Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "Heights" Aims High and Reaches Higher
This tantalizingly brisk recording of the Tony award winning musical is both a hybrid and an amalgamation of two so seemingly disparate musical styles that it would have seemed inconceivable that such an achievement was possible. Purists of either camp, be it latino/rap/hip-hop or traditional musical theater, may squirm at "In the Heights" as an abomination when it is actually doing what inventive commercial music always does: challenges, entices, broadens and ultimately invites a new audience in. While not a blockbuster in the vein of "RENT", "In the Heights" actually has a more successful and clever score than even that seminal piece. Composer-lyricist-actor Lin-Manuel Miranda has seemingly come out of nowhere fully formed as both an insprired artist and a very skilled craftsman in the ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great way to shop and save money
My title says it all. Quality mdse and getting a better price. I have many things here that I would love to sell but I am not that savy of what is going on. I need to find someonr who can help me. I will one day



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Latino Music Hits Broadway in a Huge way!
very exciting score. Blends Latino and Rap in a very stylized and unigue way. It is exciting to listen to and makes you desire to see it on the satge!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - In the Heights of my musical theatre favourites..
I haven't seen this musical until today, but my sister recommend me this CD, I bought it and I never thought it could become one of my favourite soundtracks of a musical. The music is amazing, Lin Miranda has a tremendous talent composing every single letter of this play.

The latin influence in the music make it different, happy, fresh and enjoyable. 96,000 is one of my favourite songs as well as Blackout, but I think the best song is Sunrise!!!

You won't regret buying this CD. Highly recommended!!!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Breath of Fresh Air
I have to admit to being a bit cynical about the future of the Broadway musical. The Great White Way has become increasingly dominated by revivals, gimmicky star casting, and uninspired musicals based on movies that seemingly came out last year.

But "In the Heights" has renewed my faith in musical theatre's future. Here is a show that tells an original tale (hooray!) about a group of Latinos living in Washington Heights as they struggle to find their "home" in the world. Firstly, I applaud the show for helping to diversify the musical theatre scene. Secondly, it has been a long time since I have seen a show so singularly committed to a central theme (this theme being "home"), which I think lends "In the Heights" a cohesion other new works lack.
