Community Theater Green Room Discussion Board: 1776 Backing Track/Accompaniment

Message

   Does anyone know where I could purchase an accompaniment CD for the music in 1776?  We are a small but well established community theatre and the logistics of putting anything more than a piano player and a drummer in our space is impossible.  Having done a few Broadway Jr. shows with the "canned" music I've become sold on the fact that you can do a very credible musical without live accompaniment.

Having said all that, can anyone direct me to a site where I might find "canned" music minus vocals for the musical 1776?

	Don't just go by what's there - I'm sure he has 1776 as well as what's listed. Just contact him. http://www.bway2.com/tracks/ Best around that I've seen. I know this fellow and he's great to work with, most knowledgable and has done tracks for just about any show out there....though not all of them, but a LOT. Give him a call or E-Mail whatever he has for contact. Hard to reach at times but be persistant. TonyDi
