Written by Meredith Willson, The Music Man spent several years in development before finally opening on Broadway in December 1957. It proved to be an instant success, earning five Tony Awards, including Best Musical during its 1,375 performances. The cast recording would top the charts for twelve weeks and win the first Grammy Award for Best Original Cast Album. It was turned into a film version in 1962, with Robert Preston reprising the role he had made his own during the Broadway run.
