One of the most enduring holiday stories, Charles Dickens’ A CHRISTMAS CAROL has been told in a multitude of ways. In 1970, a musical adaptation, starring Albert Finney and featuring music and lyrics by Leslie Bricusse (DOCTOR DOLITTLE, VICTOR/VICTORIA ), was released. It earned four Academy Award nominations, including “Best Original Score and Best Original Song “Thank You Very Much”.
Though SCROOGE proved to be a perennial favorite and two decades later was launched as a musical, the soundtrack has never been released on CD or digitally. BSX Records producer Ford A. Thaxton turned to composer Dominik Hauser to reimagine the soundtrack.
