The University of Utah Singers under the direction of Dr. Brady Allred perform "Sunday" (from Sunday in the Park with George) by Stephen Sondheim live in concert at the BYU Jerusalem Center for Near Eastern Studies (located on Mount Scopus), Jerusalem, Israel on May 26, 2010.

Piano:
Laurel Enke

Israel tour May 16-29, 2010

The 1984 musical Sunday in the Park with George was inspired by the painting "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" by Georges Seurat

Sunday (text):

Sunday, by the blue purple yellow red water
on the green purple yellow red grass
Let us pass through our perfect park
pausing on a Sunday

By the cool blue triangular water
on the soft green elliptical grass
as we pass through arrangements of shadow
toward the verticals of trees
Forever...

By the blue purple yellow red water
on the green orange violet mass of the grass
In our perfect park
made of flecks of light
and dark
and parasols

People strolling through the trees
of a small suburban park
on an island in the river
on an ordinary Sunday...
