Mandy Patinkin's latest solo recording, a tribute to composer Stephen Sondheim, will be released on the Nonesuch Records label Oct. 29.
Appropriately titled "Mandy Patinkin Sings Sondheim," the double-CD was recorded live at the Prince Music Theater in February 2002. At the time, the Philadelphia Inquirer exclaimed, "[Patinkin's concert is] an impressive marriage of some of the most complex, perceptive, yet emotionally revealing songs written for the theatre, presented by one of the theatre's best singers."
