Opening number where Queen Vashti violates the king’s command
Finding male singers to play the king and also his servants
Sage Advice
Wise men advise the king what to do
Recording this now and finding a male singer who can improvise ragas and sing in that flavour
Someone Better Than She
King’s servants propose to gather young women so the king will have a new queen
Finalizing the lyrics and melody of the parts before and after the chorus
Time and Chance
Esther calms a situation where a few of the women were sad about being carried away from their homes. She singings a song about how time and chance happens to all, foreshadowing the plot of the whole story actually.
Day After Day
Mordecai, Esther, Hegai, and the king lament the uncertain times during the search for a new queen.
Choruses’ lyrics and melody are structured well, but verses need a lot of work. Might even be split into 2 or 3 songs depending on how this progress, as this is like a “montage” song which tells the events of 3 to 4 years.
On Smule now to look for singers by creating duets of songs from The Prince of Egypt and Les Miserables. Follow us there! Haha: https://www.smule.com/biblethemusical
Will be designing a page on this site dedicated to the musical which will display the profiles of everyone involved in this project!
Going to start some fundraisers in order to hire more musicians to arrange and record parts for the songs and also to cover costs.
