Music reviews of Carousel
Music Review: commendable "Carousel"
Rating: 4 Stars
This reissue really flew under the radar when it was first released; a real shame, because it's one of the most complete "Carousel" recordings ever produced. Firstly, the pedigree of it's cast cannot be denied - celebrated, charismatic New York opera personalities Robert Merrill and Patrice Munsel, are the doomed lovers Billy and Julie. Florence Henderson--who the previous year had made a big splash on the Broadway stage in "Fanny" (her first lead role)--is a most delightful Carrie; and Gloria Lane plays Cousin Nettie. This album was originally released by RCA in 1955.
Content-wise, it was the most complete "Carousel" album on the market for many, many years (that is, until the 1987 Barbara Cook/Samuel Ramey studio production). Under the musical direction of Lehman Engel, the album boasts the seldom recorded "Geraniums in the Winder" and the complete Bench Scene/"If I Loved You". Merrill and Munsel are in glorious voice; Henderson's silvery, youthful soprano serves her in incredible stead with "Mister Snow" and "When the Children Are Asleep", the latter a duet with Herbert Banke's solid Mr. Snow.
Bonus tracks feature highlights from the 1956 RCA/Lehman Engel studio album of "Show Boat", which again starred Robert Merrill and Patrice Munsel. It's available in it's entirety on another Flare release. Recommended.
