Ian Shaw Sings Stephen Sondheim

Stephensong

With his signature blend of emotional depth, wit, and vocal virtuosity, Ian Shaw reimagines Sondheim’s iconic songs through a jazz lens—infusing them with fresh nuance while honouring their melodic, emotional and theatrical brilliance. Accompanied by the world-class Holland-based pianist, Barry Green, this performance promises rich harmonies, inventive arrangements, and moments of pure musical theatre magic.

From the aching introspection of "Children Will Listen" and the vocally dexterous "Another Hundred People" to the biting irony of “Being Alive”, Shaw and Green’s interpretations are both intimate and grand, capturing the heart of Sondheim’s storytelling.
