The Jazz Age is my favorite genre of music and the 1920's is my ABSOLUTE favorite time in history. And Randy Newman's songs and score are so well put together! Disney's renaissance era(The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin, etc.) would be so proud, in terms of music.

Set in New Orleans at the turn of the century, and loosely based on the classic fairytale The Frog Prince by the Brothers Grimm, it tells the tale of Prince Naveen, who travels to the Big Easy in search of fun and jazz music, but who is cursed by the evil witch doctor Facilier, and turned into a frog.

Desperate for answers, Naveen and Tiana journey deep into the bayou to search for an ancient voodoo priestess who may be the only one who can help...
The Princess and the Frog is notable for several reasons. Firstly, it is directed by John Musker and Ron Clements, who previously helmed The Little Mermaid and Aladdin...Read more 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: By M. Linden (California) - See all my reviews This review is from: The Princess and the Frog (Audio CD) This is a fabulous soundtrack to a fantastic movie! I got it as a gift for Christmas after seeing the movie a few weeks ago and I cannot stop listening to it! Even my dad loves it, though he hasn't seen the movie yet. The song styles are all very different, my favorites being "Down in New Orleans" and "When We're Human". This CD just makes make me want to dance! |
