Sondheim was known for saying he never wanted to cast a "singer" that could act. He always wanted an Actor who could sing. Your evaluation is spot on because you saw the act supported by the voice. I'm assuming you've seen the Sondheim Birthday show with Patty, Elaine, Bernadette et al. Some more perfection there.
Just saw her perform for Company literally 8 hours ago and then this video pops up on my recommended. Every single point and reaction you made I felt throughout her performance even 10 years later. Legendary song, singer and performance.
It is very nice for me to know that there are very young people who are able to understand, appreciate and enjoy this sublime art. Unfortunately in my country, Italy, the one who screams the loudest always wins and the musical culture is non-existent. Well done Gavin, nice video. Even if for me Elaine Stritch is absolutely unattainable in terms of estrangement. Although she is a less gifted singer she is able to convey (to me) much more emotion, more decadence, more disenchantment, more cynicism, more despair, more joy.
You had me at “The we’re not playing vibrato.” You have the same enthusiasm for Patti, as I do. Love it!
I love this performance but I never realised how complex her singing is. You describe it so well! The energy got to me! Thank you so much! ❤
lol i am also obsessed with the way she says "zingerrrr"
