About the Album: There is a Saying in Country Music that the Devil Has the Best Tunes. In the Musicals of Andrew Lloyd Webber, It's the Diva. Occasionally a Male Character Or Chorus Has a Hit Song, but There is Something About the Lloyd Webber Compositional Style that Makes the Female Voice, Particularly the Soprano, the Natural Outlet for his Soaring Tunes. This Collection Provides 16 Excellent Examples of this Thesis. The Popular Favourite Songs and Performers Are all Included, Many Singing Different Songs Than Those for which They Are Famous, Bringing a Different Angle to this Compilation and Introducing People to Songs Or Singers that They May Not have Heard Before. Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber was Involved in the Repertoire Choices and the Performers to Sing Them. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
