Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s Pulitzer Prize–winning masterpiece follows painter Georges Seurat (Academy Award nominee Jake Gyllenhaal) in the months leading up to the completion of his most famous painting, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. Consumed by his need to “finish the hat,” Seurat alienates the French bourgeoisie, spurns his fellow artists, and neglects his lover Dot (Tony Award winner Annaleigh Ashford), not realizing that his actions will reverberate over the next 100 years. Funds raised at the concert performances will allow City Center to make the performing arts accessible to the widest possible audience by subsidizing affordable tickets throughout the year.

After wowing in last year's Encores! revival of Little Shop of Horrors, Hollywood star Jake Gyllenhaal (Prisoners, Nightcrawler) is back at New York City Center. Alongside Broadway starlet Annaleigh Ashford, he leads the cast of this concert performance of Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's Sunday in the Park with George, which is being staged in honor of philanthropist Adrienne Arsht. One of Sondheim's finest works, this light and wonderfully original show includes the songs 'Color and Light', 'Gossip' and 'Finishing the Hat'.

MARIANNE McPARTLAND "PIANO JAZZ WITH STEPHEN SONDHEIM" (1994)

MARIANNE McPARTLAND "PIANO JAZZ WITH STEPHEN SONDHEIM" 
https://www.sendspace.com/file/a04vow

On this episode of Piano Jazz recorded in 1994, legendary musical theatre composer Stephen Sondheim is Marian McPartland's guest. They perform and discuss selections from his extensive catalog, including "Anyone Can Whistle," "Old Friends" and "Send in the Clowns." Sondheim sings and plays piano on "I Wish I Could Forget."

Stephen Joshua Sondheim was born March 22, 1930, in New York. He grew up on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and, after his parents divorced, on a farm near Doylestown, Penn. His father Herbert was a dress manufacturer and his mother Janet, or Foxy, was a designer. Around the time of his parents' divorce, Sondheim befriended Jamie Hammerstein, son of lyricist and playwright Oscar Hammerstein II. The elder Hammerstein assumed the role of surrogate father and had a profound influence on Sondheim, especially in developing a love for musical theater. Hammerstein took Sondheim on as his apprentice, designing a kind of course for him on the construction of a musical. Sondheim wrote a series of four shows on different subject matter, none of which were ever produced professionally.

In 1950, Sondheim graduated magna cum laude from Williams College in Williamstown, Massachusetts, and went on to study with composer Milton Babbitt. Both men were fascinated with mathematics, and together they systematically studied the songs of various composers, especially Jerome Kern, who was known for his complex yet memorable melodic lines.

Sondheim's big break came when he wrote the lyrics to the musical West Side Story, with music by Leonard Bernstein and a script by Arthur Laurents adapted from Romeo and Juliet. The 1957 show ran for 732 performances and won two Tony awards and a Theatre World award.

West Side Story was followed by the 1959 hit Gypsy, for which Sondheim wrote the lyrics. And in 1962, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum premiered with music and lyrics by Sondheim. It ran for 964 performances.

Sondheim's oeuvre of the past five decades includes Anyone Can Whistle (1964), Do I Hear a Waltz? (1965), Company (1970), Follies (1971), A Little Night Music (1973), Pacific Overtures (1976), Sweeney Todd (1979), Merrily We Roll Along (1981), Into the Woods (1987), Assassins (1990), Passion (1994) and Bounce, later retitled Road Show (2003).

In 1985, James Lapine and Sondheim won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for Sunday in the Park with George, a musical based on the work of French Post-Impressionist painter Georges Seurat. Sondheim is the winner of an Academy Award, multiple Tony Awards (eight, more than any other composer) including the Special Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in the Theatre, multiple Grammy Awards and the Laurence Olivier Award.

He has also written music for film and television. The 2007 film adaptation of Sweeney Todd, directed by Tim Burton, was made with Sondheim's participation and approval. A film version of Follies is currently in pre-production, with a script by Aaron Sorkin.

Originally recorded Feb. 23, 1994.
