Chicago The Musical New Broadway Cast Recording Blu-spec CD2
ニュー・ブロードウェイ・キャスト/シカゴ・ザ・ミュージカル ニュー・ブロードウェイ・キャスト・レコーディング
Chicago returns in the New Broadway Cast's 1996 revival recording, presented on Blu-spec CD2. Winner of six 1997 Tony Awards and a 1998 Olivier Award, the musical shaped by Bob Fosse's book and choreography turns scandal into show business in 1920s Chicago.
Two dancers exploit murder headlines to climb toward stardom while a shrewd lawyer steers their fortunes. The score captures their stylish, provocative world through numbers including All That Jazz, Cell Block Tango, Roxie and Razzle Dazzle, preserving the performances behind the revival's enduring reputation.
This Japanese edition also includes Ute Lemper's performance of All That Jazz. Lemper played Roxie in the London West End production.
