This is the best Broadway karaoke album I have in my collection. It has the entire musical score faithfully created. If you do theater to recorded tracks, this has everything you need for a production of West Side Story. Having been disappointed with many of the Broadway tracks avaiable because of either being incomplete or poor arrangements, I was thrilled with this CD. One of the best of the genre.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great, but see that there's a new cd coming out, February 21, 2008

This is a good, albeit quiet recording. The volume level seems quite low. I see there's a new version of West Side Story coming out on a accompaniment cd that includes some of the overlooked dance music in this version.

This review is from: You Sing The Hits of West Side Story (karaoke) (Audio CD)

I bought this CD for a single song, "America." A group of Japanese ESL students saw the Broadway production and were inspired to perform that number. But it was unusable. The tempo was much slower than the original, and the orchestration was spare and bland, lacking the brass and percussion that really makes the piece. It seemed like an elevator-music version. It may be suitable for drunken, middle-aged party-ers, but not for young people. I would have returned it, but thought the other songs might come in handy later.
