Volume II of the smash New York revue is captured here with electrifying performances from some of Broadway's most impressive vocalists (who, collectively, boast over 100 Broadway credits to their names, some of whom originated roles in Sondheim musicals). Sondheim Unplugged, The NYC Sessions Volume II features many of the best-loved tunes from the master composer's oeuvre (Being Alive, Anyone Can Whistle, Losing My Mind), as well as lesser-heard, sparkling treasures from shows like Passion and Pacific Overtures. Freshly studio recorded in 2020-21, this newest addition to the great collection of Sondheim recordings is one not to miss.
