The Musical Theatre Soundtracker Project - introduction

Lately I've been feeling like I keep listening to the same musical theatre soundtracks over and over and that I fancy a change so I came up with 'The Musical Theatre Soundtracker Project'. The aim of this is to dig up some soundtracks currently unfamiliar for me and to widen my knowledge of musicals. I will do this by embarking onto a month's soundtrack-a-day period starting on the 1st October. Every day I will listen to a musical theatre soundtrack on Spotify which I have never before listened to in its entirety. I will also find a little bit of background information about the show in question because I feel that's important and will be useful for me. I intend to post a short blog each day including a description and my views on the soundtrack. I'll try to pick out musicals from various eras and styles and I think I will end up embarrassing myself by admitting to having not listened to some pretty famous stuff... 

Stay tuned! :)

The essential introduction

I was planning on blogging in Finnish to begin with but I think I have settled for English now. It's easier for me anyway. And if I feel like it, I could always change. Finnish is my native language so feel free to comment in that as well. I also speak fluent Swedish and decent French, if you prefer. :)


Briefly about me: I moved to Espoo, Finland at the beginning of January after spending 4,5 years in London, the capital of the United Kingdom. By ethnicity I am as Finnish as one can get: my entire family are citizens of this particular Nordic country (apart from a few cousins several times removed whose grandparents moved to the USA almost a century ago) which most people know nothing about. Despite being back in my native country, I have come face to face with a culture shock which will feature in my blog.
