Regiment Ramblings (What If?)


Recommended Posts

in a year when serious jazz showed up in the top 3, we are offered a show about the New World, with marketing crowing about how Phantom is bringing back the New World Symphony.

 

But yet they really didn't.

I quite enjoyed their 2005 show, which included music I never thought at the time I would see PR doing. It would be interesting to see them move in a similar direction.

One of my all-time favorite shows from them. Loved it.

I went into the season thinking it would fail, I'm glad I was wrong!

The fun for me of the 2005 show was they managed to take out the "dead" spots between both pieces - the whole thing kept the Gershwin feel and just zipped right along.  And visually, it was an amazingly simple-to-follow concept from start to finish.  Sometimes, hammering home one clear theme works better.  <coughThisNewWorldcough>
