And that’s absolutely as Sondheim prefers...

I was at a National Theater interview between Sondheim and journalist Mark Shenton a few years ago and someone in the audience asking a question was quite scathing about the vocals on the Bounce recording. Sondheim mentioned he prefers someone that acts to sing his songs and convey the lyrics rather than a perfect singer trying to act the role. Of course sometimes you get both but I guess he was pushing back on the rudeness of the audience member a little I thought at the time.
