A Quiet Revolution, the newest recording from composer-lyricist-music director Georgia Stitt, will be available digitally April 10 and via physical release May 1 from Craft Recordings/Concord Theatricals.
The album, which includes 13 tracks written over the last decade, features a host of Broadway favorites, including Sutton Foster, Norm Lewis, Jeremy Jordan, Kate Baldwin, Laura Benanti, Heidi Blickenstaff, Andréa Burns, Brandon Victor Dixon, Joshua Henry, Amber Iman, Caitlin Kinnunen, Emily Skinner, Jessica Vosk, Betsy Wolfe, and E.J. Zimmerman.
AQuietRevolution, Stitt's fourth album of original music, is produced by Jeffrey Lesser and Stitt; Stitt also music directed and provided orchestrations.
“The world is changing so dramatically every day and I—like many artists—have been wrestling with the question of tonal sensitivity: is it appropriate to be releasing an album when the world is in panic and disarray? And yet, the thing I keep coming back to is the idea that we need music, now more than ever,” Stitt said. “AQuietRevolution is a call to the part inside each of us that is desperately clinging to humanity and is willing to fight to protect it, and that somehow feels more important in these uncertain times than it ever has before. Each of us has the power to make change. Now more than ever, what revolution is waiting inside of you?”
The complete track listing follows: Maybe It’s Me – Jessica Vosk Mister Blue – Joshua Henry Casual – Betsy Wolfe The Great American Black and White – Brandon Victor Dixon Before I Lose My Mind – Amber Iman, Heidi Blickenstaff, Caitlin Kinnunen The Water is Wide – Kate Baldwin Come Over – Norm Lewis and Jessica Vosk Palimpsest – Andréa Burns Always Something More – Emily Skinner Prepared – Jeremy Jordan The Baby Song – Laura Benanti Onward Beyond – E.J. Zimmerman Stop – Sutton Foster
Stitt's original musicals include Snow Child (Arena Stage), Samantha Spade, Ace Detective (TADA Youth Theater), Big Red Sun (2010 NAMT Festival Winner), The Water, and Mosaic. She is currently writing The Big Boom with Hunter Foster, Blind Spot with Chisa Hutchinson, and an untitled oratorio for Tituss Burgess.
