I just saw this in NYC and I think I might have wept after every song... but "Put On Your Sunday Clothes" was SOOO moving! Gavin Creel was outstanding at everything he did, and I'm hoping you deconstruct Kate Baldwin's rendition of "Ribbons Down My Back." Her vocal control was NUTS!! I mean that in the best way possible! :) My brother, sister-in-law and myself (all music teachers) were weeping from the sheer joy and at times [as you said] simplicity of this production. I have "Seth's Broadway Diary" vol. 1 and I too, am obsessed with high belting. I love the ear SR has, and I'm guessing there were both altos AND a tenor or two on that low harmony line in POYSC.

10:30 the word you're hunting for is "drone" -- the underlying constant notes from bagpipes. You nail it -- it's THAT chord change in the song which blossoms and makes the song memorable as it can cause an ASMR event which emotionally binds the listener to the music; that, in turn, creates a memory of comfort and familiarity which draws them in deeper.

Saw Hello, Dolly! for the 6th(!) time the other night, and Gavin added an "ohhh" before "Listen, Barnaby" and I literally got goosebumps. He probably added it to gear up for the high note on "listen" but it was still a great addition. Also I was sitting in the orchestra and I could hear Jennifer Simmard hit that crazy high note in the end, albeit more muted lol.

Thank you so much for explaining why my heart soars to the music of this wonderful show. Much respect to you.

This is so wonderful. In case you read your comments, Seth, I'll add a few things: the piano entrance of the ensemble is so perfect because it's ALL ABOUT THOSE COSTUMES, RIGHT? Did you swoon? I DIED. I was DED. Thank you for loving on Jerry Herman. He is indeed underappreciated. I think the word you were looking for for that slightly sinister harmony is drone? I have always especially loved that verse and now I know why! DRONING. Finally, in the original score, the men sing "To town we'll trot" segment and the women respond with a high "OH!" I don't know what note it is but it's in the original recording. I always figured that the verse was a lyrical nod to Cornelius and Barnaby's intention, hence the guys singing it. I found it interested that this production cut the women's response of "OOOH"" I love that you cried. I saw Bette on June 14th, her first performance after winning the Tony and the audience love was titanic.
