cast recording

A cast recording is an audio or digital recording of all the musical numbers and songs performed by the cast of a theatrical production, such as a musical or play. It captures the performers’ voices and the musical arrangements as they appear in the show, allowing audiences to experience the performance outside the theater. These recordings help promote the show, preserve its music, and enable fans to enjoy the experience at any time. Essentially, it's an official soundtrack that documents the vocal and musical elements of a live theatrical performance.
