This fellow Seth Rudetsky is really talented, entertaining and informative. I'd never heard the "Bobby baby" in the background - it ups my appreciation for the arrangement and the fine-tuned unity of Company's music and theme. Thanks very much.

Goddamit, I've known loved played and sung this song forever and I never noticed the "Bobby, baby" in the trumpets. I literally paused the video and looked it up in my vocal score. Definitely more subtle than the "Someone Is Waiting" in "Being Alive." That's what I love about Sondheim. There's still more to learn music you've been listening to for years.

Fun fact-the term “syncopated” is derived from “syncope” (fainting, swooning), not synchronicity (which is, actually, the opposite of what syncopation in music is), so it doesn’t have an “h” 😉

So glad you found Jonathan’s counter-melody of the opening number. As I’m sure you’ve noticed him doing it in many other instances throughout this brilliant musical. Especially in Being Alive. Great job!! I played it regional on keyboards and LOVED it!!!! And worked with Jonathan Tunick on Night Music: a brilliant, kind, and extremely talented gentleman who was so helpful and knew every aspect of his orchestration, and knew how to really accompany and provide the paint for Sondheim’s canvas. I look forward to finding more of your insights.

Seth , I enjoyed your commentary on Company. I was a member of that Orchestra. In fact I am the one playing that low clarinet part. It is a Contra Alto Clarinet. It is used with a Bass Trombone in a cup mute and the string bass in pizz.. I am only visible during the last few moments, the fade ending. I had a goatee at the time. Don’t blink.

Pam just directed Company at Xavier University in Cincinnati, OH> I enjoyed that performance more than the Tony winning on at Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park. I asked how terrified the young lady was when she sang this for her, and Pam stated that it was only temporary. I don't remember the young lady's name, and my program is mislaid, but, not only did she greatly impress me, but she also was just a freshman. If a life in Theatre is her goal, this one may make it.
