Carousel PBS

The second collaboration of composer Richard Rodgers and lyricist Oscar Hammerstien II,
Carousel remains an enduring theatre landmark. Transferring the setting of a brooding Hungarian play to a remote New England fishing village, shaping their vision around themes of brutality, poverty and disappointment, Rodgers and Hammerstien composed some of the most glorious music ever written for stage. the New York Philharmonic, led by Rob Fisher, captures all the power and subtletyof this dazzling work in an all star performance starring Kelli O'Hara, Nathan Gunn, Jessie Mueller, Jason Danieley, Shuler Hensley, Stephanie Blythe and John Cullum.
