1.0 out of 5 stars AWFUL !!!, August 7, 2003

The orchestration of this karaoke recording is awful. All the songs are recorded at a much faster pace than the standard for the original score; so fast that there is no way you can sing legato (connected sound of the voice) or do a ritardando (taking your time to express emotion).

Broadway producers should sue this cheap company for this lack of respect against Broadway's high standards. I was not expecting the London Symphony Orchestra or the Boston Pops, but this is ridiculous. The music here sounds like children's music sung by clowns in a circus.

The performers that sing the vocal demos sound like they are making fun of the music. The orchestration was all done with cheap keyboards. Do not waste your money in this junk.

I bought this CD and couldn't believe how bad it was. The "orchestration" is played on a $25 Casio keyboard. They don't even play the notes, just a shapeless mush of block chords. SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!

I was extremely disappointed in this rip-off karoke CD. The tempi are too fast, the singers are not very good, and the instrumentation sounds badly electronic. I plan to listen to any other Broadway show karaoke CD before buying - I wouldn't have bought this one if I had!
