Frankenstein CD Released on Ghostlight

How do I get a copy? I would love to hear it!

You haven't lived until you've heard "The Coming of the Dawn". That song alone is worth the price of the CD. It's a shame more people aren't familiar with the show.

They were definitely bumped up for the CD, or else changed from when I saw this in previews (I also noticed that a song called "The Sorrow Born of Dreams" was cut from the time I saw it to the time it opened)... I remember a lot of the show being much more "rock" than it sounds on the recording.

Are there liner notes with the CD, or should I just get it on iTunes?

It's not much though, unless you just want the hardcopy, you're not missing much by getting on itunes.

Hi,
I Musical Directed and conducted FRANKENSTEIN as well as the CD.
I can clear up a couple of things: The song entitled THE SORROW BORN OF DREAMS
was cut during previews. I was actually sorry to see it go because I felt that it tied the story up nicely as a cautionary tale. I think that not including it in the show was a factor in the confusion about what the show was trying to say as a piece.

Yes, the orchestra was augmented for the recording by a a couple of brass instruments and a couple of strings that were overdubbed well after we wrapped the initial recording session and I wasn't part of that augmentation. Many of you might know that the orchestration was overhauled DURING previews and we dropped a couple of instruments and added others. Before the chageover to the new instrumentation the show sounded like a synth fest. Glad we made those changes as difficult as is was on us during the preview period.
In any case, even though it's a little more bombastic at times than I would prefer if I had been mixing it, it is a nice memory of a show that was rocky at times but whose heart was in the right place and in which all involved were very loving and generous artists.
