Hermann Van Veen - On Broadway

Review by Romain Beuvart

On Broadway is a delightful album by Hermann Van Veen that captures the essence of Broadway musicals. The album features a range of songs from classic Broadway shows like West Side Story, Les Miserables, and Cats, as well as some lesser-known gems.

The album opens with a lively rendition of "New York, New York" from On The Town, which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Van Veen's voice is smooth and effortless as he sings his way through the various show tunes. His interpretation of "Memory" from Cats is particularly moving, with his voice conveying a sense of longing and nostalgia.

The album is well-produced, with the instrumentation and arrangements perfectly complementing Van Veen's vocals. The use of strings, brass, and percussion is particularly effective in creating the theatrical atmosphere that is so integral to Broadway musicals.

Summary by Romain Beuvart

On Broadway is a wonderful album that will appeal to anyone who loves musical theater. Van Veen's voice is a joy to listen to, and the songs are timeless classics that will never go out of style. Highly recommended.
