I love "Country House" but it's definitely in the wrong musical style for Follies. It feels like it belongs much more in the musical world of Sunday or Into The Woods (the shows he wrote during that time).
In fact, there's a definite "Into The Woods" moment in the song, when the mention of "the child" comes up and there's a "sting" chord in the orchestra. :-)
But - I love the music of the song, and especially the repartee between Ben and Phyllis, which I think he got just right. |
