Interesting. After weeks of stating "there are no plans for a recording", it now sounds like they may be trying to put it together after all.
Fingers crossed!

Correct And this production is way too large for the MCF I don't know the size or scale of this production however that is somewhat ironic given that the revival with Daniel Evan and (the then) Anna Jane Casey started there

Brilliant! And it's been professional filmed as well.

Brilliant! And it's been professional filmed as well. It was filmed for the Lincoln Center Theater Archive; not for broadcast, unfortunately. Still, I'm ecstatic that it will be recorded. Plus, it's good that the production recouped its entire investment. Might that encourage the producers to mount it elsewhere?

I know (sigh) but in my humble opinion, any show that is recorded is a bonus. If not for historical reasons, but to capture the performances, costumes, set and lighting designs, etc. And who knows, one day, hopefully, there may be a change of heart and it (maybe) released.

I wonder, have any shows recorded for the Lincoln Center archive gone out of copyright yet? Could be interesting to see what happens with the recordings when there are no longer any financial or legal implications involved in spreading them far and wide, though I expect I'll be long dead by then.

Most of the recordings start from 1970 (first Tony awards on record from that year) and I think there's 1 or 2 from the early 1950s with the possibility of a couple of bits and pieces from around then but not full shows. (worryingly I know enough about this archive I just knew that) So most of the copywright has a couple more decades at least on them?
BUT I'm also not well versed in my NY State law to know implications of the archive 'ownership' of the recorded material along with the actual production ownership of them. Who knows. I'm glad they recorded them, and the staff there are lovely but it's an administrative headache in terms of access.

This finishes its run tomorrow, would have thought if it was going to come to WE it would be sooner rather than later.

Apparently CD recording is being released in the US at the end of this month.

Link works Kennet_C and it sounds glorious! I know it's been said already but the similarity of Gyllanhaal's voice to Mandy Patinkin's is uncanny!

Listening on Spotify now. It really is a beautiful recording, of one of the most beautiful scores. The orchestrations sound sublime!
Is there any talk of a London outing of this production?

I'm a bit underwhelmed, I like Jake, but I detest Annaleigh Ashford. The orchestrations are wonderful.

Her performance was so acclaimed on Broadway it's a shame the cast recording doesn't capture that

I'm lucky enough -- and old enough -- to have seen both Mandy Patinkin and Jake Gyllenhaal live onstage in Sunday in the Park with George (Mandy twice, Jake once). I haven't yet had a chance to listen to the new recording, but I will say that when I heard Jake live, I didn't think he sounded at all like Mandy except for a few moments in "The Day Off" (and that may have been because it just isn't possible to sing the lines, "What's the muddle in the middle? That's the puddle where the poodle made the piddle" without sounding like Mandy Patinkin).
