About

The Opus Two violin-piano duo presents new arrangements of musical highlights from Stephen Sondheim’s brilliant Broadway shows.

Arranger Eric Stern reminisces about his work with Sondheim: “I was one of the many lucky ones who got to work with Sondheim and experience close hand his genius, collaborative nature, and inherent kindness.” Stern’s work with Sondheim included the 1984 revival of Pacific Overtures, conducting Sunday in the Park with George in the second year of its original run, co-music directing the first production of Into the Woods, conducting productions of Follies, and conducting Merrily We Roll Along at the Kennedy Center. Mr Stern writes that “My last conversation with him was about the Little Night Music suite which you’ll find on this album. We are all extremely grateful for his enthusiastic endorsement of the arrangement and performance, muted only by our sorrow that the rest were written after his passing.”
