Singing for pleasure

Enjoy songs from the musical Oklahoma at Redcliffe Museum, performed by the U3A choir as part of Make Music Month. Choir members learn four-part songs - soprano, alto, tenor and bass - covering a wide variety of styles. This selection is from Oklahoma, which first opened on Broadway in 1943. It was written by composer Richard Rodgers and lyricist and librettist Oscar Hammerstein II and was the first of 11 musicals written by the iconic duo. Oklahoma follows the events surrounding two love triangles in the Oklahoma Territory at the turn of the 20th century.
