Great Menken Score To be Preserved
Posted: 6/12/12 at 06:14pm


The Broadway cast of the recent mega flop, 'Leap Of Faith' are in the studio this week recording the wonderful score.
The score is divine, its the show that sat heavily on it that totally sucked.
This is one to get hold of and indulge.

No Dev, as much as I detested the whole show, the score is wonderful. There are some truly show stopping numbers in there.

Love what I've heard from the score. And love Alan Menken's music - period. Also Raul Esparza is awesome!

So, really pleased they're recording this - can't wait to get my hands on the CD.

Sorry Mamma but i hate the score to this, it's so generic, much of it feels like an afterthought

'The score is divine, its the show that sat heavily on it that totally sucked.'

So going on the premise you said above, I haven't seen the show, nor heard the score, which you say is wonderful. I wonder then if the show was completely ruined by Christopher Ashley direction? It is very possible for a director to ruin a show, even if the other components are great, prove of this is that every production of Hamlet would be a success, if the direction was perfect.

MTI put up the biggest part of the money.
It appears Alan Menken will produce the recording. No label is yet attached so no release date either

I'll get it for Jessica Phillips. I caught her on one of the many occasions she went on for Alice Ripley in Next To Normal and she has THE most beautiful voice.
Faced with these Loreleis, what man can moralize!
