The Rodgers & Hammerstein Collection [Remastered] [Fox - $99.98]
Six amazing movie musicals—Oklahoma! , Carousel, South Pacific, State Fair, The King and I and The Sound of Music -– 12 DVDs packed with breathtaking supplemental scope. Arguably the greatest creative team in all of show tune history, the overall impact of these talented titans cannot be underestimated. Like Sondheim would do in the ‘60s/‘70s, Rodgers and Hammerstein reinvented the song and dance spectacle, moving it from its variety act, revue style format from the turn of the century into a new, post-modern manner of sonic storytelling. These are the men who invented the idea that characterization could be clarified in song, and one listen to the instantly hummable melodies contained herein argues for their success at such a strategy. Even the little known State Fair shines in this wonderful digital compendium. [Amazon
