I WILL have this! One thing that I didn't love about listening to the concert was the shortage of Sweeney. Sure, most of the day was just a couple pianos and it's usually not the best idea to have Sweeney done without the orchestra (or so we thought), but I would have liked to see a bit more. I think all they had was "Green Finch and Linnet Bird" and "A Little Priest," which they cut a verse from. The list of performances listed a Sweeney Todd symphonic suite, but it wasn't there, at least not on my, um,
very good memory. BTW, I'm a little let down they won't have Carolee's "There Won't Be Trumpets." Oh well, here's to a second volume to go with this one.
