I don't believe they've recorded it yet so April 6 seems unlikely.
they haven't?? what about those new songs that they've released?

I decided to email Disney Theatrical Group Guest Services about the release date (I had preordered the album in Denver). They currently anticipate a early May release. I didn’t ask if this estimate applies to just the theater release date or the street release date (which means the late June street release date could still be accurate). However, I did confirm that preorders purchased at the theater would be shipped out when it is available for sale at the theater.
It's not unusual for albums to be released early for digital download. Perhaps, the optimistic "early May" will apply to iTunes and other digital outlets and the CD will be available in stores on June 22nd.

I wouldn't be surprised if they even re-record those songs for the cast album

It should be interesting whether all four young Anna/Elsa actresses will be able to be heard in the cast album. But they were all at the first cast recording session.

No release date has been announced yet, but the orchesta for the cast recording will be expanded from 21 to 44 (including a string section of 22). I guess it's possible the 4 previously released songs could be re-recorded.

Loving all the Instagram updates from the cast! I can't wait for this to come out!
I mean in Caissie's post on IG she is clearly singing Monster in the booth... so I'm sure it's being recorded again.

Thanks for sharing the video link - I really enjoyed it!
Does anyone have any idea why they haven't released the album art yet?

Erm- surely you know what it will basically look like?
Hygge and FTFTIF was on the radio through Sirens today. How can we listen to it?
EDIT: I just caught the last 30 seconds of FTFTIF and it's gorgeous

I've heard Murin is great in the show, but vocally this left me really missing Kristen Bell.
Anyone in Australia? It's already up on the Australian iTunes.

Ditto. Wasn't expecting that going in to this recording, either. Oh well. And while I sort of appreciate that they wanted to include the orchestration for the dance break, I wish they would've left out the random giggles and heavy breathing and outbursts. That was awkward to listen to.

Murin vocally struggled when I saw the show last month. I'm curious to see how she did on the recording.

I was literally about to say: did that sound....dirty to anyone else? o_o

The number onstage does have slight hint of sexuality to it in contrast to the movie. It is funny but much better when you can watch it!

It was certainly funny to see it staged in Denver, as it captured how awkward Anna is, and how Hans plays along with it well to woo her. It would be interesting to see them stage a abbreviated version of it for a music video (unlikely) or a live performance (more likely).
Both Facebook and Twitter has a short video with Caissie Levy in the studio booth as the theme to "Let It Go" plays. Guess we may see a Music Video of "Let it Go" soon (hopefully).

I just remembered this and it worked: Change your iTunes to Australia. There are the previews and they're gorgeous!!!!
