BackwoodsBarbie I have to STRONGLY disagree about Company. Having just stage managed a production in my college I can safely say that all the parts in that show are RIDICULOUS in terms of harmonies and exposed solo lines.

So as many of you know the Stephen Sondheim collection that Masterworks broguht out a few years ago was a great compilation of some great songs in Sondheim's repertoire. These are a lot of podcasts (free on itunes) which compile about 5 hours worth of interviews with Sondheim, Jame Lapine, Hal Prince, Jonathan Tunick, Paul Gemignani, Laura Benanti, Elaine Stritch, Len Cariou, Mandy Patinkin, Bernadette Peters, and Patti Lupone as well as many others talking about each of his shows and some of the interviews are really quite amazing. Thought ya'll would enjoy. :)
