In 2002, John Sawoski arranged, orchestrated, played, conducted, and co-produced an album called The Leading Ladies (currently out of print). The CD featured Lisa Vroman and two other classically trained sopranos who had starred in numerous musicals (including nine Broadway shows) and had sung with symphonies and orchestras worldwide. All three had played Christine Daaé in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s The Phantom of the Opera on Broadway and across the country. For more information about the group, please click here.
