Me neither. I have actually never seen it or heard it all the way through. We did a song from it last year at college at it was gorgeous.

Stupid question: is this a one-time-only type of thing, or is it possible that they'll air it again? (I only ask because I need to know how urgent it is for me to find a videotape by 8 pm....)

It's scheduled to re-air a couple of times in the next week including a re-airing later tonight (check pbs.org).
Here's more info:
"The 2004 Candide concerts with the New York Philharmonic — starring Tony Award winners Kristin Chenoweth and Patti LuPone — will be broadcast on PBS on Jan. 12.
Part of PBS' "Great Performances" series, the recent concert of the Leonard Bernstein musical will be telecast on WNET/Thirteen Wednesday, at 8 PM ET; check local listings. The concert was recorded live May 8.
The musical, which played a limited engagement May 5-8, starred Tony winners Chenoweth and LuPone as, respectively, Cunegonde and The Old Lady. They were joined by tenor Paul Groves in the title role, tenor Stanford Olsen as Governor/Vanderdendur/Ragotski and baritone Sir Thomas Allen as Pangloss/Martin. The concerts, helmed by Lonny Price, also featured the Westminster Symphonic Choir under the direction of Joseph Flummerfelt. Marin Alsop conducted the Philharmonic.
The cast also boasted Michael McCormick (Baron/Inquisitor/Don Issachar/Cacambo), Gina Ferrall (Baroness/Sheep), Janine LaManna (Paquette), Jeff Blumenkrantz (Maximillian), Michael McElroy (Judge/Captain/Crook), John Herrera (Judge/Aide/Prefect/Governor), Ray Wills (Heresy Agent/Archbishop/Priest) and Patty Goble (Sheep).
Jim Noone provided the stage design with costumes by Tracy Christensen, lighting by Kevin Adams, sound by Tom Clark, choreography by Casey Nickalaw and combat direction by Rick Sordelet.
Based on Voltaire's novel, Candide premiered on Broadway in 1956 at the Martin Beck Theatre. Although it boasted music by Leonard Bernstein, a book by Lillian Hellman and additional lyrics by John La Touche, Dorothy Parker and Richard Wilbur, the musical ran a brief 73 performances. The 1997 revival at the Gershwin Theatre featured a cast led by Jim Dale, Andrea Martin, Jason Danieley and Harolyn Blackwell."

Being that PBS is airing, there is no doubt that it will soon be available on DVD
"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive.
"Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot."
"No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one."
Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

We get it at 7:00pm Mountain time (Denver). I don't see a re-airing for later this evening. Thank you Margo for the DVD information. I will just watch it tonight and not tape it. I have been looking foreward to this. I purposely planned my NY trip and saw Wicked when I did because Kristin was leaving 2 days after to go into rehearsals for Candide. And it is a cold night with snow on the ground in Denver. A perfect night to curl up and watch Candide!

Isn't Kristin wearing the same dress she wore during the Popular number in Wicked?

Does anyone else feel that they could listen to Kristin sing classical or semi-classical music till the cows come home, but flee from her jazz/standard/pop vocal stylings?

Chenoweth is so talented. I could listen to her in anything, even Wicked.
I love her in Charlie Brown.

kristen does have an amazing voice and this show is funny. I read the book so seeing the show is great.
"At the opening night party, they had clowns on stilts, jugglers, a chocolate fountain, popcorn, hot dogs. [My son] looked at me like I had been holding back. Like, 'This is what you do?' I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell
