Posted: 7/4/14 at 7:06pmI have recently been listening to the original cast recording of House of Flowers and wanted to see if anyone here had the pleasure of seeing it with Pearl Bailey and what they thought of it. I love the score - some really amazing songs. And such incredible orchestrations - shame to think they were destroyed!

Lost, but maybe not destroyed. Jonathan Tunick did a new orchestration for the Encores production which was, sadly, not a good production. But the score sounded great.

My mother saw the show twice on Broadway. She absolutely loved it. I played her cast album a lot as a kid, growing up.
Favorite song: "I Never Has Seen Snow."
