Carousel: Sings Popular Music Of Leonard Bernstein
Digitally remastered edition. One of Rodgers and Hammerstein's best loved musicals Carousel is re-imagined in this 1962 studio recording produced by pioneering conductor Enoch Light and featuring musical direction and choral arrangements by leading Broadway orchestrator Jay Blackton. This unique interpretation features an all-star cast led by Alfred Drake and Roberta Peters alongside Claramae Turner (reprising her on-screen role of Nettie Fowler), Lee Venora, Norman Treigle and Jon Cain. The album was recorded on 35mm magnetic film, producing a rich and fulfilling musical experiences while preserving a dynamic sense of theatrical realism and sonic intensity. The Carousel recording is coupled with highlights from Alfred Drake and Roberta Peters' follow up album produced by Enoch Light, celebrating the songbook of Leonard Bernstein and featuring songs from West Side Story, On The Town, Wonderful Town and Candide. Both recordings make their debut on CD and have been digitally remastered from stereo reel to reel tape.
