Rodgers & Hammerstein's Carousel

The second collaboration of composer Richard Rodgers and lyricist Oscar Hammerstein II, "Carousel" remains an enduring theater landmark. Transferring the setting of a brooding Hungarian play to a remote New England fishing village, shaping their vision around themes of brutality, poverty and disappointment, Rodgers and Hammerstein composed some of the most glorious music ever written for the stage. The New York Philharmonic, led by Rob Fisher, captures all the power and subtlety of this dazzling work in an all-star performance starring Kelli O'Hara, Nathan Gunn, Jessie Mueller, Jason Danieley, Shuler Hensley, Stephanie Blythe and John Cullum. Together with "Oklahoma," Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Carousel" changed the course of the American musical forever, and this production proves why.
