Where it came from
Released in 1991 on the EMI Classics label, this album represents a notable intersection between the world of operatic vocal performance and the Great American Songbook. Produced by John McGlinn, who was widely recognized for his scholarly and meticulous approach to restoring original orchestrations of musical theater works, the project sought to present Cole Porter's compositions with the lush, symphonic scale of the London Symphony Orchestra rather than typical jazz-combo arrangements.
Thomas Hampson, an American baritone celebrated for his rigorous technique and diverse repertoire, brought a formal, deliberate vocal sensibility to these standards. The recording was designed to honor the sophistication of Porter's harmonic structures and lyrical wit. Upon its release, the album was received as an ambitious effort to bridge the gap between classical concert halls and popular song, garnering appreciation from critics who valued the fidelity to historical orchestration and Hampson's expressive precision.
