WALT DISNEY RECORDS TO RELEASE ENCHANTED ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK ON NOVEMBER 20!

(November 2, 2007- Burbank, CA) – Walt Disney Records will release the soundtrack for the new part animated, part live-action, movie musical, Enchanted, on November 20, 2007. The recording features songs by Academy Award Winners Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz with original score by Menken. Amy Adams and James Marsden (Princess Giselle and Prince Edward in the film) perform four tracks on the CD. Recording artists Carrie Underwood and Jon McLaughlin each perform a song.

Multi-platinum recording artist Carrie Underwood performs the final song “Ever Ever After,” produced by Mark Bright. Says Underwood, “It’s actually one of the more difficult songs I’ve sung, but it’s really cute and it’s really fun, and it fits so well with the movie.” The song also gave Underwood the opportunity to team up again with video director Roman White, who has directed 6 of her videos including “Before He Cheats,” “Jesus Take the Wheel,” and current hit “So Small.”

Though Underwood has been responsible for many memorable songs since winning American Idol, she acknowledges that there is something about recording a song for a Disney film that truly makes you timeless. She describes, “It’s really amazing to think that someday kids will know all the words to this song – just like I know the words to a lot of other Disney songs that have become classics.”

Walt Disney Pictures presents Enchanted in theaters on November 21, 2007. The Enchanted Original Soundtrack will be available November 20, 2007.
