Some examples include:
- Original London Cast recording (1985)
- Original Broadway Cast recording (1987)
- Complete Symphonic recording (1989)
- Paris Revival Cast recording (1991)
- Original Spanish Cast recording (1993)
- Japanese "Orange" Cast recording (2003)
- Le Capitole de Québec Highlights album (2008)
