Karen Morrow “Baby Love” solo clip is a rarely captured solo musical number… Karen was part of the “entourage’s team” that flew to Cologne, Germany, - to “record” the show’s musical score with the city’s Cologne Symphonic Orchestra … the “entourage City of Cologne Team members” - included, the composer, Claibe Richardson; the score’s arranger/orchestrator - Johnathan Tunick; the lyricist Kenward Elmslie; Principal cast member Karen Morrow - whose solo musical number was recorded live with the orchestra. By being involved in the orchestra’s reading rehearsal, in identify, gave the orchestration the theatrical impression vivid enthusiasm bounty required…! Johnathan Tunick conducted the orchestra. Returning to NYCity, going through US CUSTOMS, both Claibe and Kenward had carried the “orchestra tapes” as personal luggage. Johnathan Tunick’s involvement had concluded how expensive the show’s musical score’s recording, using any NY union members of required musicians, was over-budgeted- recording the score in Germany with a fully membered symphonic orchestra was half the cost of the NY required, using, Union-contracted musicians…

There was a period sometime in the mid-'90s when my mom cleaned Mr. and Mrs. Bock's Pound Ridge home once a week. She brought me with her sometimes. I was 14 or so. (We were basically Polish peasants.) Mr. Bock allowed me free reign in his home. I was particularly fond of his studio, with its countless music albums and the beautiful swimming pool I was graciously given access to. I was made to feel like I was visiting a blood relative's home each time. My mom was never received or treated as a housecleaner but welcomed and affectionately embraced as a family member. One of the most excellent, genuine, and admirable people I have ever known. (I still have my cherished Fidler on the Roof CD he signed for me. ) --Patryk (and Ewa) 🟦
