Music reviews of Carousel (1994 Broadway Revival Cast)

Music Review: Not Great
Rating: 3 Stars

Michael Hayden is really the weak link here. Everyone else is pretty fantastic. Unfortunately, Billy Bigelow happens to be the lead of the show. His voice gets whiny and thin as he has to sing higher -- it's especially noticeable on "Soliloquy." Other reviewers have mentioned that he puts character first, and this makes up for his weak singing. To that, I say that this is not a play -- it's a musical. The music is the most important thing, and Hayden is really amateurish.

Description of Carousel (1994 Broadway Revival Cast)

Carousel may have been one of Rodgers & Hammerstein's least popular shows at the time, but it's now considered one of the duo's most compelling offerings, and there are plenty of good recordings to choose from. Nicholas Hytner's much-praised production originated in London (with a cast album available on RCA/Victor) before successfully opening at Lincoln Center in New York. The CD's nicely illustrated booklet gives a fair idea of Bob Crowley's spectacular sets and costumes, which went a long way in helping Hytner reinvent the show (he got rid of "The Highest Judge of All," for instance). The American cast (only Michael Hayden's Billy Bigelow appeared in both cities) is as good as it gets, with special kudos going to Audra McDonald and her heavenly "Mister Snow." The original recording may have historical value, but this one's artistically and vocally top-notch. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
