Title: Excellent Revival, But Doesn't Quite Match Original
Review: Last Fall, I was fortunate to catch this incredible revival on stage and it was truly brilliant. Michael Cerveris and Patti LuPone head a scaled-down, but terrific, "Sweeney Todd" where cast members play instruments as well as perform their roles. It made for a great evening.As far as the the revival's recording, however, I don't think the cd quite captures the stark, yet beautiful stage performances. The cd sounds great (and thus the four stars), but its minimalistic approach doesn't match the show's original cast recording ... a hard act to follow.Best tracks include:The Ballad of Sweeney ToddJohannaPretty WomenA Little PriestBy The SeaNot While I'm AroundOverall, a very good recording of one of the best shows ever written for the stage! Hail Sondheim!
