Alphabet City Cycle

From Georgia Stitt: “Marcy and I became friends in New York City several years ago, back when we were both starting out as baby songwriters and were playing our respective songs all over town. I was really curious to see what Marcy and I might create if we pooled our talents. After rejecting the ideas of writing a full-length musical or a slew of cabaret songs together, Marcy pulled from her filing cabinet a stack of poems she had written and asked if I’d like to take a crack at setting them. Once we realized that we were on to something and that our songs sounded different from anything either of us had written before, we picked four more poems and kept going. The twenty-minute song cycle here is the collection of those five musical poems.”

Featuring vocals by Tony Award-nominee Kate Baldwin.
