If you liked Les Miserables and Evita, then you're sure to like Peter the Great-- the original cast recording of the new Rodgers and Ahern's musical, based on the early life the controversial Russian tsar, Peter I. From the tender, lilting sounds of the violins in the Mozart-inspired opening instrumental, Sunrise on the Moscow River, to the uptempo pop/jazz piece Paranoia to the poignant love ballad Without Him--(a duet between Peter's wife of an arranged marriage, and his beautiful German mistress)-- Peter the Great is truly an eclectic blend of the best sounds of Broadway. Steven W. Rodgers' melodic yet passionate music, combined with British songwriter Wendy Ahern's witty, thought-provoking lyrics, ensure that this CD will impress even the most ardent music critic.
