Editorial Reviews
Black Bit is the most recent project by Ugo de Crescenzo for Total Wipes Production, the young and dynamic Italian company which is committed to discover new talents in a wide variety of music standards. This latest production is a reflection of black-soul music, blended in a electronic cru, recognizable from the flashy bit which surrounds the whole sound, produced by Ugo de Crescenzo (appreciated musician and producer with Gone, Dipper and Pilot Jazou). For those who like funky house, this is something which is gonna be the perfect enjoyable music experience, also tasting some influences from the world of deep house and dance music with a vocal soul-black touch! Black Bit is an open project, hosting artists of different walk of life, above all a special mention is worth to Patrick Castello's black soulful voice which gives the entire project a special character and nu-soul style. Other young talented vocalists, some of them scouted by TWP, make the production interesting and open to new perspectives of funky generation (Kareem Bennett from Pittsburgh-USA, Gora Diop from Senegal and the appreciated jazz singer Roberta Malerba from Milan-Italy).

Here's another to join the parade of page-to-stage musicals inspired by 19th-century fiction. This ambitious adaptation of Charlotte Brontë's haunting classic Jane Eyre for the musical theater seems to be part of a trend represented most famously by Les Misérables. It also reflects the increasing pressure to schedule an original cast recording release as close as possible to a new show's Broadway opening: in this case, in fact, the CD was both recorded and released prior to the show's opening in December 2000 at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre. But what's most significant for the artistic character of Jane Eyre: The Musical is found in yet another pattern: like a number of his colleagues, composer-lyricist Paul Gordon comes to the project from a pop music industry background (best known for his hit "Friends and Lovers"). And quite a few of the show's numbers benefit from Gordon's catchy craftwork, weaving melodies that are clearly destined to be whistled long past curtain. Yet the effect is sometimes too facile, not diving as deep as we would like into the emotional predicaments of Brontë's characters. You begin to crave a more deftly defined and imagined variety of sound worlds (especially for the darker aspects of Thornfield Hall) than what is hinted at. Gordon doesn't forge any new paths, but his melodic fluency does have its moments of payoff--especially in the moving final duet "Brave Enough for Love," which is also strong enough to stand on its own.Gordon's predilections as a would-be son of Sondheim are nevertheless clear, and he's telescoped the story into mostly effective lyrics, with some thoughtful juxtapositions of material. Most importantly, he understands that this is more than a Gothic romance, foregrounding the central message of forgiveness that Jane learns as a girl. He attempts to explore the injured sense of self shared by both Jane and Rochester and sets them on a painful, mutual voyage of discovery.
The creative team also includes the veteran duo John Caird (book and direction) and John Napier (scenic design), who have collaborated on such epics as Les Mis and Nicholas Nickleby (not to mention the Las Vegas Siegfried and Roy extravaganza). And the show's creators seem to share a vision geared toward the more operatic end of the spectrum (it was opera composers, after all, who early on claimed 19th-century Gothic fiction for the stage, as in Donizetti's Lucia di Lammermoor), with an actual parody of coloratura in one showstopper ("The Finer Things") given to Blanche Ingram. Fortunately, the two principals have large, richly expressive voices to encompass the large, complicated emotions of these characters. Marla Schaffel singswith unusual beauty and brings dimension to her Jane, while James Barbour (whose resumé includes Beauty and the Beast) is never really threatening as Rochester, but rather a tortured soul who is sweet-voiced even at his most cynical. Mary Stout is a stitch as the blustery Mrs. Fairfax. While the show has already undergone a lengthy evolution from its very first workshops, the viability of its final, fully staged realization has yet to be determined. But this cast recording conveys an authentic sense of the musical's atmosphere and emotional scope. --Thomas May

Great Buy!.......2007-06-08
Perfect Match.......2007-03-16
Probably the most beautiful musical of all time.......2007-02-16
I bought this several years ago and have listened to it repeatedly since I got it. Why do I love it so much? First of all, the lyrics are full of heart and emotion and tell the story ably. But it is the music and the performances that are truly remarkable here. The melodies are memorable and absolutely exquisite. The orchestration is lush but not sappy. The performances by the two leads are nothing less than stunning.
I never get bored with this wonderful cast album and it is very, very highly recommended.
Beautiful!.......2007-01-28

Good Comeback CD.......2001-01-04
For those who have seen El Chicano play live recently, this is a good representation of the group's sound. For those who remember them in the '70's, this CD will not disappoint the memory. Some of their tracks from the old era sounded like well done Santana clones, though not here. Actually, this material sounds more like War or Santana than either of those groups have sounded for over 20 years--without coming across as derivative.
