Here's a word for the flops -

The Grass Harp has a score that is beyond rapturous, particularly everything sung by Dolly. "Chain of Love" is ecstatic, and features one of my favorite lyrics: "I love to spend whole mornings in the kitchen/Where it's warm as a kitten's tongue". (Kitten's tongues are pretty scratchy, but I still like the sentiment).

Not everything from The Yearling is gold, but there are songs of exceptional quality, particularly the song that has truly broken out, the gorgeous "Why Did I Choose You?". Listening to just about anyone sing it, it always moves me.

Rags also moves me, in ways that Ragtime never has. For a show that was in turmoil out of town, I'd say a good 90% of that score is terrific. (The Nathan numbers are especially clunky). But "Children of the Wind," "Blame It On the Summer Night," and "Wanting" are wonderful songs.

Frank Wildhorn's music is so beautiful but I feel his show's books never measure up to his music. Someone should work on that, his music deserves it.

Oh my "Unworthy of your Love" *cries* so tragic and beautiful.
