Mikem said: “ Someone please correct me if I am off-base, but I think that the "new" material has to be more than 50% of the score by time, not by song. So a dance break counts as "new" material, and I think underscore might also. So I think it is entirely possible that NY, NY has a new score as far as the Tonys go. The producers know the rule and will time things down to the second if it's close. I think we'll have to wait for an official ruling.”
I’ve arranged several Broadway musicals, and I’ve never heard of this! But it’s amusing to imagine a situation where dance music and incidental music are added to make a show eligible for a best score Tony nomination. |
