Why is Lachiusa not discussed more? — Page 2

There's quite a few numbers in there that haven't really been heard. I'd like to hear them.

Where did all these shows of his come from? The Nutcracker? Romance Language? Lovers and Friends? The Petrified Prince? Henry and Ellen?

Are these new shows? Old shows? Abandoned shows?

OT but whatever happened to Ciaron McCarthy?

I'm not as familiar with him as I should be, but my college is likely doing a production of Hello, Again next year (the first musical the theatre department has ever done) and, after listening to it and reading the libretto, I'm really excited about it.

If you haven't seen the shows you can't really make that judgement. I wouldn't go by reviews. I find that most of his scores worked for me. I didn't see all of the past ones but they worked well.

As far as the recordings, there are those that can be found of the illegal nature. Personally I don't think it's such a big deal. I'd go to the shows and I'd buy the recordings if I could. But it is nice to hear some new LaChiusa. I want to hear Lovers and Friends. Bjivie, Most of those shows are past shows. I've never heard of Henry and Ellen or Romance Language so I couldn't say.
