Hello All,<br><br>I just wanted to let you know that I got to the WTWW marathon at Symphony Space on the 25th, and it was fabulous. I want to give you a report...
Well. Just heard it, and only once...and I'm disappointed. Sure, there are a few songs I like (Waits most of all), but the...the STYLE of the thing upset me....
I got the tapes, Sanya! Thanks a lot. They are thoroughly interesting. Randy Newman sang for the Toy Story movies, didn't he? It's a fairly distinguishable...
Hi, Chris-<br><br>yes, Newman composed the Toy Story scores-he's quite famous as a film composer-and so's his dad or uncle or both...<br><br>Calligraphy? And...
Well then you saw one of the highlights of the evening; I thought John Mauceri was really splendid once he got warmed up, although Judy Kaye was a bit too ...
Cause I'm a lousy club manager, that's why! ... people, please SAY SOMETHING so death doesn't feel too lonely... I'm at a loss of words at the moment, what...
Probably Mack the Knife...<br><br>SO don't anybody piss me off!!!<br><br><br>;p<br><br>Sanya... what exactly is going wrong in your life at the moment? You can...
Woooo! Mackie Messer hisself in our midst! ... ol' life rushing in when I'd rather be lying on my back watching the clouds go by (to mix-and-paraphrase ...
So... where were we... Ah-nobody said a word about the new Ute CD, except me...and I was more or less disappointed... What's with that? Did you others like it?...
I have Punishing Kiss now!!!!<br><br>I bought it last night (Tuesday).<br><br>I am fairly impressed with it, actually. Nick Cave's song, of course, is the ...
Hi! Brand new member here. I was happy to find a Weill club. Thanks to the boss for creating it!<br><br>I sing bass with the Riverside Choral Society, a choir...
I was wowed by Anne Sophie von Otter's Weill album with John Eliot Gardiner (DG). It includes the best version of Die sieben Tods"unden I've every heard. Why?...
Hello, Sergei-great to have you join us! It's been a while since I got anything "new" of Weill's ("new" as in rarely heard), but I shall be happy to check out...
Well, I guess I'd better get busy and go listen to Der Kuhhandel! Anyway, I would guess that Die B"urgschaft is closer in style to Der Kuhhandel because of the...
Oh well. Another continent to discover...<br><br>It was just a fleeting association-in The Sandman, Death is a person (described by someone as "a young ...
The recording of the Kuhhandel I have (Capriccio) omits any spoken parts... I never thought to define Weill's operas as such or not... The very term "operetta"...
Novels. The classics, mostly... not much good in contemporary stuff, save for Nick Cave and Leonard Cohen, I can't think of any good contemporary novelists....
I don't know if his anthologies count as comics, but man, was I ever sad when he died last month... or was it March? No... I think it was last month....
