Songs For A New World (1996 Original New York Cast)

I bought this to replace a copy that a friend walked off with last year. Christmas just isn't Christmas for me without several airings of Surabaya Santa.

I'd like to think that Jason Robert Brown will move past his demonstrable facility with pastiche to do some unique work. Certainly, he's demonstrated on this CD that he understands his predecessors. I eagerly await what he can do as himself.

Tracks:
    1. Opening: The New World
    2. On the Deck of a Spanish Sailing Ship, 1492
    3. Just One Step
    4. I'm Not Afraid of Anything
    5. The River Won't Flow
    6. Stars & The Moon
    7. She Cries
    8. The Steam Train
    9. The World Was Dancing
    10. Surabaya-Santa
    11. Christmas Lullaby
    12. King of the World
    13. I'd Give It All for You
    14. Flagmaker, 1775
    15. Flying Home
    16. Hear My Song

Make Believe

I love jazz and am a big fan of John Pizzarelli, who produced this recording of his wife. I also thought I would be a big fan of Jessica Molaskey, having heard some great tracks of hers on the radio. This made my disappointment in this recording all the greater. This is simply over-over-produced. Jessica has a great voice, but if improvisation and spontaneity are the heart of jazz, this is not jazz. Dear John: can the strings and all the rest of the carefully orchestrated arrangements. Let her just sing from the heart with guitar (yours), piano, and bass as accompaniment.

Tracks:
    1. I Cain't Say No
    2. Guys and Dolls
    3. Make Believe
    4. Stepsisters' Lament
    5. Glad to Be Unhappy (with Adam Guettel, vocals)
    6. Hey, Look Me Over
    7. So Many People (with Larry Goldings, piano)
    8. Cloudburst/Getting Married Today (with John Pizzarelli, vocals)
    9. Growing Pains
    10. All That Jazz
    11. Right as the Rain
    12. You're a Builder Upper
    13. Cradle and All
    14. Goodnight My Someone (with Larry Goldings, piano)

    4. How Come You Ain't Got Me?

    7. I Love The Way You're Breaking My Heart
