Career
Brightman was a child prodigy in music and began taking dance and piano classes since she was 3. By 13, she had made her stage debut at the musical I and Albert at the Piccadilly Theatre in London.
From 1981 to 1989, Brightman was a theatre actress, appearing on such plays as Cats, The Pirates of Penzance, Masquerade, and Nightingale. She also appeared in many musicals composed by her then-husband Andrew Lloyd Webber, including The Phantom of the Opera and Song and Dance.

When Brightman and Webber divorced, she dabbled in music, which turned out to be a godsend as she quickly became one of the premier soprano singers in the world. To date, she has released 12 solo studio albums, 6 compilation albums, 8 video albums, 8 collaborative albums (with Andrew Lloyd Webber), 3 live albums, and 40 singles.
