Seek one of the four famous musicals "Les Miserables" for music analysis.

Les Miserables is a typical musical in British and American style, which is called "musical". There is no strict restriction on the singing style of this musical, which can be bel canto or popular, and it is completely set according to the needs of the plot characters. Music style is also a case, for example, LM is the style of symphony orchestra accompaniment, and Mamma Mia! They are completely popular electro-acoustic bands, but the same thing is that this kind of drama emphasizes drama conflict and drama logic, and some Legato music also follows this principle. The reason why Les Miserables has become a classic play of musicals is closely related to the development of musicals in the 20th century, in addition to its broad and classic humanistic background. Early musicals were born in bars and other places of entertainment. It is a style that mixes drama, dance, music and poetry in various ways. Classical music and popular performances are the sources of musicals, which originally came from Europe rather than Broadway. From Strauss's pop music to French operetta to mass entertainment, European song and dance theaters provide more vivid performance space for the birth of musicals. When people's tastes have changed from traditional Chinese opera and other performing arts, musicals, which are full of appreciation and conform to the nature of escape and freedom, have become a new outlet for people's feelings. In the United States, the fusion of jazz, rock music and fashion songs and dances formed a Broadway musical, which appeared in the Hollywood musical Desert Love Song in the 1920s and 1930s. Her heyday began in the 1960s, and has fully demonstrated her unique comprehensiveness and creativity-combining opera, symphonic jazz, rock and other artistic styles, such as conductor Bernstein's west side story. The industrialized production of music, singing and dancing and dancing beauty has always gone hand in hand, which has become a major feature of musicals. In the production, the concept of market mechanism has been strengthened, and the performance and commercial profit have always been integrated, which has become an important factor for the continuous success of musicals.

Musicals require that actors' appearance and temperament must conform to their roles, they must be good at singing and dancing, know how to perform, and have a solid foundation in music, but they are often informal in singing. In Les Miserables, Colm Wilkinson, the actor of Jean Valjean, showed a high level of bel canto. But when he is deeply in love, he sings exaggeratedly and casually.
