Columbia Masterworks LP Album Set
A four-record Columbia Masterworks LP album set of the production was made in 1964, with its original cast. However, the recording was not made directly from the soundtrack of the film. The production's cast recorded it in the recording studio, and the album was released in both mono and stereo, but has so far not appeared on compact disc. The film, by contrast, was released only in mono sound.
After the film's release on DVD, a true soundtrack album of the motion picture actually was issued, but it remained in print for an extremely short time.
