Original Broadway Cast Album

An Original Broadway Cast Album is a professionally recorded sound recording of the music and performances from the original cast of a Broadway musical. It captures the singers' voices, orchestration, and choreography, serving as an official record of the show’s music. These albums allow fans and new audiences to experience the production’s songs outside the theater, preserving the show's theatrical essence. Released shortly after opening, they often help promote the show and become timeless representations of its musical achievements.
