Threepenny Opera
Examples of Musical Numbers
Here is a list of musical numbers in the production (excluding reprises and instrumentals). There
is a link under each song. This is a link to the best (in my opinion)
version of each song that I can find on you tube. When I say best, I
mean the only version I can find or the version most like how I want it
to be played, so please interpret this term loosely.
Please watch the links for the songs that you're invloved with. Feel
free to use these to practice, but please be aware that there are so
many diffferent translations that the words maybe very different to the
one's we're going to use. However, the tune is always as it should be.
