Each week we explore the layers of ways songs tell stories - from melodies to harmonies, lyrics to dialogue, characters to scenes - and how it all comes together in this unique medium where songs are the engine of the story! This podcast is an exploration for anyone who loves musicals - if you’re a songwriter, playwright, performer, storyteller, theater kid, Disney adult, accompanist, or just a super fan — our goal is you’ll find something interesting here.<br /><br />Produced by <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.counterpointmusicals.com/" target="_blank">https://www.counterpointmusicals.com/</a><br /></p>
