It was a Melissa Errico’s Sondheim In The City, a new tribute to Broadway’s greatest songwriter Stephen Sondheim, offers a swinging, outward-driven, kaleidoscopic street fair of New York scenes and moments – summoning back to life the poetic vision of a man who once confessed that his entire creative life had been spent in a twenty-block radius of Manhattan. From the wide-eyed newly-wed for whom a basement room with a quarter-inch view is all that she needs, to the cynical nouveau from New Rochelle who can’t choose between uptown and downtown for her bitter pleasures, Melissa’s silky and sensuous vocal style celebrates and embodies New York characters of all kinds. Sondheim In The City is Melissa singing New York as it was and will yet become, through the words and music of one of its most enduring poets. amazon.com
