I was supposed to be in New York last week on a Sondheim binge (Company and Assassins and maybe some other stuff) so this #Sondheim90Concert is pretty much the first quarantine livestream I& #39;ve gotten genuinely pumped for.
I& #39;ll avoid live-tweeting (if it ever actually starts) but I& #39;ll just state in advance that all I really need out of this evening is for Raul Esparza to do Being Alive, and Mandy and Bernadette to make me feel like I& #39;m 10YO watching Sunday for the first time again. Just that.
If I ever propose live-streaming a concert I& #39;m in charge of, everybody please remind me of this time that ALL OF BROADWAY couldn& #39;t get Raul Esparza on a working uplink within 40 minutes of the scheduled start time.
Ah! Well, nevertheless
FINALLY. And while we& #39;re waiting through multiple overtures, can I just say how absolutely silly it is when these remote-musician-grid-video-stack things have a conductor waving along in one of the squares?
This orchestra sounds freaking great, though. #Sondheim90Concert
lol at a hard close-up of the snare drum as we hear a timpani roll #Sondheim90Concert
Okay apparently I am live-tweeting this now. I& #39;ll go ahead and keep it in this thread, so mute if you need to.
