New York, NY (October 20, 2026) – Concord Theatricals Recordings is proud to announce the release of two new editions of RAGTIME (2025 BROADWAY CAST RECORDING) – 4” Tiny Vinyl and a Dolby Atmos digital remix. Both album variants will be available on Friday, November 20.

The 4” collectible record, pressed in Transparent Ruby vinyl, features two beloved songs from Lincoln Center Theater’s four-time Tony Award^®-winning musical revival, Ragtime. The miniature record holds two songs, one on each side: “Make Them Hear You” and “Back to Before,” performed by Tony Award^® winners Joshua Henry and Caissie Levy respectively – and plays on most turntables. Tiny Vinyl is now available for pre-order exclusively at concordtheatricalsrecordings.com and Creative Goods.

Named one of Fast Company’s 2026 Most Innovative Companies, Tiny Vinyl has established a new take on physical music, combining the appeal of collectible formats with the resurgence of vinyl. The 4” records, packaged in a mini gatefold, offer a pocket-sized way for fans to enjoy physical music, with each release produced as a numbered, limited-edition to the same manufacturing standards as a traditional 12” vinyl.

Ragtime (2025 Broadway Cast Recording) in Dolby Atmos offers an immersive listening experience, transporting fans into the world of the acclaimed Broadway production. Engineers Ian Kagey and Oscar Zambrano worked with the album producers to create a stunning new Dolby Atmos mix that brings the performances and storytelling to life in new ways.

Dolby Atmos is a completely different way to create and experience music that delivers artistic expression at its fullest capacity. Forging a deeper connection between artists and their fans, Dolby Atmos goes beyond ordinary listening experiences by putting listeners inside their favorite song, revealing every detail with unparalleled clarity and depth. Beginning November 20, listeners can enjoy the Dolby Atmos version of Ragtime on select streaming platforms, including Apple Music, TIDAL, and Amazon Music.

Ragtime is the sweeping musical adaptation of E. L. Doctorow’s classic novel that follows three fictional families in pursuit of the American Dream at the dawn of the 20th Century: Black pianist Coalhouse Walker, Jr. and his beloved Sarah, Jewish immigrant Tateh and his little girl, and a wealthy white family led by matriarch Mother. All grasping for the same dream, if only they can hold onto it.

Featuring a Tony Award®-winning score by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, Tony Award®-winning book by Terrence McNally, and Tony Award®-winning orchestrations by William David Brohn, Ragtime weaves fictional narratives with real historical figures and events, creating a rich tapestry that blurs the line between personal struggle and national identity, making history feel both intimate and epic. The 2025 Broadway production was directed by Lincoln Center Theater’s Kewsong Lee Artistic Director Lear deBessonet.

The album is produced by GRAMMY® Award winner Sean Patrick Flahaven and four-time GRAMMY® nominees Ahrens and Flaherty. The album was recorded, edited, and mixed by GRAMMY® winner Ian Kagey and mastered by GRAMMY® winner Oscar Zambrano with art direction by Derek Bishop.

The album features the Ragtime 2025 Broadway revival’s original cast members including Tony Award® winner Joshua Henry, Tony Award® winner, Olivier^® and Grammy^® nominee Caissie Levy, and Tony Award® winner Brandon Uranowitz, Colin Donnell, Nichelle Lewis, Ben Levi Ross, Tony Award® winner Shaina Taub, Anna Grace Barlow, John Clay III, Rodd Cyrus, Nick Barrington and Tabitha Lawing, as well as Nicholas Barrón, Lauren Blackman, Allison Blackwell, Briana Carlson-Goodman, Jordan Chin, Eean Sherrod Cochran, Billy Cohen, Kerry Conte, Rheaume Crenshaw, Ellie Fishman, Jason Forbach, Nick Gaswirth, Ta’Nika Gibson, Jackson Parker Gill, David Jennings, Kaleb Johnson, Marina Kondo, Morgan Marcell, Kane Emmanuel Miller, Jenny Mollet, Tom Nelis, Kent Overshown, Kayla Pecchioni, John Rapson, Matthew Scott, Ellie May Sennett, Deandre Sevon, Jacob Keith Watson, and Alan Wiggins.

ABOUT TINY VINYL

Named one of Fast Company’s 2026 Most Innovative Companies, Tiny Vinyl has established a new take on physical music, combining the appeal of collectible formats with the resurgence of vinyl. The 4” records offer a pocket-sized way for fans to enjoy physical music, with each release produced as a numbered, limited-edition to the same manufacturing standards as a traditional 12” vinyl. All Tiny Vinyl records are made from 100% bio-attributed vinyl and use approximately one-tenth of the material of a standard 12” record, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and waste. Each Tiny Vinyl sale counts as two tracks sold, meaning five records equal one album sale and are eligible for Billboard and RIAA chart certification.

Tiny Vinyl was founded by Kohler and Mann, who saw an opportunity at the intersection of vinyl’s resurgence and the popularity of miniature collectibles. The pair partnered with Nashville Record Pressing, an acclaimed Nashville-based vinyl manufacturer and subsidiary of GZ Media, to develop the format. After releasing Tiny Vinyl records with a handful of Nashville artists, the company expanded the concept for a broader audience.
