i was lucky enough to see mr preston live in a performance of "mack and mabel" during the show's pre-broadway tryout tour, when i was about 9 years old. i had been captivated by bernadette peters in one of her appearances on the carol burnett show, so my dad took me to see m&m when the show came through town. thanks for that wonderful memory, dad.

A couple of minutes of research reveals (if you can trust the Internet) that the title of this song is "I Died a Thousand Deaths"... ...and that the composer was Igor Peshkowsky... ...a.k.a. Igor Mikhail Peschkowsky... ...the birth name of the late, great Mike Nichols!

For those interested, on IMDb, An Evening With Carol Burnett (1963 special), for music on the show Ken Welch is listed as creator and musical director. He worked with other entertainers in his career, so likely wrote this song. The show only starred Carol Burnett and Robert Preston.

An earlier poster said Mike Nichols wrote the piece.

@gwenniegirl50 3 ай бұрын

@@StevenTorrey for what it’s worth, I checked IMBd. Ken Welch is listed as the creator/writer of the musical numbers. The writer of the special itself is listed as Igor Peshkowsky. This was possibly Mike Nichols, although his birth name is actually spelled differently.

Jett Rink: That you love Robert Preston is a sad commentary that the first thought is homosexuality not an appreciation of this wonderful talented man. Now there’s a woman named “Mortal Clown” that also loves Robert Preston so maybe the two of you can hook up over your mutual for Robert Preston. Unless of course by using the name “Jett Rink” you are alluding to a dubious sexuality similar to the actor that played Jett Rink in the film GIANT, namely James Dean

This performance was in 1963. Rex Harrison did this technique in the original My Fair Lady production on Broadway in 1956. Preston did it in the Music Man premiere in 1957. Richard Burton did it in Camelot, which premiered in 1960. I suspect it’s at least as old as vaudeville, probably much older. Follow up: although some people credit Rex Harrison with having invented it, as I expected, it was a technique being used in Germany in the 19th century, and probably grew out of the more singing-ish technique used in operas, operettas, and oratorios called recitative. No idea when similar techniques may have also emerged in non-European cultures, though. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprechgesang
