Welcome to sixty minutes presents tonight front row. Seats for extraordinary musical performance is both on broadway and in rome.

Thirty, seven year old men well miranda is collecting a ward writing acting in song. Writing the same hard work that led to his masterpiece. We originally broadcast his story. Sixteen months ago, shortly after opening night on Broadway tonight, you'll see an expanded verge

That includes more of the remarkable performances and more about hamilton himself. Who was one of the most brilliant figures in american history. The thing that hamilton is he spoke in paragraphs and so the opening, since our show. Is this crazy run on sent it? How does a bastard orphan son of gore and a scotsman dropped in the middle of a forgotten spot in the caribbean by providence, impoverished and color comma grow up to be a hero in the scholar. That's the question. We're gonna end. the next two hours and forty five minutes patiently waiting expectation every actual hamilton. The answers come back from a big task. To my shot is the shows anthem as Hamilton the new york city during the american revolution and see

he's his opportunity to be the white, my shop, which hamiltons, hamilton's big. I want song but took you u care, because every couplet needed to be the best couplet. I ever wrote That's how up that's how seriously I was taking it hamilton demands lots from you. Yes, I mean he's calling on your best, he's call on my best because he's the smartest guy in the room, so I have to write for irrespective of the smart guy, in the room when the other people former jefferson and washington, and very smart guys trust me with the command hamilton was front and center at nearly every major event. In early american history, man, the man is not. He never became president, but had a bigger in

back then many who did I tell you what I wish his mentor was. George Washington played here by Chris Jackson, who pluck tangled now the ranks, and rely on him. For twenty years but it did, the digs originated the role of Thomas jefferson, hamilton's primary pull cool opponent of an apparently basically miss the lay a moment on show reflects miranda's, broad, musical taste, but here pop unwrapped define your music is upon your music his rap yes, and I also believe that that form is uniquely. Did you tell hamilton story because It has more words per measure that any musical genre. It has rhythm, and it has density and of hamilton at anything in his right,

It was his density only job at the barrier. My mother had not none other than the one. In the gap in new york, miranda wrote this for hamilton sister in law, workers schuyler laid by renee elite. Very in hamilton, women get equal time. the idea to cast black and latino actors to play the founders was deliberate. Verandah wanted to connect. America then

america now hamilton blossom during an extended run at new york's public theater and was greeted with fireworks over the hudson. When it opened on broadway, I come up here and opening number the show has already reached the loftiest heights in sixteen months at the rigid rogers theatre, Hamilton has established itself as broadway's impossible ticket with premium seat selling for nearly a thousand dollars each and those lucky enough to get and never know who might be next to them. The president of the united states had our sixth preview, the vice president of the united states. Yes, it's put my dreams to shame its super

super humbling and when you release those boys, phase names and have come to see the show see those as an opportunity to see the show with fresh eyes one doing it. When did she sitting the audience. I think what is he thinking when? here's, the lyric history, has its eyes on you, you know when the present is here. What is she thinking? As he sees George Washington say I have to step down, so the country can move on. Hamilton was a complicated figure war, hero famous philanderer political thinker, mudslinging politician and the nations first treasury secretary. It creates the first fiscal system.

monetary system first customer service first central bank on and on and on the rhine, churn out, wrote the biography that inspired the musical and is this shows historical adviser. Here's the story of a penniless orphaned, emigrant kid who comes out of nowhere and sets the world on fire and achievements were absolutely monumental. You say he came out of nowhere. Where is nowhere? he was born on the island of neighbours. He spent his adolescence on saint, cried his Other abandoned the family when Alexander was eleven, his mother died when he was thirteen when he came to north america, he didn't know us This is inward. This is where I grew up for supplying dominoes industry. The it is Dora miranda could relate to his father, graduated colleges, eighteen the porter rico and moved to manhattan, luis miranda became a prominent political consultant. His wipe lose

a psychologist loose and I we we have all is known that this kid was destined for, greatness He's looking down by only concern was always is, is great news gonna come with money, so survive for rapid. When did you see the musical talent always from the time? He was tiny. He loved to sing. He was always creating any loved words and songs five miranda tested in two hundred college elementary school for highly gifted children, where he told us. Sometimes he felt like he did not belong. You know I went to school for everyone. A smarter than me I am not alone smoke. Might I was surrounded by genius genius kids, what interesting about growing up in a culture like that? Is you go right? I gotta figure out what my thing is:

