Title: A Beef with Quast
Product review: I think that, on the whole, this recording is excelent. As has been previously mentioned, it is the only recording to house every note within the show, and as such is an invaluable resource to those who are : A. diehard fans or B. Performers.That said, Philip Quast cannot read a time signature, or at least struggles mightly with it on this recording. I know that others enjoy his performance, but when you are reading the score and he is a full 10 bars behind and ignoring and adding rests left right and sideways it becomes grating after a while.Anyway... great cd on the whole, but if you dig Javert, Allum is better than Mann, who beats the pants off of Quast. Liberties with time.....oh dear
