Same!! It's my favorite musical, and audio bootlegs aren't enough.
So very curious about the source of this: https://youtu.be/6w7l1U7_m6M?si=opWYFFqLXXyLARae

The person behind me was watching it when I was watching grainy black and white old Tennessee Williams, a few months ago. But I could see it in my monitor and I was constantly turning around to catch glimpses of bits of it. The quality was bright, crystal clear, multi camera (I’m 99.9% sure) and looked absolutely gorgeous."
Is it okay for me to grumbe that they did this for Phantom but not for Follies?"
Yes. Yes, it is. I'm most pissed the OBC of A Little Night Music has no pro-shot footage at least at Lincoln Center - they have Sweeney from only 6 years later, dammit! I saw that, and it was good, but I actually prefer George Hearn....
Anyway, back to Night Music.
I'd looooove to know from whence this came, and if there's more / all of the show somewhere!

How was the Angel of Music/Mirror Scene?
Sorry, forgot to answer this one! The scene was lovely, with Sarah being cute, Steve being dashing & boring (like almost all Raouls). The closeup on Crawford when the mirror went transparent was so clear, you could see where on his head his body mic was.

You saw it too?
What were your impressions?
I'm extremely curious if there is professional video of the Original London Cast from '86 / '87, what with that clip of Crawford & Brightman easily found on Youtube, singing Point of No Return. This video is definitely not the same as the one I saw in NYC.

Audio & video quality were significantly better than the press reel - though I'd guess with all the generational loss, the press reel may have been comparable with the Lincoln Center video. For comparison, it immediately struck me that the Lincoln Center video looked almost exactly the same in video and audio quality of the PBS Sweeney Todd with George Hearn & Angela Lansbury from 1982 - multiple camera angles, enough lighting to see everything (except some of the title song and J

Iread in a review of it that SB does a lot of dancing, and is present right from the beginning of Hannibal, and also has a significant part in Masquerade. Was it the same as you've seen other Christine's do it, or was it different? And how effective was it, given t

So, in researching for a production with which I'm affiliated, I was able to book an appointment and watch said 1988 Crawford / Brightman / Barton performance. (It was spectacular; feel free to ask any questions!)
Does anyone know of or have any tutorials that are slimy of this exact Lincoln Center performance? I've become mildly obsessed with seeing it again / having a copy. I know it's extremely difficult, but I do know of some other Lincoln Center Archives&
