Cameron Mackintosh's 2022 tribute to Stephen Sondheim gets a surprise release
"It's Christmas time. Rush, rush, rush. A Christmas Story captures all these crazy things going on and yet we wouldn't have it any other way."
From a lonely goatherd to a symphony of a thousand...plenty of music to enjoy heading into the holidays.
This week's list is filled with jazz recordings
"We were doing a show with a big budget that had a huge set, fantastic lavish costumes, great choreography and a full orchestra with strings. I would love people to know how brave and unusual that was that we did."
Seven terrific classical, jazz and vocal albums to enjoy
"I think that we have become so cynical that we need something else in order to believe in love again. That's what we do in this opera."
Inon Barnatan's "Rachmaninoff Reflections" tops this weeks list
"There are lots of ways of circumnavigating people's expectations, which I try to do with my programing and the instruments that I play."
