Review: Hadestown – Hadestown (Original Broadway Cast Recording) Special Edition LP :
“Welcome to the underground!” With its haunting melodies, poetic lyrics, and captivating storytelling, the original Broadway cast recording of “Hadestown” invites listeners on a journey to the depths of the human soul. From the opening chords of ‘Road to Hell’, listeners are transported to a world where the line between love and darkness blurs. Mitchell weaves together elements of folk, jazz and blues, creating a sound that feels both timeless and contemporary. Reeve Carney’s portrayal of Orpheus is filled with a tender vulnerability, while Eva Noblezada’s Eurydice exudes a raw, restless energy. Patrick Page commands as the ominous Hades, his deep baritone sending shivers down the spine. Standout tracks include ‘Wait for Me’, a haunting duet between Orpheus and Eurydice that captures the essence of longing and hope and ‘Chant’, a mesmerizing ensemble number that builds to a powerful crescendo.
