Encanto is the musical ensemble from Disney's 2021 animated film of the same name. The group is essentially the fictional Madrigal family brought to life through song, with each character's musical number reflecting their personality and role within the household. The soundtrack became a cultural phenomenon, particularly with the breakout hit 'We Don't Talk About Bruno,' which spent weeks at the top of charts in multiple countries.
The music blends Colombian folk traditions with contemporary Broadway and pop sensibilities, featuring instruments like the accordion, harp, and various percussion. Songs like 'Família Madrigal' introduce the magical family, while 'Dos Oruguitas' offers a more melancholic, traditional ballad. The ensemble approach means different characters take lead vocals throughout the album, creating a varied but cohesive collection tied to the film's narrative about family expectations and hidden gifts.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
