Once On This Island

EDITORIAL REVIEWS
1995 winner of the prestigious Society of London Theatre's Olivier Awards for: Best Musical.Once On This Island, an unconventional Broadway Musical is part primitive folk myth and part romantic tragedy. It tells of love and sacrifice in a relationship doomed by racism. Loosely based around the idea of The Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Andersen. Once On This Island acquired a new cultural slant in an exotic, colorful setting, highly charged with vigorous Caribbean music, dance rhythms and magic. Playing originally on Broadway in October 1990 and running for 487 performances the show opened in to London in 1994 where a further success ensued. A rousing and fun score make this recording and joy to listen to from beginning to end. Included in this recording is the special bonus mix of The Human Heart sung by American born pop star P.P. Arnold (who has toured with the likes of Tina Turner and The Rolling Stones) which narrowly missed it's release as a chart single.Digital Dolby Surround effects are used to the full in this recording and give a graphic demonstration of the ambience and reality that this system can bring to the musical genre.
