Poll: Best Broadway* Cast Recording of 2024?

Choose your favorite Broadway cast recording of 2024* from among the 16 in the poll below, listed alphabetically. More on each album in links at bottom.

*Two of the albums are not of Broadway shows at all, but they are of irrefutable interest to Broadway listeners – “Here We Are,” the cast recording of Stephen Sondheim’s finall musical, which ran at The Shed, which is not a Broadway theater, and “The Warriors,” a concept album by Lin-Manuel Miranda and Eisa Davis, which was not in any theater.

**Death Becomes Her has released only four tracks of a cast recording that will not be fully released until 2025.

I included several cast recordings that were released in 2024 of musicals that opened in 2023. I also left out several musicals that opened on Broadway in 2024, because their cast recordings are of previous productions, or are not released yet (or may never be.) These include (but are not limited to):


Maybe Happy Ending
Sunset Blvd
Tammy Faye
Swept Away

Feel free to write one of these into the “Other” slot. (If enough people choose an “other” album, I’ll add it to the poll.)
