Lyrics for the Operas


Does anybody have, know, or know where the lyrics of the various fictitious opera selections can be found?

I'm particularly interested in the Russian opera based on Tchaikowski's 4th Symphony used during the chandelier scene...

As well as the Chopin aria Susannah Foster sings as she makes her entrance following Madame Biancarolle's "touch of indigestion."

I've printed the lyrics coming from the website www.phantom of the opera soundtrack. I hope you'll enjoy it while listening to the minus one of these songs.

Thanks...but that doesn't appear to be a valid link or a working web site.

Did you maybe leave something off?

Come on...doesn't anyone have the lyrics? Or know what they are? Or where I can find them on line?

So are they fictional operas then? What about the song Claudin plays on the violin?

Lullaby of the Bells -which appears as Claudin's violin solo, piano solo, Christine & Raul's song and the final concerto- was composed for the film by Edward Ward, who also adapted various classical pieces into the operas heard throughout.

The only real opera was Martha, by Flowtow, but they changed the language (and presumably the lyrics) from the original German to French.
