Free Music Review: An Original Musical based on theatrical life!
Hit: 4 Stars
Michael Bennett and Marvin Hamlisch created and developed "A Chorus Line" about a group of aspiring dancers, singers, and thespians. In this soundtrack. you hear Carole Bishop who is better known to audiences now as Kelly Bishop (from Gilmour Girls etc.) and the original cast who may not have all gone on to stardom. This musical has it's moments and there is some vulgarity that may hold back from being performed in high schools around the country. The aspiring dancers remind me of those contestants on American Idol or supermodel or even Top Chef. They sing about how they got their aspirations, interest, and desires to become dancers. For those lucky few, they will dance in a chorus line. The tough job is the choice of so many worthy contestants and the heartbreak of loss. I saw a college production in 1991 and listened to the soundtrack repeatedly until I got sick of it but still I enjoyed it after a hundred times.
A Chorus Line (1975 Original Broadway Cast) Poster
Michael Bennett's 1975 tale of Broadway's gypsies--the chorus dancers--resonated with audiences as few shows ever have, examining with both hilarity and heartbreak the grueling life of ordinary performers always auditioning for an opportunity to be members of a faceless chorus line. And along the way, it picked up the Pulitzer, the New York Drama Critics Award, and nine Tonys, and became the longest-running show in Broadway history. The original cast (eight of whom contributed their real-life memories to the show) included no major stars, but are unmatched on this cast recording of Marvin Hamlisch and Edward Kleban's score, including Priscilla Lopez's poignant "Nothing," Donna McKechnie's yearning dance number "The Music and the Mirror," one of Broadway's most famous torch ballads in "What I Did for Love," and the ultimate high-kicking chorus number, "One." Fans of the show will welcome the 1998 remastered CD, which adds two and a half minutes to "Hello Twelve, Hello Thirteen, Hello Love." While still incomplete, the montage now includes "Four-foot ten," "Little brat," and "The worst thing in school...." --David HoriuchiBroadway & Vocalists Music CDs
