Kritzerland to Release 'Simply Sondheim' CD in Oct.

Kritzerland has announced its latest CD release--"Simply Sondheim," a two-CD live recording from the San Francisco tribute concert in honor of Stephen Sondheim's 75th birthday. 

"In December of 2005, some of San Francisco's most talented artists came together to pay homage to one of musical theatre's greatest composer/lyricists.  The concert was a smashing sold-out success and featured one great Sondheim song after another," state press notes. 

All of Sondheim's major shows are represented, along with his most recent, Bounce, and the new version of The Frogs.  Also included is the world premiere recording of "Farewell," which was written for the 1971 revival of A Funny Thing Happened on The Way to The Forum.  The cast features James Brewer, Amy Dondy, Kelly Ground, Hannah Rose Kornfeld, Kim Larsen, Tom Orr, Shay Oglesby-Smith, Steve Rhyne and Stephanie Rhoads, as well as special guests Lisa Vroman, Guy Haines and Judy Butterfield.

"Simply Sondheim" is available for preorder now at www.kritzerland.com.  The street date is October 3rd, but those who preorder will receive their copies two to three weeks in advance of street date.
