If you are a fan of Willy Schwarz then you'll love this recording. It not only plays the music from the play Metamorphoses, it also includes the other two recordings by Willy Schwarz: The Odyssey, The Baltimore Waltz.
Personally, I have no seen the play yet, but overall the music is very well recorded and produced. So you don't have to be a Willy Schwarz or Metamorphoses fan to buy the CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars I've seen all three, August 22, 2002

This review is from: Willy Schwarz: Metamorphoses (Audio CD)

I'm from Chicago and have seen all three of the plays whose music is featured on this cd. Mary Zimmerman is a genius. Minds like hers just don't come around very often. The Baltimore Waltz was the first of hers that I saw. The song "Travelogue" was my favorite scene and Willy Schwarz's music captured it perfectly. The Odyssey was one of the most beautiful shows I've ever seen. Many of the Metamorphoses cast members were in that show. My favorite Chicago actress...who also was in Metamorphoses for a while...Mariann Mayberry, played Athena, so "Athena theme" is my favorite. Metamorphoses is amazing. I saw the show years ago in Chicago and have now seen it on Broadway twice. My favorite song has to be "Metamorphoses," but "Alcyon and Ceyx" is very close, being my favorite myth of all time and having had Louise Lamson in the scene. Willy Schwarz captures Ms. Zimmerman's shows perfectly. There is no one better for the types of shows she puts on. Truly a blessing of an album.
