A Whole New WorldComposer: Alan Menken

Tomoya Nakamura and Haruka Kinoshita perform Aladdin’s theme song “A Whole New World” live! Reveal Event Part 1

This is the theme song from Disney’s classic Aladdin, which also received a live-action adaptation in 2019! The composer, Alan Menken, has worked on the music for many Disney films.

This song plays during a romantic scene where Aladdin and Princess Jasmine ride a flying magic carpet through the beautiful Arabian Night sky.

Just like in the movie, it’s of course perfect for a male-female duet, but even same-gender pairs can fully immerse themselves in its romantic atmosphere! Since it’s a well-known classic, it might be fun to skip assigning parts and have everyone sing along together.
