Sang a ton of Sondheim with some community elders around a piano on Sunday in his memory. We drank, sang, cried, reminisced- it was fabulous.

...I wish this didn't suit my Broadway gallery so perfectly. He's going to have a legacy like Shakespeare's, and no one lives forever...but I wish he could have.

Halfway through the wood
Do not let it grieve you
No one leaves for good"

When the news of Sondheim's death first reached me, I spent an hour crying, because just that day alone I'd been listening to 'A Little Priest' from Sweeney Todd and giggling at all the 'bad'/'Dad' jokes. Immediately my thoughts turned to my favorite song from Into The Woods, 'Children Will Listen', and I was a mess. The man's musical prowess was a treasure. Few people know Lin-Manuel Miranda consulted with Sondheim when writing Hamilton, and he was an inspiration to so many of today's modern artists.
A beautiful tribute. Thank you, Subeta. (Somehow not surprised by this- I know you guys have a few nods to Sondheim's works in your items, especially the zombie foods. XD)

Thank you so much for this item. Sondheim's death hit me really hard and I have been finding comfort in seeing people from all the parts of my life sharing how much his words and music shaped who they are today. He really knew how to distill down the intricacies of human existence into words and melodies that were quite literally music to our ears, and our lives are better for having listened to and seen his work. Thank you, Mr. Sondheim. And thanks again Subeta for this item. ❤️

Omg. I don't play Subeta anymore, but I check the news regularly and I just have to say... thank you for such a sweet tribute item. For those who aren't familiar with the performing arts world, Stephen Sondheim was the Broadway musical equivalent to Beethoven or Shakespeare. His artistry was unmatched.
He wrote the music for Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods, Follies, A Little Night Music, Company, and Sunday in the Park with George, if anyone wants to give his shows a try. If you're not interested in a Broadway show, both Sweeney Todd and Into the Woods were recently adapted into movies, and they, of course, feature Sondheim's music.
Rest in peace to this monumental figure.

Woke up and saw this in the directory and got worried I'd slept through a TS restock, so thank goodness it's just a free gift!!!

The wording of this news post really hit me hard since I just lost my beloved chocolate lab today. I could sure use some comforting music or lyrics or something; how did you know? :(
I'm glad some comments mentioned who this tribute was for though because otherwise I wouldn't have known.

Thank you Subeta and thanks everyone--without the comments I wouldn't have realized this was for Stephen Sondheim. News is (usually) not a component in my own little world.
