Gotta agree with AADA81 - the music is rather snoozy. Same way I felt in the theatre. Everything started sounding the same and I got bored pretty quickly.
I love the cast album. Seeing and hearing it live is more powerful (obviously) but I still think the cast album is excellent. The music is just absolutely beautiful and the lyrics are so well thought out. One of the better scores I’ve ever heard. It was a true experience to life through this show and hearing the songs for the first time as they performed them. I also especially love ‘Way Down Hadestown’ I think André De Shields and Amber Grey really shine in this song. (Wait for me reprise, all I’ve ever known, chant, are some of my favorites!)

Whaaaa. That's odd to hear. I find the music riveting and refreshing.
