Genesis of a Song: Alan Menken Breaks Down Writing His Little Shop of Horrors ‘Prologue

Описание к видео Genesis of a Song: Alan Menken Breaks Down Writing His Little Shop of Horrors ‘Prologue

One of the first songs Alan Menken and Howard Ashman wrote for the Little Shop of Horrors score was, indeed, “The Prologue.” Starting off with a funeral dirge—foreshadowing our horror story’s bloody end—the song quickly shifts to the familiar staccato sock hop–esque chords. Here, Menken describes how he and Ashman wrote the chart from top to bottom, and how you can see the evidence of their Little Shop collaboration in the Disney animated films that followed.
