Hi all,

Now just what is your favourite musical/s and why ? I hope to get a great response from this one! (if i get any that is)

My all time favourites list include Les Miserables (of course!), also the King and I, Oliver, My Fair Lady. There are more of course but I don't want to go into too many right now.

I'll talk about why I adore these musicals when i get some kind of feedback on the topic.

*And for those interested in other spheres of music (e.g. Eliot) did you know that the Claude-Michel Schoenberg of Les Mis fame is the great nephew of the famous German atonal composer Arnold Schoenberg of Transfigured Night/Pierrot Lunaire fame? It interested me anyway...

Hmm... I suspected as much, even though I've only ever seen his name spelt Claude-Michel Schonberg (can't do umlauts on this thing).

If only Claude-Michel's music was half as interesting to me as his great-uncle's.... but that's another story for another time.