result smarter than these kids, I'm not funny or the half of them. So I better figure out what it is. I want to do and work really hard at that and because intellectually and treading water too, to be here. So why do you think I'm sitting here talking to you and not sitting here. Talking about your classmates pick a lane, and I started, running ahead of the opposition and that's the honest answer it was. I was like this. This was theatre. He was in practically every who play this is absurd, is really where we grew up. As the family have a lot of money to see broadway shows, but they did collect, cast albums and a random them camelot. Follow me the last month of may last month of may of the word play. If you made we need to the fair you'll, thrashing bathroom all smash and mash him. You'll know he will be You will be rubble. If ever I would leave you, it would not beans.

time knowing how, in spring, I wouldn't mind How can you have so many songs in your head? yeah? Well, these worrying really anything else in your head. I mean No, my social security number have graduated from western university in two thousand to with a degree in theatre arts. That's where he began working on it. Oh about his own neighbours about everybody got everybody got it turned into. and his first broadway show in the heights won the two thousand and eight tony for best musical two months later, he picked up ron chernow book during a vacation. What I knew from high school, I knew Hamilton died in a dual with the vice president. I knew he was on the ten dollar bill. But really I just was browsing the biography section. It could have been truman and, as you read it, what happened? I was thunderstruck. I got to the part where, in a hurricane dust

Boise, ST saint or hamilton living any rights, a poem about the carnage and this poem gets him off the island? You saw a rap artist in him, ass, I drew a direct line between here tins writing his way out of his circumstances and the rapporteur. a grown up adoring, it's a big. And jesse writing about growing up in the marshy projects in brooklyn, its eminem writing about growing up white. In Detroit its eating about that struggle, and, paradoxically, you're, writing being so good. It gets you out. I'm thrill, The white house called me nine months after reading the book, he was invited to the white house to perform song, from in the heights, he decided to take a risk and actually working on a hip, hop album. The concept album, but the life of someone, I think, embodies hip hop treasury secretary,

Alexander Hamilton, you laugh, but it's true. So when you did it and you look at the video now as it terrified young porter Egon man, Terrified, because there's leader, the free world, newly elected leader, the free world, isn t family there's bible the ten dollar founded father. Without a thought I got as he began the story. The room was mesmerized, because in the costs in committee, suicide left him nothing but really proud something. No one sided alex. You gotta, think figure, selfies daughter, retrieving the memory and nothing left to do for some one. Less still, he would have been destitute without the central restitutions. Confer was late, landmark, join issue that videos a microcosm of my entire hamilton experience. I say hip hop alexander hamilton, everyone laughs

and by the end, or not laugh because there in it, because they ve been sucked in The story, just like I got sucked into the store The minutes away away. Miranda's gift is bringing back story to today's audiences remain them home to thank for building this nation. when the immigrants we get. The job done a lot of ways in right. If you're scared of your pop or you thought hip hop was not used, for you. We're gonna give you king george, who sings british invasion style song from the sixties. That's a show stop or to its a show stopper, and it's a breath

price, is not a price that you're willing to the british king played here by jonathan graphics, scoffs at the columnist in european immigrant trying to go it alone. You'll be dead, you see, you remember, you belong to me Then man that I see you, sir. I m pious. We see each other through its wits. Interesting about that role, and I didn't even really anticipated when I was writing it. The king, comes the audiences surrogate as they watch this country being formed in front of their eyes and a king gos wait. You really gonna keep changing leaders, wait. What do you mean?

Do now that the war is over, you gonna come back, you'll be back and he speaks to the country as if it was a girlfriend Didn t well mammals to remind you of my love, that that, Not that I think the secret source of this show is that I carefully the stories. True. if such an improbable an amazing story, and I learned about it. While I was writing it and I think enthusiasm, is baked into the recipe

a new pie, gas network, featuring radio and tv personalities, talking business, sports, tack, entertainment and more players at play died in a year and a half ago, The broadway musical hamilton struck like a cultural earthquake, shaking up the worlds of theatre music in american history all at the same time, it even seems to have altered our money after the treasury department scrap plans to remove alexander Hamilton s face from the ten dollar bill. The man responsible is men, well, miranda who, along with the rest of the original cast, has moved on while the show lives on in this encore presentation. Our story on the musical will show you how miranda took stories from history and made them accessible to today's audience. I think we great pains to knock all these guys. Author popularity do. This is washington impatient and yelling. Are these the men

