The Spring Awakening: Original Cast Recording (20th Anniversary Edition) captures Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater's landmark musical at its rawest. Recorded in the months following the show's Off-Broadway run at the Atlantic Theater Company and released days before its Broadway debut, much of it was laid down in Sheik's own home studio, locking in early arrangements and performances that never made it to later pressings. The show went on to win eight Tony Awards including Best Musical and launched the careers of Lea Michele, Jonathan Groff, and John Gallagher Jr.
