Conductor:Alexander Frey Notes: Bonus tracK: "Spring Will Come Again" was written for, but not used in Thornton Wilder's "The Skin of Our Teeth." Bernstein reused the melody for the second movement of his Chichester Psalms.
Most of this recording is instrumental underscoring; a great deal of it was never heard in the theatre, as another composer's work was added for that purpose.
