does anyone know where I will be able to buy the recording? do you think it will be on iTunes?
Posted: 9/21/17 at 7:39pm
Yes. I would assume iTunes at midnight. People in the UK already appear to be purchasing it.

Oh right true - just bought it lol. Loving the opening so far - god the orchestrations sound so much better than that those awfully thin London recording orchestrations.

This will be the largest orchestra on a Sunday recording, as it has two more pieces than the original!

is it just the songs, or is the full dialogue/script recorded? in the NPR preview it sounded like they included a lot of dialogue? ugh I can't wait!!!!

It's just the songs, with some little bits of dialogue when it come right before/after/in the middle of a song.

Yes. There is definitely dialogue but I wouldn't describe it as the 'full script' by any means.

Sounds like the perfect amount. Ps classics usually recorded too much dialogue, while other companies record next to no dialogue.
Posted: 9/21/17 at 9:17pm
Can’t even find it in the pre-orders/upcoming section of iTunes. Hmmm
Posted: 9/21/17 at 9:31pm
Listening to it now. The orchestrations sound so crisp!
Posted: 9/21/17 at 9:36pm
Just listened to Sunday and it gave me chills and transported me back to February when I saw the show. It is a beautiful recording.

Just hearing "move on" today brought a flood of wonderful memories and I'm so grateful that they recorded this. Will most definitely be waiting at 12:01 tonight to download :)"
What am I missing? What does liking this show have to do with being an ALW fan?"
Was just trying to make the point that I'm not a typical Sondheim fan, so I'm not one of these people who will enter into the debates of Bernadette vs Annaleigh. Was just blown away by the story, the score and what seemed to be amazing performances. "
Thanks for responding!

While I'm sure I will find out within a few hours... to those of you who bought it already, does it come with a digital booklet?
Posted: 9/21/17 at 10:58pm
I can't see one on iTunes? Usually they appear in "recently added" but not here.

It’s available on iTunes now. Search for “sunday in the park with george 3017” specifically. I’m in a hotel room and used by iPhone and Apple Music so not sure about the digital booklet.

My god, that orchestra! I’m hearing things in Starobin’s work that I haven’t heard before. It sounds stunning.
Posted: 9/21/17 at 11:27pm
I’m not finding it listed on Amazon for CD release or on Apple Music. It’s only 8:25 PM here in Los Angeles. Maybe it will show up on Apple Music when it’s actually Friday here...

I wasn’t as massive a fan of this production as others on here (though I still loved it), but I’ll be damned if this album wasn’t worth the wait. It sounds absolutely GORGEOUS. Crisp. Lush. Emotional.
This is now my “definitive” Sunday recording.
Posted: 9/22/17 at 12:02am
Now available for streaming (right at midnight!)

$16.99 on iTunes? Isn't that a bit ridiculous for a download? Granted, I don't buy much digitally, but that just seems awfully steep.
Posted: 9/22/17 at 12:08am
Wow, the act one finale Sunday is as overwhelming as it was in the theater. It’s so achingly powerful.
Posted: 9/22/17 at 12:09am
My God Annaleigh’s “Sunday in the Park” is magnificent! I can’t believe how anyone can top Bernadette. I loved her so much in the production when I watched her but i thought Bernadette sang it better (based on the obc).... but God listening to her (Ashford) now gives me goosebumps. Absolutely magnificent.

I don’t think it’s unusual for a two disc album. Hamilton goes for $19.99, but that does have more music.
