Title: Exquisite, Marvelous, and a little weird
Review: Usually when someone dies you don't expect to see new CDs popping up out of nowhere, but that is exactly what happened in this case. Jonathan Larson, the famed composer/lyrisit of RENT, wrote this musical long before RENT and you can see the concepts of RENT are right there. The musical, however, does stand on its own despite its larger, more publicised counterpart. The story is on the common side, but the music is indeering. In addition, Mr. Larson created a marvelous spoof of Stephen Sondheim's Sunday, Larson looked up to Sondheim and his works for insperation. You also get to hear Jonathan Larson perform one of his songs, and, at least with me, it'll make you cry; his voice is so pure and full of power and then you realize that the voice no longer exists.
