We are planning an upcoming production of Sweeney Todd and there are two orchestrations available. Has anyone worked with the alternate orchestration? I am curious how people feel it stands up against the standard orchestration. It is written for less musicians and less doublings. Any thoughts? From your experience, which would you recommend?
