Sweeney Todd: A Choral Medley [Alf:00-28631]

The masterful music and lyrics of Stephen Sondheim are skillfully arranged for concert and show choirs in this 10-minute medley from critical favorite, Sweeney Todd. Sing about "the demon barber of fleet street" and pie-maker, Mrs. Lovett, who team up to concoct a razor-sharp recipe for revenge. Solid choral writing with 4 brief solos, an adept piano accompaniment, and an awesome orchestration arranged by Alan Billingsley make this a dramatic and effective concert work. Songs include "The Ballad of Sweeney Todd," "The Worst Pies in London," "Johanna," "By the Sea," "Green Finch and Linnet Bird," "Pretty Women," and "Not While I'm Around."
