Superbly arranged and performed selection of Sondheim work - [15 Oct 2008]
This celebration concert is a great way to get a taste of Sondheim's work. The artists are top-of-the-line and the musical numbers are cleverly arranged often interweaving songs from different shows. The only weak items are the two songs from the film...

An extraordinary occasion - [24 Apr 2008]
The Carnegie Hall event celebrating the work of Stephen Sondheim will most likely never have a sequel, nor in some cases, better interpreters. Briefly, the late and underestimated Madeline Kahn blazing through "Getting Married Today", the estimable Dorothy...

The Master at work - [08 Mar 2007]
Having only previously owned a VHS copy of this concert(a fast deteriorating one at that) what a pleasure it was to see it again on DVD in all it's digital splendor. This is surely one of the great concerts of our time, showcasing the genius that is Stephen...

A fantastic show - [19 Jan 2007]
I bought this show on VHS at the time, because of Liza and other. We don't have so much of it in Switzerland.Watching it, I suddenly discover a Red Bombshell singing. That was the day when I fall in love for the talent and beauty of Bernadette Peters....

Sondheim Review - [09 Jan 2007]
The clarity of the picture and sound were both excellent I thought that the jacket design was a bit drab, hence no fifth star The only other criticism I have has nothing to do with the product, but relates to the concert program itself - I thought that...

Lloyd-Webber!?!?!?! - [28 May 2005]
Joseph...oh dear...Sondheim versus Lloyd-Webber?! The genius versus the money-maker, there is no competition. You may not like Sondheim, but he certainly doesn't deserve to attacked and brought down. He's breaking barriers which you clearly don't even...

Joseph Hart Doesnt Have A Clue - [17 Nov 2004]
Sure, if you like composers who manage to plagerise their own work for every "new" "musical" they come up with. Sondheim is the greatest. Sure, so few of his songs have become "popular" music, but he composes good, no not good, OUTSTANDING music! ALW ...
