The comprehensive analysis, conducted using audio data from Spotify, focused on musicals ranging from timeless West End staples like Les Miserables [https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/les-miserables-tickets] and The Phantom of the Opera [https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/phantom-of-the-opera-tickets] to recent Broadway phenomena such as Hamilton [https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/hamilton-west-end-tickets] and Six . The goal: to establish a measurable "blueprint" of the archetypal musical song.
Quantifying the Sound of the Stage
By evaluating 10 core audio features-danceability, energy, valence, speechiness, liveness, acousticness, tempo, key, mode, and time signature, the study offers a quantifiable profile of the common musical structure across these productions. Each metric was measured on a scale from 0 to 100 to allow comparative analysis across all selected tracks.
The findings revealed that while many songs adhered to a recognizable pattern, a number of the most streamed musical tracks diverged significantly. This subset exhibited five distinct differences in their data profiles, providing a fresh perspective on what may make a song particularly memorable or emotionally impactful.
Expert Insight into Musical Trends
"Theatre has always balanced tradition with innovation, and our research shows how data can help us understand that blend," said Lorenzo Sergi, PR Account Executive at Digital Trails. "By mapping out the structure of beloved songs, we're not only celebrating musical theatre's greatest hits but also equipping creators and fans with a new lens through which to appreciate them."
Implications for Musical Composition and Theatre Research
The research adds a valuable layer to ongoing discussions in theatre research and composition studies, offering a unique angle on what makes top musical songs resonate with global audiences. It also contributes to broader conversations around the evolution of musical theatre in both West End and Broadway traditions.
