Wicked fans can now relive the magic of Thursday night’s NBC TV special with the release of the official soundtrack, which dropped at midnight.
Recorded live at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, Wicked: One Wonderful Night (Live) – The Soundtrack features performances from stars including Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, Jeff Goldblum, Bowen Yang, Ethan Slater and Marissa Bode.
The album includes 10 live recordings of iconic Wicked numbers such as Defying Gravity, Popular and The Wizard And I, all accompanied by a 37-piece orchestra conducted by Stephen Oremus, the executive music producer of Wicked and its upcoming sequel, Wicked: For Good.
“From Broadway to the big screen, Wicked has become a global cultural phenomenon, celebrating friendship, courage, and the power of standing up against injustice,” the production team said. The new live soundtrack honours that legacy, offering a collection that bridges generations of fans and captures the emotional heartbeat of one of the world’s most beloved musicals.
Earlier, NBC broadcast the two-hour concert special, giving fans their first chance to watch Grande and Erivo perform What Is This Feeling? alongside several other Wicked classics live.
The spectacle and its soundtrack are expected to build excitement for Wicked: For Good, which hits cinemas on 21 November, accompanied by its own soundtrack, also releasing the same day. Pre-orders are available now.
The soundtrack is available to stream via Republic Records and Verve Records.
