Put Your Child In The Spotlight - You Oughta Be On Broadway Makes You The Broadway Sensation - Endorsed by Parenting Magazines!

Put Your Child In The Spotlight - You Oughta Be On Broadway Makes You The Broadway Sensation - Endorsed by Parenting Magazines! NEW YORK, Nov. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Do you remember singing your favorite song into your hairbrush, dancing around your room, pretending you were on stage? Or putting on a play for your family? The new CD, "You Oughta be on Broadway!" allows you and the young girl in your life to experience all that, with full orchestral back-up! For the child who is too old for nursery rhymes, but too young for today's popular music, "You Oughta Be On Broadway! They Sing, You Sing! A Richard Rodgers Collection for Ladies of All Ages" is available at http://www.yououghtabe.com/ . "The reaction has been amazing," says producer Jackie Presti. "Some things geared to young people can be annoying. It's listenable for people of all ages!" The CD features 12 hit songs from such top Richard Rodgers Broadway productions as "Carousel," "The Sound of Music" and "South Pacific" with leading singers from Broadway with full musical backup. The CD also features the same 12 songs, without the lead vocal, but with the same musical backup. All of the lyrics are printed in the booklet so you can sing and read along. The Dallas Morning News says "All you need is the spotlight." Georgia Family Magazine says "With 12 famous songs like 'My Favorite Things' (Sound of Music) and 'Ten Minutes Ago' (Cinderella), children will be well on their way to singing their hearts out." "Since I've been teaching, I have a real interest in exposing kids to uplifting music ... If you have musical kids, it's only fair to expose them to high quality music," says Presti. "You Oughta Be on Broadway" was named a Parenting Pick by Parenting Magazine and a Preferred Choice Award by Creative Child Magazine. Jackie Presti is an accomplished singer, musician, conductor, and teacher. She recruited her friends, Broadway veterans and their children to participate in the project. Featured on the CD are Jackie Presti plus, Tony nominees Liz Callaway, Penny Fuller, and Sally Mayes, and Samantha Lina Ruvolo (5 year-old daughter of Jackie Presti, and the inspiration for this recording), and other stars of the stage. "You Oughta Be on Broadway," $15.99, is available in stores or online including http://www.yououghtabe.com/ .
