Więcej o książce

Covering over thirty years of theater history, this fully authorized account delves into the creation of iconic musicals such as West Side Story, Gypsy, Company, and Sweeney Todd. Drawing from interviews with notable figures like Angela Lansbury, Zero Mostel, and Sondheim himself, the narrative captures the essence of each production. It explores various aspects including the recording of Broadway cast albums, musical staging, casting, orchestrations, and the artistry behind show posters and songwriting. The book extends beyond Broadway, offering insights into Hollywood sound stages, classical concert halls, and pop recording studios. Exclusive contributions from Barbra Streisand highlight her collaboration with Sondheim on her acclaimed The Broadway Album. Featuring 130 photographs, many previously unpublished, along with appendixes detailing Broadway, off-Broadway, regional theater, and opera credits, this work serves as the definitive resource on Stephen Sondheim and a comprehensive history of American musical theater.
