Days Of Wine And Roses (Original Cast Recording)

The original cast album of Adam Guettel's Broadway musical Days of Wine and Roses, with a book by Craig Lucas, stars Kelli O'Hara and Brian d'Arcy James. This searing musical is based on the 1962 film and original 1958 teleplay of the same name, about a couple falling in love in 1950s New York and struggling against themselves to build their family. Days of Wine and Roses marks the reunion of Guettel and Lucas, who last collaborated on the six-time Tony Award-winning musical The Light in the Piazza. "Repeated listenings compound the amazement," the New York Times says of Guettel's work, which "has always offered that kind of challenge-initially leaving a feeling of: Beautiful, but wait, I need to hear it again-and those up for it have a way of coming away shining like Moses down from the Mount. The new score has the same effect."
