- Johanna (Quartet)
Sweeney Todd
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
“Johanna (Quartet)” from the new cast recording of Sweeney Todd.
Correct me if I’m wrong… but isn’t Sweeney’s ‘Johanna….’ just as he sets in supposed to be an octave lower than that? It really threw me when I heard it live.
Actually, to my knowledge, Sweeney never sings an overlapping “Johanna” with Anthony in the beginning of the song. Don’t know why it was added for this production… I guess there’s a nice moment of harmonic dissonance there with the major second, idk.
Huh. I’m sure I’ve heard it before with all of Sweeney’s part an octave lower, which - I thought - sounded amazing. I can’t unhear it now… How strange.
I’ve heard it an octave lower too, in the NYPO recording with George Hearn as Sweeney and Patti as Mrs Lovett, I think.
It is an octave lower on both recordings. Sweeney Todd is a baritone role, and Michael Ball is a baritenor. Therefore, they raised his part up the octave. I’m pretty sure they did this with some other songs in the show too.
When I hear/think of Lida Rose from Music Man…this comes to mind

Can we just stop and appreciate Nicki Minaj’s face for a moment. She looks genuinely very concerned for Josh here, like she thinks he was actually in an arena full of kids trying to kill him, and is confused as to why no one else finds this as shocking as she does.
