Boy, am I glad we're getting back to serious business! :-D
Some of you know already that I have been cast as the Old Lady in "Candide" in Monterey, CA. (I was reluctant to say anything on the list before, for fear of alerting the evil spirits.) I am expected to go into rehearsals at the end of May knowing the music by heart.
We are using the score published by Boosey & Hawkes. I have it on order at a store in San Francisco, but I was informed earlier this week that B&H is OUT OF STOCK and will not have more before April 12. If then. Fortunately, I was able to score the last copy of "Vocal Selections" at helpful helpful helpful Music Music Music, so I can at least get started on "I Am Easily Assimilated."
The whole cast is in the same boat. Soooo, if anyone on the list happens to spot a B&H "Candide" piano-vocal score (by L.Bernstein, of course) in your friendly neighborhood music store, please e-mail me PRIVATELY and let me know. I know that it's expensive ($80-$100), so I will reimburse for cost plus time & trouble.
