Colm Wilkinson (born 5 June 1944), also known as C. T. Wilkinson, is an Irish tenor, best known for originating the role of Jean Valjean in ''''Les Misérables'''' (in the West End and Broadway) and for taking the title role in ''The Phantom of the Opera'' at the Sydmonton Festival and in the original Canadian production. Due to his association with these musicals, he reprised the role of Jean Valjean during the ''Les Misérables'' 10th Anniversary Concert (at The Royal Albert Hall), as well as appearing as a special guest at the 25th Anniversary Celebrations of ''Les Misérables'' (at the O2 arena) and ''The Phantom of the Opera at the Royal Albert Hall''.〔(Review ) allmovie.com, accessed 3 April 2009〕 His versions of both "The Music of the Night" from ''Phantom'' and "Bring Him Home" from ''Les Misérables'' are acclaimed throughout the world; fans "insist he perform them...at all his concerts."〔()〕 == Early life == Born in Drimnagh, in 1944, in the downstairs room of his parents' house, Colm was one of ten children. He recalls a home that resonated with singing, poetry, and musical instruments. Both of his parents were skilled musicians. His mother, a native of Crossmolina in County Mayo, was a singer and was involved in amateur dramatics, while the banjo and mandolin formed part of his father's extensive repertoire. Colm worked with his father, who was an asphalt contractor, and was playing in bands part-time. At just 16 years of age, he went to the US on a tour, and soon after quit the family business to become a full-time professional musician.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.braypeople.ie/news/colm-wilkinson-2664573.html )〕
