Original Studio Cast - Anyone Can Whistle - Anyone Can Whistle: First Complete Recording - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Original Studio Cast - Anyone Can Whistle First Complete Recording Lending her endorsement to the recording is The Stephen Sondheim Society's founding member Julia McKenzie. She spoke to the Society about her role in the show and had this to say Bravo John Yap! You've taken on this crazy show and made a terrific job of it. At the time it was recorded, I believe everyone concerned with it's production knew they were doing something special. And now, twenty years later, it has emerged triumphant. For my part, I'm only sorry I never had a chance to do Cora on stage. Retrospectively, it was a joy to record, and if I may say, somewhat smugly, I think I did an OK job. And there can be no better a time to such a zany, political satire than in the current climate, when the inmates do indeed appear to be running the asylum. This, according to Yap, has been part of his impetus to the recording - that and, courtesy of Covid-19, having the last six months locked up at home, giving him the chance to finally put the finishing touches to the album. And if there is any justice in this corrupt world of fake news, quarantines, asylum-running-lunatics and dark theatres, I could really see the of this album being an impetus to bring this flawed masterpiece back to the stage or at least inspiring a concert version in it's full glory.
