Wicked (2003) more music like this

by Original Broadway Cast

Although best remembered for the classic 1939 film The Wizard of Oz, L. Frank Baum's series of early 20th century novels about the fairyland Oz have inspired a number of theatrical and cinematic adaptations, beginning with a Broadway musical version of The Wizard of Oz for which Baum himself provided the libretto and lyrics that opened in 1903, ...

Hairspray [2007 Soundtrack]

Hairspray [2007 Soundtrack] (2007) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Hairspray began life in 1988 as the first John Waters film to earn a PG rating, despite such subversive elements as the casting of cross-dressing Waters favorite Divine as Edna, the mother of the main character, tubby teenager Tracy Turnblad. The story was further softened in its conversion to a Broadway musical hit in 2002 with a raft of songs ...

Mamma Mia! [Original London Cast] (2000) more music like this

by Original London Cast

ABBA principals Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus turned to stage musicals after their band's demise and composed two, one of which, Chess, ran in the West End and on Broadway. For their third stage effort, they returned to their ABBA catalog and put together Mamma Mia!, a show that employs their old songs (with occasional lyric revisions) in the ...

Jersey Boys (2005) more music like this

by Original Broadway Cast

The success of the musical revue Smokey Joe's Café, which ran on Broadway between 1995 and 2000, and the book musical Mamma Mia!, which opened on Broadway in 2001 and was still running in the fall of 2005, led to a string of so-called jukebox musicals in which pop music catalogs of various performers were recycled in a theatrical context. Many of ...

The Phantom of the Opera [2004 Soundtrack] (2004) more music like this

by 2004 Soundtrack

Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical adaptation of Gaston Leroux's 1911 gothic mystery novel The Phantom of the Opera proved to be at least the composer's second-most successful project, behind only Cats, and with the potential to outdo even that blockbuster. The musical opened in London in October 1986 and in New York in January 1988, and both ...

Phantom of the Opera [Highlights] distills the cast recording of the popular Andrew Lloyd Webber musical to simply 13 tracks, all of which are the most popular numbers from the blockbuster production. Fans of "The Music of the Night," "Masquerade," "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again," "Think of Me," and "Angel of Music" who don't want to invest ...

Higher Ground

Higher Ground (1997) more music like this

by Barbra Streisand

As Barbra Streisand's first studio album of mainstream pop material in nine years, Higher Ground is something of an oddity. Instead of devoting herself to Broadway standards or a set of radio-oriented pop tunes, Streisand has crafted a record that she intended as a tribute to the power of music as prayer. It's an ambitious project, but for the ...

"Avenue Q has not been authorized or approved in any manner by the Jim Henson Company or Sesame Workshop, which have no responsibility for its content," reads a disclaimer found, among other places, inside the CD booklet for the original Broadway cast album of Avenue Q.

Spring Awakening (2006) more music like this

by Original Broadway Cast

Lyricist/librettist Steve Sater, who adapted Frank Wedekind's controversial 1891 play Spring Awakening into a musical along with composer Duncan Sheik, cites the shootings at Columbine as an inspiration to take on the story of adolescent explorations into sex and identity at a German secondary school. It's a telling corollary, since he and Sheik ...

Sarah Brightman's Classics collects old and new recordings of some of her classical vocal performances, including "Ave Maria," "Dans La Nuit," "Alhambra," and "Figlio Perduto." "Pie Jesu" is the lone nod to her collaboration with Andrew Lloyd Weber and "Time to Say Goodbye" is probably the most recognizable song on the album to the majority of ...

Chicago: Music From the Miramax Motion Picture (2002) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Maurine Watkins' satirical play Chicago has gone through several permutations since it opened at the Music Box Theatre on Broadway on December 30, 1926. There was a silent movie version in 1927, followed by a sound film called Roxie Hart starring Ginger Rogers in 1942. In 1975, director/choreographer Bob Fosse and the songwriting team of John ...

Les Miserables [Original Broadway Cast ] (1987) more music like this

by Original Broadway Cast

Originally conceived as a simple recording production, Les Miserables evolved quickly into one of the premiere theater events of the 1980s. Theatrically on par with Phantom of the Opera, Les Mis is drawn from the Victor Hugo novel of the same name. The story chronicles the life of Jean Valjean, a simple Frenchman arrested as a youth for stealing a ...

The Nightmare Before Christmas [2-CD Reissue] (2006) more music like this

by Danny Elfman

Danny Elfman, who has scored many of Tim Burton's imaginative films (Edward Scissorhands, his two Batman films, etc.), is a perfect musical partner for the somewhat macabre director, and never more so than here, where, in fact, Elfman gets not only to write the music but to play the part of the main character. The Nightmare Before Christmas is an ...

Disney's Karaoke Series: High School Musical (2006) more music like this

Containing both instrumental and vocal versions of almost all the songs from the original soundtrack (only "Stick to the Status Quo" is completely left out), the High School Musical edition of Disney's Karaoke Series is great for the aspiring teen singer. Plus, the bonus "girl solo" track, the duet with Troy on "Start of Something New," is a good ...

Anastasia [Atlantic] (1997) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

Since Anastasia is animator Don Bluth's attempt at a sweeping epic along the lines of Disney's Beauty and the Beast or The Hunchback of Notre Dame, it's not surprising that its score duplicates the Disney formula of balancing big show tunes from the film with re-recorded MOR pop versions of the same song. In this case, it's Aaliyah singing ...

The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection (1998) more music like this

by Sarah Brightman

Despite a long history of pop and musical-theater success in England, Sarah Brightman was not well known in the U.S. until her 1997 album Time to Say Goodbye became a triumph, topping the Billboard classical crossover chart for most of 1998. Really Useful Records, her former husband Andrew Lloyd Webber's label, took advantage of her sudden ...

Star! [Bonus Tracks] (1993) more music like this

Star!, a film biography of the British actress/singer Gertrude Lawrence (1898-1952), must have seemed like an excellent vehicle for Julie Andrews when it went into production in 1967 for a fall 1968 release. Andrews was, after all, the top female film star of the day, with a string of movie musical hits including Mary Poppins and The Sound of ...

The triumph that is the stage adaptation of the film Billy Elliot is all the more remarkable when one considers the many ways it could have gone wrong. Director Stephen Daldry's 2000 movie about a pre-adolescent boy in an English mining town discovering his love of dancing against a background of struggle among striking mine workers was set in ...

By the time this 40th anniversary deluxe edition of The Sound of Music appeared in 2005, it had gotten to the point where the soundtrack was getting reissued every five years.

The soundtrack to John Houston's movie adaptation of the Broadway blockbuster Annie is fitfully entertaining, featuring good versions of "Tomorrow," "It's the Hard-Knock Life," and "You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile." Even though the glossy production sounds good and most of the vocalists sound good, the soundtrack isn't as consistent or ...

A Collection: Greatest Hits...and More (1989) more music like this

Like Memories, A Collection: Greatest Hits...and More was an odd compilation, not quite a hits set, though it gathered up the big hits not heard on the earlier record -- "The Main Event/Fight," "Woman in Love," "Guilty," "What Kind of Fool" -- since it also seemed to be a grab bag, including a few stray album tracks, recycling the two new songs ...

Michael Bennett's 1975 valentine to "gypsies," the dancers who are often treated as so much mobile scenery in Broadway musicals, is sometimes considered to have broken new ground with its frank portraits of talented but frustrated performers. The score by Marvin Hamlisch and Edward Kleban is a favorite of "theater people" everywhere, but was ...
