Company : 2018 London cast recording

"When Bobbie ... enters the mind-bending opening ensemble of Company it's a whole new era for the show. He is a she (the marvellous Rosalie Craig) and by virtue of that fact we are already thinking of the show differently ... And, of course, a female Bobbie means gender reversal all round. Girls become boys and boys become girls ... One of the great joys of this cast album is the clarity of redefined harmonies in the ensembles ... Elliott's version is also an update and David Cullen's new orchestrations wrench the score from the twangy guitar and synthesizer-led '70s vibe and ... serves the look and feel of Elliott's show completely and underlines just how receptive this and other of Sondheim's masterpieces are to our changing times".
