Disney films of the 90s (specifically Hunchback ) pushed the envelope by bringing in Broadway and Opera talent. Lablache wasn't trying to sound like a cartoon. He sounded like a force of nature trapped in a cartoon. He taught a generation of kids that the villain wasn't scary because of what he did, but because of the sound he made.
For a specific generation, Lablache is the definitive sound of aristocratic villainy. He is the man who sang, "Kill the beast! Cut his heart from the villain's chest!" And if you just shuddered, you know exactly why he deserves a standing ovation. Unlike the celebrity stunt casting we see today, Jean Marc Lablache was a legitimate basso profundo —a rare vocal range so deep and resonant it feels like it’s shaking the floorboards. jean marc lablache
