4.0 out of 5 stars Classic Menken, October 11, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: A Christmas Carol (1995 Original Broadway Cast) (Audio CD)

Menken's A Christmas Carol is an excellent interpretation of the classic Dicken's novel. It has the well written if somewhat familiar Menken sound and some clever lyrics by Lynn Ahrens. A soundsgood recording of a feelgood classic.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Christmas Carol- For the KIDS, February 7, 2002

loesser "lbw22" (colonia, nj United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Christmas Carol (1995 Original Broadway Cast) (Audio CD)

This Christmas Carol knows how to please its audience, which are mostly kids. It also knows how to fill a giant stage with spectacular production numbers. Dickens may turn over in his grave as his story is sweetened and shortened. But he's used to that after "Oliver". I'll stop being a Scrooge and admit that it is joyous with an excellent score by Menken and Ahrens.

5.0 out of 5 stars An adaptation that soars like the original, November 11, 2002

Nicholas M. Martorelli (Norristown, PA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Christmas Carol (1995 Original Broadway Cast) (Audio CD)

Mr. Scrooge and his three Christmas spirits are icons of popular culture, for everyone knows the story of "A Christmas Carol." In this wonderful musical, however, the story is retold and reimagined through an hour and a half of enjoyable music. I stumbled upon this CD accidentally in my local library, and it was a hunt to find it after that. Telling the majority of the story through song, the CD captures the essence and spirit of Dickens's classic, while introducing modern and original touches as well. The cast is wonderful, and they have a strong vocal sound. I certainly recommend this CD to anyone.
