Re John Yap - he is shameless and really ignorant. He's been sitting on that recording for twenty-four YEARS. I've called him out on that as have others - he gets very testy, very childish, and he finally decides to mix the album and acts like he's God for doing so, has been posting relentlessly about it everywhere you can post, had a cover art contest and if that's the best he got it's really bad and many people have commented on it and he goes after anyone who does, saying it's brilliant and everyone will understand when they see it, got Sondheim to give him a quote (who hasn't), and at this point I'm beyond caring if it's good or bad. And why forty-two musicians - listen to the OBC - it sounds great and they most certainly did not augment what was already a large band by Broadway standards. He really is a mess and he REALLY doesn't like me, which means I enjoy taking him on every now and then, just for fun, to watch him attack me and implode.
