Christine Baranski's A Christmas Carol: A Musical Collaboration
•
Christine Baranski, an Emmy and Tony Award-winning actress, has collaborated with a choir for a unique adaptation of Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol. This project, featuring Baranskis narration and choral music, was recorded last June and released in December. She will perform it live this week at the Morgan Library in New York and The Breakers in Newport, Rhode Island. Baranskis skills, honed from her roles in Cybill, The Real Thing, and Rumors, shine in her portrayal of characters like Ebenezer Scrooge. The show, featuring composer Benedict Sheehans underscoring and ten carols, is a perfect prelude to Baranskis return as Agnes van Rhijn in The Gilded Age season four. Checkout Solipillow.com