which I am to defend america, which he did ass. He was laying new york. That's a quote. This is jefferson and hamilton squabbling table the tenor of their politics will sound familiar to hamiltons debate with jefferson over how to pay The revolutionary war debt was so intense miranda, ages it as a rapid battle are maybe with washington as referee in Virginia we plant seeds in the ground we create you just want to move our money around. This financial plan is an outrageous demand. That is too many. Damn pages for any man to understand. With me in the land of the pray, pray to god, we never see hamilton's candidacy, look where british tax on tea. We got frisky imagine going to happen when you try to tax our whisky. Thank you secretary, jefferson, thomas

it was a real nice declaration block until the present we're running a real nation. Would you like to join us or stay in battle? Can wear whatever the hell? It is you're doing monticello a civics lesson from a slave or hey neighbor. The debts are paid because you don't pay for labor the south. We create a cheap way and we know who's really doing the planting and another hamilton's combative. Nature made him monumental enemies, including presidents Adams, Jefferson madison and monroe all downplayed hamilton's achievements and diminished. His legacy. the only one to fare worse in the eyes of history, was Hamilton's killer. Vice president aaron burr miranda, him. A starring role bear becomes you're narrative is because you need, but what I mean, islands, I'm hamilton, would be happy to narrate its own story in paragraphs in paragraphs, our higher gas and also bird

is the mirror image of hamilton he's also orphaned at a young age, needs through college speaker. Principally, two years starts at thirteen. Each thirteen, just martyrs, hamilton just as smart as hamilton, but Time Hamilton says: go Bertha, stop he's just cost doesn't hesitate. Bird was originally laid by leslie autumn june thinks takes and it takes keeps winning and marine explores the rivalry between burned, hamilton, from friends to competitors, to political rivals, in one song they finally become enemies one of the reasons why it happened.

happens was the toughest jigsaw puzzle. I've ever done a puzzle explaining how hammer on jefferson and madison, made a bow the kneel to move the. U s. Capital from new york city they to washington, d c in seventeen. Ninety in the musical, this becomes the final straw the man leaped out that knows enclosure. I me was trying to explain very complicated compromise that happened behind closed doors and what exciting in the context of our story. Is we're tell you from the perspective of the one guy who wasn't there ehrenberg, he says: he's got this treaty, We, the capital of our country, change for an unprecedented financial plan and all happened over a dinner. None of us we're at none of us at any

in the decision, a room where it up in the room where it happens, the years, the story of burr and hamilton was hidden away in places like this. The new york, historical society a library it holds many of their original writings. This is historian ron churn out research. The biography that inspired moraine When my memoranda, I think, with smart enough to know that the best way to dramatize the story was to stick as close to the facts as possible. You want violence, this violence and the

thanks to this section is directly ones. How are they are our industry? This has all the ingredients, including the story of hamilton's political downfall. It began with a year, long affair with a young woman, name, mariah rentals and it turned into the nations first bonafide sex scandal. I think that what makes the whole story so bizarre and unbelievable is third hamilton ended up paying well money to mister reynolds and this at a time when hamilton was not just the treasury secretary, but he was effectively like the prime minister of Washington's government, so he was the most powerful man in the government when he was exposed hamilton did something. No one expected. He confessed everything. He rode a ninety five page, a pamphlet, but even his closest friends thought that a delicately were in paragraph two would have done. The ad hoc tribunals. Does I made a mistake and that would have done

alexander hamilton, had a torrid affair and you wrote it down right there in the show miranda uses hamilton's own words from what became known as the reynolds pamphlet then, how do the real scandal was one big reason. There was never a president hamilton made these dead wife as masons do a bunch be no black and brown people here that makes sense? In the context of our time, without music we spoke fall with some up miranda's, most important collaborators. For my cast members. Less

