It’s no big secret that my two favorite shows this season is Fun Home and An American in Paris. And a big reason is the wonderful music. “Ring of Keys” brought tears to my eyes both times I heard it sung live by the endearing Sydney Lucas. And George Gershwin’s “An American in Paris” symphony is one of the great pieces by an American composer. Of course, I’m not leaving out my beloved Side Show. “I Will Never Leave You.”

Here’s a short selection of some of the big hit tunes from this season on Broadway. Happy listening!
