Anyone know if there's any place available to hear this score - or a song or two from it?

And everyone knows how Jay is about getting CDs out. It was recorded on May 2nd, by the way. Eg: A Man of No Importance took around a year to be released after recording.

I believe that it will be getting a November release.

Nice - thanks.
I'm looking forward to hearing it, though honestly I was less than impressed with the Man of No Importance. At any rate, Aherns and Flaherty have proven themselves enough for me with Ragtime and Once on This Island (and to a lesser extent My Favorite Year and Lucky Stiff) that I'll forgive them Seussical and MoNI (a couple of good songs in each, but I was very unimpressed with the full scores).

GYPSY - Is that just a prediction, or did you hear that somewhere?

wow, you're unimpressed with a man of no importance... must be hard to impress you.

Yeah, I was thinking that ap. Then again, there was a large number of people who weren't, so jason's not alone.

I read an article (I currently can't locate it online) but I'm looking. I will update this message when I find the article.
