Hard to say, because the German translation falls against the Broadway original from only minimal. Rarely has a more minimalist performance was staged powerful, which also has repercussions on the soundtrack - which is known to be without the visual experience. Although you should not have seen the show, you can empathize with immediately in the lives of the younger generation in today's New York while listening - your struggle for survival in the urban jungle between love, violence, drugs, a notorious shortage of money and AIDS. Hard material for a musical. But precisely because so emotional and honest. The pieces are full of power and the artist formally tear. A "must have" in the CD shelf.
