HAMLISCH UNCOVERED Album, Featuring Kelli O'Hara, Nancy Opel, Tony Sheldon and More, Out Today

Broadway Records celebrates Hamlisch Uncovered, released digitally today, December 15, 2017, and in stores on Friday, January 26, 2018. The album is available for order at www.BroadwayRecords.com.

When Marvin Hamlisch passed away in 2012, he left behind a number of scores that didn't go into the recording studio. With Hamlisch Uncovered, producers Michael Lavine, Chip M. Fabrizi and frequent Hamlisch collaborator Craig Carnelia unleash a treasure trove of unrecorded songs, including songs from the original version of Smile(lyrics by Carolyn Leigh), Ballroom (lyrics by Alan & Marilyn Bergman), his final musical The Nutty Professor (lyrics by Rupert Holmes), and several songs from his scores with Craig Carnelia: Imaginary Friends, Bullets Over Broadway and Sweet Smell of Success.

Featuring a bevy of Broadway luminaries including Kelli O'Hara, Randy Graff, Tony Sheldon, Hayden Tee, Nancy Opel, Leah Horowitz, Marissa McGowan, Lisa Brescia, cabaret stars Klea Blackhurst and Steven Brinberg, alongside several new voices, this is a must-have album for every musical theatre lover.

"Marvin's exuberance was a delight to be around. This collection of unknown Hamlisch songs strives to capture that exuberance while introducing you to some hidden treasures written by this boundless talent." - Craig Carnelia
