Gosh I miss Goddard Lieberson.
Trying to listen to Hadestown. Too much talking.
I do enjoy the music bytes but let me listen to and enjoy the songs.
Too much narration included for my taste.
Even the new Follies from a few years ago.
I just listen to the original cast recording.
Another example:
Annie Get Your Gun with Mary Martin.
Fun recordings with just enough characterization to enjoy the music, compared to the actual performance.
And then My Fair Lady:
On stage Eliza doesn’t finish I Can Do Without You but on the recording that terrific final note is there.
Why can’t just the music (it is a MUSICAL) be recorded? |
