A triumphant song before tragedy strikes. Christine Chen joins Kyle to talk about how this song came together and how it both positively and negatively affects Act 1 of West Side Story.
This is a podcast about Stephen Sondheim's entire body of work show by show and song by song. Each week Kyle Marshall invites an expert to discuss a Sondheim song in-depth. Together they discover the humour, how the songs inform character, and any hidden meanings. Most importantly they try to understand the man behind the music, the Shakespeare of our time, as best they can.
