Releases tomorrow on digital platforms! Music by Tom Kitt, lyrics by Michael Korie
For now, here is a video of Carmen Cusack singing "How?" from a virtual concert she gave in Las Vegas back in December 2020. I found this video a few weeks ago - it really is a beautiful song (as others have noted), and I would love to know its context.
Oh look, a bibu!

Usually I'd see it on Apple Music or the iTunes Store by now due to time zone differences but can't seem to find it.
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

I’m assuming the digital release has been delayed.

Not according to LCT, who confirmed it on Twitter yesterday.

Binau is in Australia where it is Friday. That's what they were saying. It's not on any of the platforms.

I saw this show twice and am excited to listen to the music again!

That is not accurate. I’m generally able to switch to the Australian iTunes store and listen to the song samples the day before an album is released here in the US. Either it’s been delayed or it’s not being released in Australia which is also a possibility.

Exactly. I’m not making this up I’ve enjoyed having slight ‘early access’ for years - if you are on the Australian iTunes account you usually will have access at 12:01am AEST release date.

Maybe there will be an announcement or explanation for the delay on social media in the morning.

When I search it on Spotify Tom Kitt comes up but no album.

The press release on masterworks broadway back in December listed a Jan 21 digital release. It's already delayed for a week. I hope everything's ok. I need this record!

Well, if he's just delivered it, I guess we won't be getting it today. Some communication to customers would be nice though.

It may end up dropping the same day as the physical CD release in March, unless that too has also been delayed without notice.

I find it funny that just yesterday they were confirming on Twitter it’d be out today. Really poor communication

This is really disappointing and poor communication on their end.

It’s funny because the tweet saying the album would be out today is STILL up! You’d think they’d take it down or, at least, reply that it was an error. What’s going on over at LCT Twitter?

You think the person who runs the LCT twitter account has any idea what’s happening at Sony Masterworks?
