Puteri Gunung Ledang (musical) - Songs

Songs

Director and writer Zahim Albakri was influenced by the musicals of Rodgers and Hammerstein, opting for "rousing numbers, a full chorus performing lavish song and dance spectacles, and colourful costumes and props". Composer Dick Lee found inspiration in Bali, Java and among his own Peranakan heritage. A live cast recording of the songs from the show was released on CD in August 2006. A few songs were omitted from the album, all of them featuring the vocals of Sukania Venugopal.

Famous quotes containing the word songs:

    “We who with songs beguile your pilgrimage
    And swear that Beauty lives though lilies die,
    We Poets of the proud old lineage
    Who sing to find your hearts, we know not why,”
    —James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)

    “When we were at school we were taught to sing the songs of the Europeans. How many of us were taught the songs of the Wanyamwezi or of the Wahehe? Many of us have learnt to dance the rumba, or the cha cha, to rock and roll and to twist and even to dance the waltz and foxtrot. But how many of us can dance, or have even heard of the gombe sugu, the mangala, nyang’umumi, kiduo, or lele mama?”
    —Julius K. Nyerere (b. 1922)

    “How learned he bitter songs of lost Iambe,
    Or that a cup-shaped breast is nothing vile?”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
