Search - Stephen Sondheim, Christopher Booth-Jones, Edward Byles :: Pacific Overtures (Highlights from the 1987 English National Opera Cast)

Stephen Sondheim, Broadway's greatest living composer, is enjoying a renewed appraisal of his works: currently represented on Broadway by "Assassins" and soon to be joined by major revivals of "A Little Night Music" and "Pacific Overtures." "Pacific Overtures" is considered by many to be Sondheim's greatest masterwork. This recording is of a full operatic production with a full symphonic orchestra, The English National Opera Orchestra, and the original London cast. It is a vital and valid alternative recording to the original Broadway cast version. Grammy-nominated for Best Musical Cast Show Album. It has been digitally remastered.
