June 4th
Well, you're probably thinking, "June 4th: that's the birth date of Rosalind Russell, Bruce Dern and Angelina Jolie, among others." Or if you're really up on your history, you might best recall it as the day, 100 years ago, when suffragette Emily Davison ran out in front of King George V's horse, Anmer, at the Epsom Derby, was trampled, and died a few days later. But no, that's not why we're here. We're here to mention that come next Tuesday, June 4, our first two spring releases hit stores: Judy Kuhn's ALL THIS HAPPINESS and Laura Osnes's IF I TELL YOU (the songs of Maury Yeston). That same day, at 4 PM, Laura and Maury will be signing CDs at the Barnes & Noble at 86th & Lexington in Manhattan. And that very same day, soundclips will go up here at PS Classics for our upcoming two-disc set of PASSION (track listing went up today), starring Judy Kuhn, Ryan Silverman and Rebecca Luker.

they hear drums, we hear music
We saw the matinee of PASSION last Sunday at Classic Stage Company, and within moments of the show ending, before the audience had fully filed out of the theatre, we'd decided to record it. (Thanks, by the way, to the many impassioned customers who've written us the last several weeks, urging us to attend.) As you've probably heard, the production is just that damn good. We're going into the studio on May 13th to record an expansive two-disc set, and we're aiming to start shipping from our website on June 18th, two weeks ahead of street date. Pre-order now!

a date with Judy
We've been hoping to work with the wonderful Judy Kuhn since we started PS Classics, but the right opportunity never came along. Last year, she came to us after some hugely successful dates at Feinstein’s, to see if we wanted to help her preserve the evening on disc. We wanted to – but all our monies at that point were tied up with Follies and Porgy. So Judy, God bless her, started a Kickstarter campaign, and her fans, God bless them, really came through. And by the time Judy had almost reached her goal and was ready to go into the studio, we were able to jump back on board and help her bring the album to fruition. We’re thrilled to be releasing Judy’s latest solo album, ALL THIS HAPPINESS, on June 4th; you can read more and pre-order here.

...but she's only a dream
We recently posted a new About Us column, hinting at some upcoming projects. The first of these, which we’re thrilled to announce, is LAURA OSNES: IF I TELL YOU (SONGS OF MAURY YESTON).. Laura performed her evening of Yeston at 54 Below in November; we were overwhelmed, as was Maury, and once she opens in Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella, we’ll be taking her and her band into the studio to preserve the evening on disc. (Maury has even reached into his trunk this past month to allow her to premiere a few Yeston gems that weren’t in the concert; it is, after all, the first solo disc of Yeston songs, done with Maury’s cooperation, input and blessing.) You can read more and preorder here.
