This is Memory from the North American National Tour of Cats at The Place Des Arts in Montreal. It's Anastasia Lange's final performance with the tour! I have more from the show I'll post.
@disneydanny2 Yes, on the website it listed eight musicians.The tour is coming to Orange County for five days, so I'm hoping that they'll do the same. Perhaps they'll update that. Do you feel it improved the quality of sound?
@ValtronW the 2010-11 tour only had 5 musicians. fortunatly when they camem to San Francisco that was less than the minimum allowed, so for the 10 days they were here they haqd to bring un 4 extra musicians (well 5 if you include the Sub Keyboard player
@GingerSpiceCurry SERIOUSLY, RIGHT? That's my biggest complain with this touring production! You can't pull it off with eight (I believe) musicians. You just can't do it. I've heard a few sample audios here on Youtube and they add these god awful drums at the bridge and at 3:09 .....yuck! It takes away all the beauty of the song. The best versions are the ones played slowly- not all rushed and in your face like that.
The touring production of Les Miz has about a 20 piece orchestra! Come on now.
I saw Anastasia in Portland, OR and while I thought that was very talented and had a good physicality, I didn't like how she sang with almost a character voice. Too classical for my taste. I couldn't hear the pain in her voice. I could see it, but I couldn't hear it. That aside, she was still impressive. Also the teeny tiny band that this company tours with doesn't help much. There are like what? Five musicians?
@ValtronW yes it did.
