One more Broadway CD from my trip, filled with fantastic music from what I think is the most Broadway-style Disney animated feature, making the transition to stage easily. The additional songs on the CD are really wonderful, and their musical themes are woven into the other music, making them much more seamless and appropriate than some of the new Lion King songs. The performances by Belle and the Beast are completely perfect, and even a little better than I saw on stage. My only complaint is the actor who portrays Lumiere on the CD really overdoes the French accent - I know that sounds crazy, since the French accent is an essential part of the character, but he really does go too far. Fortunately, the actor I saw live was much better!Labels: cds, disney
