I envy you all that Cole Porter, ChasSmith.

Just a quick reappearance to say:

Oh My God. This music is magic, and the orchestrations are sublime.

And of course the orchestra is beautiful.

That is all.

TOD:
I wonder how many times I can suggest Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil before Bruce finally screams at me, "I hate Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil!" By the way, it's not that I love these writers, it's that they're the only musical theater people I can think of that Bruce hasn't already featured in a Kritzerland show.
So, I'll also put out my other suggestion again of doing Hal Prince part 2 because there were so many shows that were skipped in the first Hal Prince show because he did so many.

Amy · « **Reply #68 on:** February 23, 2017, 08:12:33 AM »

I'm so relieved that Bruce just had gunk in his ear.

BK - Have you done The Songs by Robert Lopez (Avenue Q, Book of Mormon, Disney's Frozen) yet? That could be a very big seller.

Jane, are you watching the Spike Lee movie?

Saw it the day it opened. Loved it. Still do. Very energetic storytelling. Never felt long to me.

Jane · « **Reply #73 on:** February 23, 2017, 09:58:15 AM »

We are. I have read the book twice but it has been a long while. While I recall parts of the film others, of course, don't fit with my recollection of the biography. It is possible I only saw parts of it since my memory is not strong like yours is.

I slept quite poorly. Perhaps it's the nerves in an uproar. I think today's orchestra reading will go well, but there's always that thought - I've had it as long as I've been working - that by noon, I'll be out and Jonathan Tunick will be called in to replace me.

NO!! That will NOT happen!

My son, David, sent me the nicest gift.

It's a photo of me and Sal Mineo at The Playboy Club, taken in 1966. I haven't seen it in almost 40 years; thought it was lost. David found it while going through his late mother's stuff.

I'd post it here, but I think the jpg is too big. You can see it on my FB page.

Here it is:

John G. · « **Reply #77 on:** February 23, 2017, 10:58:48 AM »

Great photo.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #78 on:** February 23, 2017, 11:00:40 AM »

That's great. Is that the Playboy Club on Sunset?

The night Sal Mineo was killed, I was at a friend's apartment across the street from his, just a few blocks from there.

How about The Songs of David Yazbek? Has Kritzerland done that?
