How I wish I had had a Bart to teach me!

Where is the Orchestra ???
When they use a brass band instead of
a proper Orchestra it cheapens the show .
And that is why the old Org. cast recordings
are so wonderful .
Richard Rodgers would weep ………

Cheap is the right word. Tickets are expensive, but it's all about the cash.

This production used a 30 piece orchestra with the full, original orchestrations. I saw it twice and the orchestra was thrilling.

This does Not sound like a full orchestra at all. It immediately struck me as a chintzy, cheap sound...
