Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from July 19, 2024 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

Hi Bronwyn and Matinee Idols!

When I was in law school, I wanted to host comparative listening parties with my classmates. I was thinking two or three performances of a Schubert string quartet, for example. I hosted only one, and it wasn't comparative. We played Robert Ashley's opera Improvement. The attendees were pleased, dinner was decent, everybody had a good time. But I really wish I had had the wherewithal to do subsequent parties. Two different recordings of a Schubert (or Beethoven or you name it) work can be so revealing!

I'm a little late tuning in tonight. I got home late, thanks to NYC Transit. It was A Terrible Ride, all right.

Grant Gustin: "The CW Flash" . CW used to sneak songs into their superhero shows because of the talent (Grant Gustin, Melissa Benoist, Jesse L. Martin, Victor Garber, Carlos Valdes, Jeremy Jordan, and John Barrowman)

BTW, Bronwyn, I've seen posters in the subway recently for something called the "Museum of Broadway" at 145 W. 45th St. Have you ever been there? If so, do you recommend it as worth visiting?

Another song that, like the one from "White Rose," sounds chillingly topical today.

I went and don't recommend it. It was pretty basic stuff, not very much cool stuff on display, just text on walls telling you about pretty obvious theater stuff that any AJH listener would already know about ;)
