Stages (Deluxe Edition)

Multi-platinum recording artist Josh Groban will release a new album, entitled STAGES on April 24th, 2015, via Reprise Records. The album is a collection of some of the greatest musical theatre songs of all time, which Groban describes as “gorgeously arranged songs that have stood the test of time,” and which he was drawn to because of their combination of “incredible melody with an incredible story.” STAGES features three duets: Kelly Clarkson is featured on ‘All I Ask of You’ (“she can, quite simply, do anything”); Audra McDonald sings on ‘If I Loved You’ (“in my head I heard her on this and to sing it in the room with her was a dream come true”); and trumpeter Chris Botti plays on ‘Old Devil Moon’ (“he plays with such control and expressiveness”). “All of these duets have great meaning to me and I’m honoured to have them on this album,” Groban says.
