Reclams Musicalführer (german)

Over 130 musicals are presented in this classic reference work. For each one it provides information on the premiere and cast, a detailed plot summary, and an explanation of its importance for the development of the musical as a genre. An appendix includes short biographies of the composers, an index of everyone involved in the productions, and a catalogue of works. The new edition has been expanded to cover five successful recent Broadway shows: “Mamma Mia!”, “Hairspray”, “Avenue Q”, “Wicked” and “Spamalot”. 

More generally, the various Reclam music guides (for concerts, opera, etc.) are designed to help readers understand and listen to music more consciously. They 

 • introduce major works and composers, explaining their history, structure, scoring and stylistic features 

 • serve as listening companions for concert and opera visits, showing what happens in the piece and what to listen for 

 • act as compact reference books for students and interested listeners who want a reliable overview of important works and periods 

 • offer orientation in the classical repertoire, often organized by genre or composer, so readers can navigate the wealth of music more easily 

In short, the Reclam music guides are handy, authoritative companions that help you not only to listen to classical music, but to understand and contextualize it.
