With 8 won Oscars - all at Disney movies - Alan Menken is one of the best decorated film music composers of all time. Together with his partner Howard Ashman Aladdin-we owe him so timeless good scores like The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast. Also Aladdin is definitely an outstanding work. Menken-Ashman hit just perfect different styles and combine in a round work. There are clear oriental nuances, moments where one is reminded of old Hollywood movies from the 40s and 50s with the 1001 Nights theme, but also the numbers 1: 1 have musical or sound class time to jazz. If you like variety, great songs, the will not be bored here.
