Snippets from BMI Musical Theatre Workshop CD, "No More Revivals" available online

No More Revivals is a collection of original works from songwriters who have been involved in the BMI Musical Theatre Workshop.

Each original song is sung by some of Broadway's finiest and all are wonderful, (I'm especially partial to Block, Olivo, Pierce, and Swenson's songs). The list of performers includes;

Stephanie Block
David Hyde Pierce
Kerry Butler & Nick Blaemire
Karen Olivo
Hunter Bell
Will Swenson
James Barbour (no sample)
and Kelli O'Hara

Give it a listen, it appears to be an awesome collection. It's slated for release in February. I'm definitely looking forward to this CD!

Snippets of the collection are now available for download or online streaming on Producer Michael Gilboe's website.

Thanks for the post Michael; and of course - your welcome!

Your welcome and I agree bwaybabe.

Whether it be Musical Theatre, Plays, Songwriting or Poetry; there's a plethera of talent just waiting for an opportunity to be displayed. More of this type of effort, with the support by the industries finiest entertainers would be most welcome.

Your welcome CateB.

Unfortunately, I don't see anything on Mr. Gilboe's site that lists the songwriters. Maybe there's something on the BMI site.
Whoever the writers are, I fully intend to support their work in Febuary when this CD is released. :)

Understood Michael. :)

I appreciate the samplings for the "Rivivals" CD and I'm enjoying the rest of your site as well. It's fun and informative. Hopefully, people are listening to the other offerings as well. I've taken a particular shine to Walk With Me, You're Never Gone and Face Down Blinded.

Keep up the good work! You have a new listener!

February release from Sh-K-Boom.

EDIT: Feb. was the info I had, but apparently, yes, that has changed. This article dated today (1/20) mentions it and says March release (Ghostlight), but again, no specific date yet.

Will buy the CD but the title "No More Revivals" is annoying.
