I wonder if Subway is considered altogether too problematic a show, despite the many good musical numbers and terrific orchestrations. And I wonder if the orchestrations for By Jupiter are lost. In any case, the R and H Org does not list the original orchestrations as being available, only what seem to be the Off-Broadway orchestrations. Also, so many people think the score is very lower-tier Rodgers and Hammerstein. I like it a lot, but I suspect Encores!

Don't leave us hanging ... you suspect Encores! what? As for BY JUPITER's score -- lower-tier Rodgers and Hart (which is what you meant to say, of course) is still on a pretty high tier, as far as I'm concerned. And BY JUPITER had the longest run of all their shows, originally.
