Product Information

Brought down to earth by a solid farmyard grounding of reality and humour, Grunt promises to entertain and inspire. Grunt is music-packed; the musical score is a fusion of semi-operatic and rock styles that will thrill your audiences, and challenge your gifted vocalists and musicians.

With hints of Les Miserables mixed with Tommy, the songs and musical arrangements utilize the rich timbres of vibrant vocal soloists, gutsy choruses, and deliciously evil singing “nasties”. What a great opportunity for your orchestra to perform “outside the norm”, and close the gap between your classical and contemporary musicians with a truly inspirational collaboration. The music travels through a number of challenging keys and time signatures, but will showcase both your strong vocal and instrumental programs, and extend your students at the same time – not to mention “wow”ing every audience member with your students’ talent! This faithful, emotive adaptation promises to be as popular and enduring a classic as the original novel itself which, after fifty years, is still recommended reading in high schools. No basic set change required.
