Free Music Review: An Evening with Sondheim
Hit: 5 Stars
This is an excellent compilation of songs, both well and not so well known, which is performed by a first rate cast of performers. This 1983 concert features great vocals with minimal though effective accompaniment. In my opinion, Liz Callaway gives a definitive version of "What More Do I Need?" (Saturday Night) and "The Miller's Son" (A Little Night Music). George Hearn and Victoria Mallory turn in a beautiful rendition of "With So Little To Be Sure Of" (Anyone Can Whistle). Angela Lansbury is accompanied by Stephen Sondheim on the piano to deliver her rendition of "Send in the Clowns," which is one of the better and heartfelt sung and is definitely worth a listen. Selections from all of Sondheim's major musicals except Follies are featured.
A Stephen Sondheim Evening (1983 Concert Cast) Poster
A revue created for the Whitney Museum's Composers' Showcase series (and sometimes known as You're Gonna Love Tomorrow), A Stephen Sondheim Evening collects songs with music and lyrics by Sondheim in a live 1983 concert featuring a top cast of Liz Callaway, Cris Groenendaal, Bob Gunton, George Hearn, Steven Jacob, Judy Kaye, and A Little Night Music's Victoria Mallory, with a special appearance by Angela Lansbury. While many of the songs were somewhat obscure at the time, they're rather familiar decades later, including selections from 1954's Saturday Night and outtakes from A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. And though the Fender Rhodes sounds dated, the cast and the performances are excellent. Callaway's "What More Do I Need" is still definitive, and Sondheim himself accompanies Lansbury's "Send in the Clowns" and leads the singers on "Old Friends." --David HoriuchiBroadway & Vocalists Music CDs