The item junior renee, Elise goes bury, did they digs fella pursue and Chris Jackson? What is that What are you hearing? What is it that resonating in these audiences, which so many different things happen. In the story that it's almost impossible to peg. I think it's just the music words, just the movement towards a light or its the stage of it could be any number of those things all of those things. These are good female rose to my ass. They were the things that's exciting to me about playing Angelica, schuyler and feeling so powerful and knowing that, like in the time that we live in with you know, hilary running for president. We get to show founding mothers are what they did and they were not just sewing flax, they were actually the muse like Angelica schuyler was to thomas jefferson into hamilton debate you sit, it gives you something you didn't have before. Ownership of your own history, yeah. I mean

is the only time I've ever felt, particularly american is in the last legs eight months that I've been working. this hamilton came back to life at a time when politics and immigration, where the hottest topics in america, but it was miranda riding on this- that made it a juggernaut when you write, then told you right and in a bit sad tears come your eye, in the moment to express yourself here. I think I think of acting in writing is pretty much. The same thing all about getting inside the skin of your characters and see where they are and knowing what how they have grown up. You have to know what this like in your bones, what they ve come up against, who they are, and then you just are talking as them. a new right until the rust comes out of the false it and its clear water and the right of the clear water is a clear waters, affection at the end of that. Well, it's the stuff that feels true. The bullet hit him.

Finally, on the right side, just most people already know how the story of Alexander Hamilton ends. He died and eight no for a dual with their unburned. We hawk and new jersey by then bird was a lame duck. Vice president hamilton, just shy of its fiftieth birthday was practising law that up dueling revolved around you're protecting your item, but here you, two men do not ordinary politicians. They have a lot to lose period to a politicians with their careers in decline, who thought that they would establish their courage and manhood on the dual. The great bird was feeling very. Very frustrated seem like at every turn. Alexander Hamilton was there a blocking his path, p rights in a letter before the door. He said there was no way this could have been avoided. We ve been circulated therefore, while I was always going to come to this, this was gonna happen. Issues can therefore the mentally different men and they,

running concentric circles until they meet thing around them is moving, but miranda and directed tommy kale state the intensifying rivalry between the two men political rights is really the turntable was essential how's. The proportion of the show to continue to continue this insistence, movement that Hamilton had in his life- I imagine just feels more like a memory, many story and including churn out, might believe Hamilton deliberately into the air, throwing way is ship it is a fatal miscalculate.

Are you really need? Somebody tells me you'd better journey at his side. We need she's a thing about it. I think Hamilton was ready to die from the time he was fourteen years old. I think what he has said. I have, which is that thing of tomorrow's, not promise I gotta get as much done as I can with not only I think it is not only good music people are saying it's transformative. It certainly changed my life, but I think it's because when great people cross our path- and I'm talking about Hamilton here, it forces us to recognise

What we're doing with our lives. You know at my age, Hamilton s, treasury secretary, and creating our financial system from scratch and building a country I wrote to place the play a new pie, gas ensuring radio and tv personalities, talking business, sports tech, entertainment and more play it at play, dot it. It is the oldest choir in the world. Evidence of it's existence dates back to the seventh century. Today it's called the sistine chapel choir, but is more commonly known as the pope's choir. That's because it said the pope side for all of the important papal celebrations. As we first reported in december, the choir performed in ST peter's basilica during the pope's christmas eve mass, the choir also sang at a private mass at the vatican honoring, the eightieth birthday of pope Francis the choir may be

according to the pope, but historically it is held concerts on its own, especially at its home base. The magnificent sistine chapel it was here, but Michelangelo's breathtaking frescoes in The world's greatest wonders where we recently attended a concert stage by the pope's choir the

music- is sacred, contemplative missed it. Sores weatherin concerted the sistine chapel during mass next door at saint petersburg? Silk when the pope presides require provides a home? Soundtrack made up of thirty boys in twenty two men, the choir help spread the pope message spiritual too, we have a job to inspire people can understand a word of what's going on in the vatican, but when they hear us singing, we have to do

them to consider something which is transcendent and divine. That's how job section of marks barometers about tone from Britain, vittoria, qatar, tee a base from ITALY in chess rate, a cardiac start at ten or from poland consider themselves more than just voices other programme. What does it mean that you call the pope's choir we are defending His family hopes them as his personal choir pope francis is the most popular poker in a generation. He spends much time tending to the poor and the dispossessed it is. Humility. That also makes his choir feel at home, as marks propolis law and when he joined last year. When I first met him, the whole thing was completely overwhelming and he said you are Let them come to the ethical and later I was expecting you know so I was so welcomes

