Alfred Releases Fame: The Musical and Hairspray Songbooks

August 23, 2007

There's nothing quite like a catchy Broadway musical soundtrack to get your toes tapping and put a smile on your face. Alfred has released two hit titles from the acclaimed Broadway musicals and movies: Fame: The Musical and Hairspray, for piano/vocal/chords.

Fame: The Musical has been dazzling audiences since its debut in 1988. Originally based off the award-winning 1980 movie, then a long-running television series and even a reality show, the musical follows the lives of a group of aspiring entertainers at New York's High School for Performing Arts. Catchy songs and spectacular dance numbers fill the Broadway hit that has now been produced in nearly 25 countries worldwide. This summer, Fame: The Musical began a new run at the prestigious Shaftesbury Theatre in London's West End.

Hairspray blasted its way into theaters this summer with a fresh new twist on the original 1988 classic. With stars like John Travolta, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Christopher Walken singing and dancing to these outrageous tunes, there is no doubt fans across the nation will want to try this at home. The Tony-Famewinning musical has been wowing crowds since 2002. Now moviegoers can become a part of the action, the comedy, and most importantly, the music.

Alfred presents the music to the many hits from the Fame: The Musical and Hairspray soundtracks. All songs include lyrics, melody line, and chord changes with professionally arranged piano accompaniment.
