South Pacific, Songs of: 2-Disc Accompaniment CD

South Pacific, a Rodgers & Hammerstein musical, became the biggest success of the 2008 Broadway season. Winning eight Tony Awards, including Best Revival, should be no surprise for the musical that won all nine categories in which it was nominated in 1950. South Pacific contains many well-known songs, from the ballad "Some Enchanted Evening" to the comedic "I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Outta My Hair". This album includes the song "My Girl Back Home" which was written for the original production, but not performed until the revival.

There are 34 tracks on this album: Tracks 1-17 contain the background tracks and guide vocals; tracks 18-34 contain the accompaniment tracks alone. This album is a re-recording in the original show key and show tempo. The tracks on this album are fully-orchestrated.

Songs included are:

About Our Album Format All our albums include professionally recorded guide vocals. Each song appears on the album twice: once with music and vocals, and once with accompaniment tracks alone. This allows the performer to learn a song by singing along with the vocals and music, then to practice their technique accompanied only by the background tracks.   This album is recorded in CD, not CD+G format. There are no on-screen lyrics or lyric booklet provided.
