Mark Charlap & Jule Styne & Carolyn Leigh
Published by Stage Stars Recording
Large Mixed Cast
The original 1954 Broadway production of Peter Pan won a Tony Award for its two stars - Cyril Ritchard, as Captain Hook, and the legendary Mary Martin, as Peter Pan
Adapted from J.M. Barrie's 1904 play and his novel Peter and Wendy, this musical adaptation shares the adventures of Wendy, John and Michael Darling, as they join Peter and Tinkerbell on a trip to Neverland
In Neverland they come face to face with a ticking crocodile, a fierce Indian tribe, and a band of bumbling pirates
And, of course, Peter's villainous arch-enemy - Captain Hook
Music is primarily by Mark "Moose" Charlap with additional music by Jule Styne
Lyrics were written by Carolyn Leigh with additional lyrics by Betty Comden & Adolph Green
THIS 2-CD ALBUM FEATURES 14 SONGS FROM THE BROADWAY MUSICAL
The Vocal & Backing tracks are recorded in the original show key and show tempo and are of particular value to those of you preparing to stage the musical or preparing to audition
Each of the 14 songs appears on the album twice
Once with Backing Tracks & Guide Vocals
And once with Backing Tracks only
This enables the performer to learn a song by singing along with the vocals and music and then practise their technique accompanied only by the Backing Track
