 | | Lloyd Webber and Rice continued to collaborate and later produced Jesus Christ Superstar (1970) and Evita (1976), both of which were released as albums before being brought to the stage and later to film. | | | Andrew Lloyd Webber, Baron Lloyd-Webber (born 22 March 1948) is a highly successful British composer of musical theatre. | | | Lloyd Webber defied convention by writing the score to existing lyrics by a deceased author, rather than having a living collaborator provide the words. |

| | Andrew Lloyd Webber's 'Memory' Book (washingtonpost.com) |
| | Lloyd Webber's music is often labeled derivative, which is somewhat beside the point; musical theater has thrived as a parasitic form for nearly 100 years. | | | Still, "The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber" is for the most part a gratifyingly lush and full-bodied sampling of the man's songbook, thanks to authoritative renditions of the trademark songs by the likes of Hugh Panaro and Alice Ripley, and the pleasingly robust accompaniment of the 32-piece Opera House Orchestra. | | | The lyrics of a Lloyd Webber song are rarely the point, anyway. |

| | Review of The Woman In White by Andrew Lloyd Webber 2004 |
| | The music is typical Andrew Lloyd Webber and so does have echoes and refrains from previous compositions, but it is still one of his most enchanting scores. | | | The Woman in White may not be as good as some of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s earlier musicals, nevertheless it is still one of the most exciting dramatic new musicals to open in the West End in recent years. | | | None the less the music as you come to expect from Andrew Lloyd Webber is thrilling and moving. |

| | This, by the way, is one of Sir Andrew's most important contributions to the album, although I don't remember who wrote the lyrics. | | | Andrew actually takes classical motives and dresses them up as 'rock' statements, bringing a whole new dimension to classical music which, unfortunately, was never really improved upon or even followed seriously. | | | Whoever would want to argue that by 1982, Sir Andrew's talent was all but washed-up will have to face the obvious - judging by Broadway standards, there are lots of cool melodies on here. |
