Who is the composer Howard Ashman worked with on his musical released in 1982?
Little Shop of Horrors (musical) Little Shop of Horrors is a horror comedy rock musical, by composer Alan Menken and writer Howard Ashman, about a hapless florist shop worker who raises a plant that feeds on human blood and flesh. The musical is based on the low-budget 1960 black comedy film "The Little Shop of Horrors". The music, composed by Menken in the style of early 1960s rock and roll, doo-wop and early Motown, includes several well-known tunes, including the title song, "Skid Row (Downtown)", "Somewhere That's Green", and "Suddenly, Seymour".
Manhattan (soundtrack) Manhattan is the original motion picture soundtrack to Woody Allen's 1979 American romantic comedy-drama film, "Manhattan", composed by George Gershwin. It was performed by the New York Philharmonic under Zubin Mehta and the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra under Michael Tilson Thomas. The soundtrack works supremely well with the film and is equally effective without the film. Sony BMG Music Entertainment released the soundtrack in 1979. It was nominated for Best Soundtrack in the 33rd British Academy Film Awards.
