Nothing Like Broadway: The Podcast

De: David Rackoff
  • Resumen

  • We pick one musical theater song, and then we pick it apart to figure out how it works in the context of the show. How do the music, lyrics, character, and story all flow from one amazing song to become something more than the sum of its parts? Host writer/composer David Rackoff does his best to explain it all.

  • Tradition (from Fiddler on the Roof)
    Sep 4 2024

    Host writer/composer David Rackoff takes a deep dive into "Tradition". Why is this the opening number? How do you get four groups to sing things at the same time and have it sound good? And what is the big mystery that the (only) rhyme in this song unlocks?

    Suggest a song to break down, or just let us know what's on your mind.

    Writer/composer David Rackoff (of "Nothing Like Broadway!: the musical") takes a close look at a song he used to hate, "Everything's Coming Up Roses". He looks at how its music, lyrics, and context make it one of the most devastating songs in musical theater. "It's like watching a horror movie!".
