And I was playing bass in the pit! Of the 20 + Broadway shows I played on Broadway over the years, this German production was one of my favorites. Jay was at the top of the list for MDs! Brian Cassier

Oh I have a question: the orchestra in this production sounds so much better and fuller than on Broadway. Was it actually a fuller Orchestra with more players? Congratulations to your husband as well, this is musically far superior to the Broadway production as well.

Thanks for this great video. Helen Schneider as Norma Desmond - best Show i've ever seen and the role of her life. No one played this role with such a intensity like her. Few years later, i saw her in a concert at "Alte Oper" at Frankfurt, and she has opening with the words "Oh - my Norma..." That was a really special, great moment.

And the phenomenal Helen Schneider is American born and raised. Her German is perfect

I was around this production when it was originally being staged prior to its grand opening c/o a friend of mine from back then, Simon Beck who was the show's assistant conductor. I've got a few photos and videos from the time (including Helen and Uwe rehearsing some of their mansion scenes with Simon playing the piano), which I'll have to dig out and post some time.

One of the most thrilling performances of Norma... I love Helen Schneider. Only wished it was in English or one of the Romance languages. The German sounds so harsh

On the recording, she lets out the most maniacal/crazed shriek. It was wonderful.

@chrisjacobs7417 4 жыл бұрын

@@TX1961 she was even more intense live. It's tragic she never did an English language production. English is her native tounge so she could pull it off. Her version of the perfect year in English is beautiful
