It is an interesting conversation with him and two other musical people involved with Pippin. His favorite musical part of the current show is the acapella portion of "Morning Glow." I think he also mentioned that he wrote lyrics to the "Manson Trio" tune, for a Ben Vereen recording. Fascinating. I tried to absorb the technical aspects when the discussion involved the current and original cast recordings. Still, it's interesting to hear anecdotes about Pippin 1972. from RC in Austin, Texas


A Conversation With Stephen Schwartz


"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

It's so great to see them have a casual conversation, rather than a formal interview. It seems like we get to hear a lot of awesome candid stories! He hasn't done many interviews about Pippin.

If Schwartz grew a beard, he would be perfect for the lead in WAITING FOR GUFFMAN: THE MUSICAL with music and lyrics by Kander and (the ghost of) Ebb.

Wouldn't GUFFMAN be a great K&E project, though?
