Music reviews of The Music Man (1962 Film Soundtrack)
Music Review: After all those years - still tops!!!
Rating: 5 Stars
The 1962 "The Music Man" is still my favorte musical after all these years. I saw the movie when it hit the Screen in 1962. This Special Edition CD is excellent. For a movie dating back to 1962 you would think the sound would be a bit off. Not so in this case - the quality is better than expected. If you really like the "The Music Man" be sure and get both the CD and the DVD Special Editions.
Description of The Music Man (1962 Film Soundtrack)
In light of all the hit Broadway musicals that have stumbled in their translation to the big screen, The Music Man stands out as an exception; it is one of the best-loved movie musicals of all time. A great deal of the credit goes to composer Meredith Willson, who resisted studio pressure to hire a big name for the title role (Frank Sinatra or Cary Grant) in favor of the Tony-winning stage star, Robert Preston, who turns in one of Hollywood's most magical performances as the spellbinder who hoodwinks a small town in Iowa. Shirley Jones did not perform the show on Broadway, but she had cut her teeth as a musical ingenue in the films of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma! and Carousel and gives Marian the librarian a lovely voice and charming personality. Most importantly, Willson's score combines marching bands and barbershop quartets to capture perfectly the spirit of America's heartland at the turn of the century. A classic. --David HoriuchiGeneral CDs