This was very surprising and very impressed by quite well and what a personal tat she had as it tours italy performing in some of the country's great cathedrals, the choir, things in harmony: the but until recently the pope's choir was worthy of the name or the settings where it for decades the choir lack cohesion. Many members came from opera and make

sure they were heard? The choir was called the sixteenth. we members. We were aware that we were seeing into law like vittorio, protect. You remembers, error and I do mean voices activities these been with the council, but thirty years and three pope's can use for me the difference between the. Where was the way it is now, for example, we used to seeing ecole to edibles and now you're, seeing c cu to woo. It's completely different because we are looking for a very spiritual, sound. Not a meat is sound.

turned around after maestro massimo Pelham Bela was hired in two thousand ten, only the sixth man to be appointed director of the pope's choir in two hundred years. You know the little I didn't have to invent a sound. I had to rediscover a sound, which was the sound of the court, once produced in the sistine chapel. They, like a pay, less astina, Hallam Bela went back to the past combining high tech and ancient tax. He studied endlessly looking for the precise Boca rain that palestine or written intended when he wrote the sacred music that provides the bulk of the clause. Why palestrina composed his music with the sistine chapel in mine after MIKE Angelo, had finished painting his masterpiece. Palestrina was writing when the paint was still wet. Of these incredible

goes and when we sing palestrina, it's not like looking at a fresco is equivalent of being in the fresco The pelham Bela also softened the tone hardening the workload the choir went from rehearsing three hours. We to three hours a day, so you have to be a protectionist, tough for exactly right. If you are on a journey, of excellence. How far along our you on your journey, she got amateur halfway. You sound like an american sports coach, acquires a very, very terrifying beasts. Bingo, If you are not able to

dolly too It goes away. He ran this away. This is not so far is more dangerous. You have to handle the quiet, we were compare to a federal body, but you have to drive variety to do this, like a you know, like the horses, just little band, literally no very light dressage this option, not to add rehearsal, end in concert. Pelham Bela conducts the choir, like a man, a traffic, the maestro was born on, must day with, is quarries not always in a holiday move for the boys in the choir commands from the mice

can be jolting when he's not happy lorenzo Why, then, is getting it? I hear some explosions of anger, but then he comes down because then we sing the piece properly. The thirteen year old, lorenzo Malik ceo, is one of the boys of sopranos are able to produce the high notes that give the choir it's celestial sound. Just listen to how the boys warmer the the the vatican refers to them as the white voices of the purity of their sound.

The The at home, like many italian boys, their age. They have ordinary pictures on their walls and then

and there are reminders of why the boys are extra ordinary. When people ask you about the poll, what do you tell them to go to the local net? They ask us: how is the pope? Is he fun? Does he always crack jokes? We say yes, yes, it's true, so he's fun. Thirteen year old ricardo caught upon always been in the pope's choir for four years that they know, if I was singing and brought the pope I am a little anxious, but then I think that the pope does not understand anything about music. He only says how beautiful it sounds. So I continue to sing across rome audition for the choir held in the second a grades several times a year in structures fan out to see who has the right timber the, the

seven hundred boys are tested a year in all cost. It can be painstaking. Few make catch our job, only a dozen it most are selected annually. The chosen one was born during an elaborate ceremony each or given five years scholarships. Actual school in the centre of rome, they aren't starting to become priest, their curriculum runs there. Yes, they may be known as choir boys on sundays, but the rest of the week there typical boys on the cusp of their teenage years. These are hallowed times for the boys until the day arise when their voices break, and they must,

leave the pope's choir, they can return as adults, but I you're all new book Manuela fears which coming soon, what happens when you which breaks? Will that be a sad day? for me, it will be an ugly moment when the time will come in which my We will no longer be ready to sing the way we sing now fatty others such as cutting. I try to make the most of everything until the day will come in which they tell me my voices no longer good. that cantata in their remaining time with acquire their voices will join. Those of their adult brethren to bring this sounds of heaven to earn the music of the pope's. Choir speaks to the sole anymore factor. Simply did a concert and a man came up to me at the end of the concert and said that the choir that I conduct is missing
