Description / My Opinion

|
Amazon.com - Ordered 12/23/98 - Shipped 12/29/98 - Received 01/09/99 The back cover of the booklet has a big photo of the stage but it's very dark. In the booklet, there is the story of how this show was written and a synopsis. There is also a text from Gian-Carlo Menotti who compares this recording with others he heard. There is no mention of who sings what, that's one of the very few Jay albums that do not contain this information. This is a pretty album, quite nice to listen at.
