Well, you've read the notes, the notes were twice rehearsed, and now it is time for you to post until the twice rehearsed cows come home.

T.O.D.


First of all, when it comes to lyrics, I don't think there is any equal to Stephen Sondheim.  However, there are others that I love, but I will need to sleep on that.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Certainly, Alan Jay Lerner, Sammy Cahn, and Oscar Hammerstein are right up there at the top.

Tom, I agree with your opinion of Sondheim as a lyricist.

Topic of the Day addendum:  I also like (in no particular order) Lynn Ahrens, Fred Ebb, Tom Jones, Richard Maltby Jr., David Zipple, William Finn, Betty Comden and Adolph Green, Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman, John Bucchino, Jerry Herman, Stephen Schwartz, Rupert Holmes, Alan Jay Lerner, Frank Loesser, Johnny Mercer, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Jerry Bock.

And honorable mentions go to Theodor Seuss Geisel, and our very own Fred Landau and BK!

TOD

For me it's the 1920s to the 1950s. Sondheim better work falls out of this parameter.

Alan Jay Lerner
Sammy Cahn
Oscar Hammerstein
Lorenz Hart
Cole Porter
Johnny Mercer
Irving Berlin
E.Y. "Yip" Harburg
Dorothy Fields
Paul Francis Webster
Ned Washington
Johnny Burke
Mack Gordon
Betty Comden & Adolph Green

When I got home last night, Annabelle pulled her I'm-gonna-bitch-and-hold-me-and-tell-me-you-won't-leave-me act for about an hour.  Then she went to her new favorite place, my bag for taking paper to be recycled to the basement, and spent the rest of the night there. Sometime after midnight, she climbed into bed with me.

The orchestra reading went very well. The score is so lush, and the under-appreciated Ted Royal's orchestrations are really fine.

Last night I began a ghost story, The Secret of Crickley Hall, then switched DVDs to Britten's opera Albert Herring.  It was more to my mood.

I need to get a picture uploaded.  The tree will happily sit   lie there until the inspector has come out, since it's not doing any harm where it is.  Once he's seen it, we can start cutting it up or wait and let them remove it.  Thankfully, we're in for a few days of no deluges, so the house is okay too.  The gutters will have to be repaired soon, though.
