Product Description

This vintage vinyl LP features Percy Faith and His Orchestra performing music from the Broadway production Kismet, a celebrated musical known for its lush melodies and romantic Eastern-inspired themes. Released by Columbia Records, this album captures Faith’s signature orchestral style—sweeping strings, dramatic arrangements, and polished mid-century production.

The bold illustrated cover art makes this record especially desirable for collectors of Broadway soundtracks, orchestral pop, and vintage vinyl décor. Whether played on a turntable or displayed as part-style wall or shelf décor, Kismet is a standout piece of 1950s musical history.

An excellent addition for fans of classic Broadway, mid-century orchestral recordings, or anyone curating a refined vintage vinyl collection.
