Lin-Manuel Miranda has created a work of art which is at the same time historical fiction, a Broadway musical, and a concept rap album. And it's full of hidden complexities. Dozens of references to other musicals and rap songs, the choice of melodies and instruments (thanks to the great Alex Lacamoire) for each character, and most of all, an innovative and beautiful use of Wagner's leitmotiv technique.

There are many many Hamilton leitmotiv lists online, but my favourite one it this website: https://visualhamiltonmusical.wordpre... . Check it out.
