Hi,
this is Stephen Schwartz, the composer of Wicked
and co-producer of this soundtrack album.
I'm excited to share it with listeners
who don't know Wicked,
but maybe even more so
with those who do.
With amazing singers like Cynthia Erivo,
Ariana Grande,
plus Jonathan Bailey and others,
bringing their fresh takes to the songs,
and with the kind of great giant orchestra
one can only get in the movies,
this new recording of Wicked Part One
is one of the most fulfilling albums I've ever worked on,
and I can't wait for you to hear it.
