For AVID Entertainment's second instalment of Great Broadway Shows we have chosen a truly Magnificent 7; Guys and Dolls; Carousel; South Pacific; Gentlemen Prefer Blondes; Carmen Jones; Finians Rainbow and On The Town (excerpts), all perhaps made even more famous as classic Hollywood musicals in their own right!
Our super seven original Broadway Cast Shows cover a seven year period from 1943 to 1950 and feature some of the greatest writers in musical history, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Frank Loesser, Leo Robin and Julie Styne; Yip Harburg and Burton Lane and finally Betty Comden, Adolph Green and Leonard Bernstein.
We also feature such great leading original artists as Mary Martin, the great Met. opera bass Ezio Pinza and the inimitable Carol Channing making Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend (from Gentlemen Prefer Blondes) her own (despite Marilyn's fab film version!)
So take your front row seats and settle back to enjoy the remastered delights of classic Original Broadway shows at their very best.
