Good morning, all! I stayed up too late finishing The Hyde Park Headsman, and it liked it very much. I think I may make a trek to the Lincoln Center library at noon and drop off a pile of opera CDs that John McGlinn had checked out around 2009and never managed to return.
I need to call up the beautiful Richard Rodgers scrapbooks from 1925-1930 and look at all of the Chee-Chee clippings and programs. My thoughts on a song that was added late to the score in tryout and its performers does not agree with the conclusions of John McGlinn and Robert Kimball in The Complete Lyrics of Lorenz Hart, and I'm hoping the clippings may have an answer.
