Production

The Broadway show opened on March 26, 1964, at the Winter Garden Theater, and the cast album was recorded in a one-day session in early April, then released one week later by Capitol Records. Streisand performs twelve of the album's seventeen tracks, and the album marked the first time a Streisand recording was not released through Columbia. Streisand was already a successful singer at the time, with her prior three studio albums charting in the Billboard top 10.
