I mean, her people beheaded her and now we're ignoring her!
Okay, has anyone seen this musical or heard any of the music?
It's positively enchanting and I would recommend it highly!

I have only heard about two songs from the show, and I would really to hear all the songs. I have read a summary of the story, and the plot sounds interesting in the way they mix royalty and the people with Antoinette and Margrid Arnaud.

Is the trailer for it. I think that youtube's rather lacking footage sadly. I have the soundtrack from the musical though and it's stunning. Try Blind vom Licht. Also, you may recognise the person who played Herbert is in this - Tim plays the king hehe

That trailer is awesome! Right, this musical is now at the top of my list to check out.
Which song starts at 1:37? I recognize that tune! Think it was supposed to be in Elisabeth, an alternate version of Wenn Ich Tanzen Will. Sounds better in this context I think.

Yes, that was the first draft of Wenn Ich Tanzen Will ^^
It also has the same chord progression as a song from Mozart! which makes me want to start singing the wrong lyrics hehe!

The US Amazon and iTunes don't have this musical available to buy as an MP3 album. I can't afford to buy the actual CD right now. Shall have to add it to my list. How many songs are there on the album? The only CD version I've been able to find (so far) has only 13 songs on it! Surely there are more songs in the show than that...

There are more songs to the show but sadly they aren't all on the CD. I think that was one of the biggest complaints. My CD only has 13 songs so I think that's your lot for now.

I love Marie Antoinette. It needs a little work but it has so many great songs. Unfortunately, as you say, the album is so short. But it is worth buying. There are many songs I wish were on the album. I love "Gib ihnen alles, was sie woll'n" -- Why is that song not on the album!? -- "Warum sie, warum nicht ich?" and Marie Antoinette's reprise to the same tune "Erst im Leid bin ich ganz ich" in the tribunal number, "Frauen von Paris," "Ich liebe dich mehr denn je" (Axel's reprise of "Das Einzige, was richtig ist"). There's much to love about this show. ENGLISH STUFF: SUBTITLES: "Blind vom licht der vielen Kerzen" www.youtube.com/watch?v=KswVOEkyLj8DEMO: "Turn, Turn" (Still, still) www.youtube.com/watch?v=n28kBzrfLawDEMO: "A Voice in My Heart" (Ich weine nicht mehr) www.youtube.com/watch?v=J16DYk5r1Co

All of the music is really emotive... I think that's what makes this musical a winner in my eyes.
I think a lot more could be made of this musical and I don't really understand why it's not a lot more popular!

I just decided to have a little look on youtube and found some more videos. In no order.

I have been given full recording of MA It's very professionally done. Only flicked through so far so not sure if it's a recording by the theatre that wasn't meant to be shown around (which is what I think due to quality) or a VERY good person in the audience. Anyway, guess what's getting subbed after Rebecca

I've only had a little flick through but I think it is the OC... was there more than one case in its run?
