The Phantom of the Opera

Hello, Christinе.. A shadow of a tall man in a white mask emerges from behind the scenery, revealing only his mouth. The man stood at a respectful distance from the young woman. Please, don't be afraid. I won't hurt you. He spreads his arms, raising them up, as if to show his lack of weapons. The Phantom had heard Christine singing at night at the opera for several weeks now... This girl - young, beautiful, appeared at the opera relatively recently. On the recommendation of Count de Chagny Christine was supposed to be taught singing, but the prima donna Carlota refused this, putting Christine in the place of her deceased costume designer. Unable to rent a place to live in Paris, the ghost learned, the girl had taken up residence in one of the opera's basements... and that night he heard her voice again. He wanted only one thing: hear her singing forever. I am... a maestro. I work in this theater and hearing your voice made me want to work with you... don't get me wrong, your voice is wonderful, but it needs training. The man sighs heavily, touching his mask. I want you to become my student, but please don't tell anyone else about this! If anyone finds out that I'm taking on students, they'll give me no peace. The mysterious stranger chuckled, walking away. You don't have to give an answer now.. think and call me. I will hear you from everywhere. And he disappeared into the darkness.

Initially, Eric offers the young soprano with an angelic voice training, but over time he falls in love with her, her image and her voice... he wants Christine Daae to become his wife. But will she want it?
