Music reviews of This Ordinary Thursday - The Songs of Georgia Stitt
Music Review: A perfect showcase...
Rating: 5 Stars
A very talented composer, add to that a lineup of some of Broadway's best vocalists and you get this perfect debut album.
The songs are personal, intelligent and captivating. Her lyrics clever and inspired.
My favorites are Lauren Kennedy's "I Lay My Armor Down," Matthew Morrison's "One Day More," Jenn Colella's "Big Wings," Faith Prince's "I Get To Show You The Ocean."
The album is not at all tedious or monotonous, each song is distinct.
Another remarkable song is This Ordinary Thursday (sung by Susan Egan), a song about her husband Jason Robert Brown.
Actually, I loved every song, it's impossible to choose just one and each performer shines and deserves their own spotlight.
It's just a brilliant debut. Now I want a 2nd recording. And a Georgia Stitt musical. Better yet, a JRB-Georgia musical.

Description of This Ordinary Thursday - The Songs of Georgia Stitt
All products are BRAND NEW and factory sealed. Fast shipping and 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed.Many know Georgia Stitt as the vocal coach on the primetime reality series Grease: You're the One That I Want, but she has a thriving "side" business as an arranger, conductor, musical director, pianist and songwriter. It's the latter aspect that gets showcased on this album, in which Stitt's songs are performed by a collection of topnotch Broadway pros. The overall mood is one of thoughtful longing, emphasized by largely acoustic arrangements, mostly by either Stitt or her husband, Jason Robert Brown (The Last 5 Years). While perfectly crafted, the songs quickly blend into each other; their share a certain polite, "beige" elegance that also lacks inner fire. This makes the tracks breaking from that mold stand out even more: Jenn Colella brings a nice twang to the rollicking "Big Wings;" Faith Prince sounds positively delighted on the jaunty "I Get to Show You the Ocean;" and Kelli O'Hara demonstrates why she's one of the finest interpreters on Broadway on the sepia-tinted "Perfect Summer," which sometimes sounds like something cut from a 1940s musical (Stitt herself plays the piano on all three songs). --Elisabeth Vincentelli
