Format:Audio CD
This CD has something very special for a soundtrack. It completely recreates the sound and atmosphere of the live show bringing back many fond memories. The songs are extremely well sung by a superb cast and wilst some say the music is not particularly memorable I completely disagree. I play Time Was When everytime I'm on my laptop and the rest of the score is passionate, subtle and moving. A must see musical and a must have album!

You have to see this show to fully appreciate the score on this CD. Because Boubil and Schonberg have written this with Michel Legrand, memories of Legrand's wonderful music and LES MIS come immeadiately to mind. Unfortunately the CD needs repeated playings until you begin to enjoy the music. For quick joy the ballad "Dreams,shining dreams" and " Time was when" are excellant and there is some dialogue and evocative sound between tracks giving the French resistance in Paris feel that helps in understanding the piece. Ruthie Henshall is wonderful but I did feel there should be more excellant Boubil and Shonberg Ballads to stick in my mind. Go see the show,then you'll want the album.

Saw this show july 2008. A really moving performance from both Ruthie Henshall(magnificent) and Julian Ovenden. The music is heavenly from start to finish and it is definitely a must see again tear jerker. Wonderful.

Just for comparison
Wow! Julian Ovendon has that effortless, beguiling, "Je ne sais quoi" of the late Jack Jones, with the power of Tom Jones.

Solid runner from a stable with a good track record
I'm not sure why Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg are not as well known as Lloyd-Weber and Rice. Read more

here we go again....
Well, take a little touch of les Miz, add Sunset Blvd, plus a sprinkle of West side story, add a lot of sugar, shake it, and you've got the sound of Marguerite. Read more

Love the music!
Saw this twice at the Theatre, loved it and just had to buy the music too. Ruthie Henshall was great and it was quite dramatic!

Beautiful and Emotional
I live in the U.S., and have not been able to see the show, but I'm a big Ruthie Henshall fan, so have read a lot about it and have heard clips of a few songs. Read more

Superb music from a superb show
I saw this show in June 2008 and it was excellent. Both Ruthie Henshall's and Julien Ovenden's voices stand out and there are several songs which get under your skin and you find... Read more
