Geraldine Turner Sings The Stephen Sondheim Songbook Volume 2 (Sondheim) (RNBW016) A new recording by one of the foremost interpreters of the famed composers work. A follow-up to Geraldines original best selling volume one. Includes her original cast performances from INTO THE WOODS, A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC and COMPANY, as well as songs from FOLLIES, PASSION, SATURDAY NIGHT, EVENING PRIMROSE, MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG, GYPSY, THE SEVEN-PER-CENT SOLUTION and A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM. This is a classy encore to volume one and continues Geraldines definitive versions of Stephen Sondheims masterly theatre songs. |

Turner
is extremely adept at getting under the skin of a song and bringing out
every nuance of a lyric. She is also a highly theatrical singer of the
old belt variety, which is, at times, a refreshing change. 48
minutes of sheer listening pleasure. There is no shortage of albums out
there celebrating the composers work, but to me, this is one of
the best in a long time.
Triumphant recital
an irresistible music
feast for singer and listener. |
