Amazing new musical!Jul 21, 2010 When I saw this musical spring I turned right around and bought the soundtrack. The music is fresh and new and completely representative of a new generation of Broadway with characters that reflect the culture and community of New York's Brooklyn Heights.

It sucked!Jul 15, 2010 Seriously, the same lame story line that had been rehashed thousands of times. I really don't understand how this got such rave reviews and awards. Also, the music was average at best. I was hoping to see more latin and latin based hip hop and while there was some they were only fillers. Don't waste your money on this.
Great ServiceFeb 20, 2010 I was looking to buy this Broadway musical soundtrack before seeing the play.I thought the CD would not arrive before the performance.How pleasantly surprise was i to receive it just days later.I'm very pleased with the service I got,but extremely happier for this excellent soundtrack.
A diverse and inclusive BroadwayJan 03, 2010 In the Heights offers outstanding performances within a plot that allows an honest representation of one of New York's diverse faces: the latinos.
Lin-Manuel Miranda has managed to bring to life the day-to-day reality of individuals that do come to the States pursuing the American Dream. It is easy to observe the invisible, but always-present ties, to their own cultures.
Hats off to the amazing performance delivered by Olga Merediz, everyone's grandmother without real grandchildren of her own. Her character is not only convincing but we all feel that we have an Abuela Claudia in the family.
It is a true joy seeing this play on stage and listening to its music. In time, it will be a classic and will open doors to other cultural groups to represent themselves. Bravo!
Can't wait to see it live!Sep 13, 2009 Absolutely LOVE this CD! Can't wait to see it live! This was the only place I could find it at a decent price too!
