3.0 out of 5 stars
Musical joy,

This review is from: Valmouth (The Chichester Festival Theatre Production) (Audio CD)
Sandy Wilson's loveliest musical score.
The only cavil being the lack of orchestral backup and this rich score demands more than what it has been given. This Chicester 1980's Bertice Reading CD version is skimpy and not as well-sung by some soloists as the original version. Bertice Reading and Fenella Fielding are wonderful but Robert Meadmore has the oddest voice I have ever heard in the musical theatre. Melodically and lyrically this is a gem. Much more sophisticated than Wilson's The Boyfriend, this score is gorgeous. Someday hopefully we may get a new version that orchestrally does justice to Wilson's masterpiece.

...and totally charming. If all you know of Sandy Wilson's work is THE BOY FRIEND, this lovely show (written for Bertice Reading) will come as a delightful surprise.
