Move On: A Sondheim Adventure

The genius of Stephen Sondheim stems from the revered composers ability to plumb universal human emotions even in the form of the most outr characters be they cannibalistic barbers, presidential assassins, or fairy tale witches. The acclaimed vocalist Cyrille Aime discovered that gift first-hand as she took a deep dive into the Sondheim songbook for her scintillating new album. What began as a celebration of a legendary Broadway songwriter became a work of cathartic autobiography as one song after another captured her deepest personal feelings. Aimes Sondheim Adventure began in 2013, when she was invited to participate in a tribute concert for the Broadway legend at New Yorks City Center, co-starring with Bernadette Peters and backed by Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra. Her show-stealing performance was widely praised, but the most memorable compliment came from the composer himself. You made me cry, Sondheim told Aime backstage after opening night.
