Product Description

From Amazon.com

For those Sarah Brightman fans who didn't spring for The Songs That Got Away when it was a pricey import, this domestic release will be a must-buy. Originally recorded in 1989 shortly after she achieved international fame in The Phantom of the Opera, the album spotlights obscure American and British musical theater songs that either were removed from shows or were "lost" when the shows themselves slipped out of the repertoire. (Of course, some of the songs aren't nearly as obscure as they were in 1989--the opening track, Stephen Schwartz's soaring "Meadowlark," has since been claimed by Liz Callaway, Patti LuPone, and Betty Buckley, while Stephen Sondheim's "I Remember"--well suited to Brightman's glasslike tones--is now recognized as one of his most gorgeous and haunting compositions.) Brightman performs well on this diverse collection of entertaining and often lovely songs, including an early draft of Frank Loesser's "Fugue for Tinhorns," here sung as a triple-tracked, lilting waltz, and the Puccini aria "Chi il bel sogno di doretta," which foreshadows her later, more ambitious crossover projects. There's also a tune from Jeeves by then-husband Andrew Lloyd Webber, who produced this album not long before he and Brightman divorced in 1990. --David Horiuchi

5.0 out of 5 stars ミュージカルファンも、そうでない人も・・・, 2002/8/22
十数年前、当時中学生だった私はNYのCD店でこの一枚に出逢いました。以来、私の大切な宝物です。最近のサラはヒーリング系というか独自の世界を築いていますが、その原点ともいうべきサウンドです。収録曲はすべてミュージカルとオペラからの出典ですが、ことミュージカル曲に関しては、殆ど日本で知られていない作品の楽曲ばかりですので、純粋にサラの書き下ろしアルバム的な楽しみ方が出来ます。

勿論、ミュージカルのコアなファン(私もですが....)にとっては、その数十倍はオイシイといえましょう。サラがロイドウェバー作品以外のミュージカルナンバーを歌っているというだけでもワクワクしますし、収録されている唯一のロイドウェバー曲も「Jeeves」というとてもレアな作品のもの。
ソンドハイムやシュワルツもなかなか(^^)。更に、編曲も素晴らしい。ピアノや弦など優しい楽器を多用したアレンジが多く、いつまでも聞いていたくなります。この頃のサラといえば、声が出来てきて、ミュージカル歌唱から本格オペラ歌唱へ幅を広げつつ独自の世界を構築し始めた時期であり、また一方で「As I Came of Age」なんてポップでキュートなアルバムにもチャレンジしたりと、とても意欲的だった時期。そんなサラの道程を探る意味でも、ファンなら聴いておくべき楽曲です。所謂ネオ・クラシックの境地に至った今のサラの歌声もグーですが、私はこのアルバムに収録された、良い意味での「荒っぽさ」が僅かに感じられる歌声の方が好きです。
サラ・ブライトマンという希有な歌手が、おのが新境地を探り、見いだそうとする、その息づかい、手触りを、皆さんも感じてみて下さい。日本版はおろか、輸入も殆どされていないアルバムでしたが、ネットショッピングのおかげでこうして手に入れることが出来るのは神の恩恵?サラ・ブライトマン初心者の方には、最近発売された「もし私がふたたび恋に落ちたら」(原題:Encore)もいいでしょう。
これには本アルバム曲も一部収録されています。

5.0 out of 5 stars "Meadowlark" is the BEST!, 2002/4/15
The songs that got away- well, some did, and some only partially did! All of them are beautiful, Meadowlark, I Remember, Silent Heart... Chi Il Bel Sogno Di Doretta is a powerul aria, and Sarah's voice back then was perfect for singing this piece.some songs like Mr Monotony and Lud's Wedding are strong, and you get to hear something different from them than what you would find in her singing now. Half a Moment is the only Andrew Lloyd Webber song (from Jeeves- the only real flop Lloyd Webber had), ALW fans have to hear this ;) !!! Overall, I think this album is worth buying! it IS old, and Sarah's voice has improved since then... but if you like musicals and you like Sarah, you CAN NOT miss out!!!
