Great Australian Voices - Musical Theatre - Geraldine Turner [3CD]

Rare Early Demos, “The Stephen Sondheim Songbook”, Unreleased Studio & Live Recordings, plus Newly Recorded Tracks.

The set covers Geraldine's recordings from 1975 – 2018.  Except for the 15 tracks on Disc Two (the reissue of world-first The Stephen Sondheim Songbook), all are new releases.  Geraldine recorded four tracks earlier this year - two from her two plays with music, a fabulous song by Jacques Brel and a song written for her by the wonderful Tim Minchin. 

As with our previous releases in the 'Great Australian Voices' series, it's a 3CD set in the luxurious CD Book format with a 54 page booklet containing dozens of photos and notes on Australia's Greatest Female Music Theatre Star!
