There Is a Curious Paradox
accompaniment track from The Fantasticks
“There Is a Curious Paradox” is the thoughtful, ironic duet from The Fantasticks, sung by Matt and Luisa as they grapple with the contradictions of love, growth, and emotional maturity. Balancing restraint with quiet intensity, the song reflects the show’s central theme—that love deepens through experience and loss. This professionally produced accompaniment track features intimate, expressive orchestration and clear cueing, making it ideal for auditions, rehearsals, recitals, and performances. It provides performers with a polished, reliable musical foundation for one of the musical’s most reflective and emotionally nuanced moments, with music by Harvey Schmidt and lyrics by Tom Jones.
