Composer Quotes:

“People just don't sing like Stuart does, and even great singers don't manage to convey the emotional depth that Stuart effortlessly summons. You can hear it on this recording … I spend a lot of my time in the theater hoping for that kind of experience, that all-too-rare moment when the actor and the part and the song all merge into one perfect expression. What you'll hear on this recording is that phenomenon, repeated over and over again. As you can hear from the variety of selections herein, Stuart is a composer's best friend – he can bring so many different facets of a character to light, and imply all the mystery hidden around the corners. I feel extremely fortunate that I got to work with Stuart so early in what will certainly be a stellar career, and you will feel just as lucky, I'm sure, to hear him soar.” 
Jason Robert Brown
 

“I admire Stuart enormously for dreaming the dream of this CD - many do, but few realise it so fabulously and insist on getting the best writers and the best songs and then sing them with great arrangements and great guests. The CD looks and sounds wonderful … I honestly think it's one of the very best solo CDs a musical theatre star has produced in this country.”
 
George Stiles 

  “All Things in Time is the sort of album you dream will come along.  A brilliant new voice in musical theatre singing a collection of little-known (in some cases previously unheard) songs, and every one a gem.  SimG Records are quickly creating a new niche market in the UK for creating quality recordings of musical theatre singers, choosing highly individual songs and lesser known composers to showcase.  SimG seems to have a knack for routing out unfamiliar songs that don't only fit the singer perfectly but make the listener feel like they have discovered something brand new.  Stuart's album is no exception.  14 beautiful songs, most recorded with the composer's direct involvement and that glorious voice soaring high above them.  The only problem is you'll want to keep this album a secret just for yourself.  Please don't.  Spread the word.  SimG records and Stuart Matthew Price deserve to be heard.” 
Grant Olding 

"I've heard many solo albums put out by performers at various stages of their career, and 'All Things In Time' from Stuart Matthew Price is a breath of fresh air. Stuart and his producer Simon Greiff have put a tremendous amount of thought and skill into the selection, recording and treatment of each song on the CD. The result is an exquisite snapshot of the very best of contemporary musical theatre writing, performed by someone who has the intelligence and subtlety of voice to elevate that writing to it's full potential. This is not just a solo album, it's a landmark for the art form."
 
Dougal Irvine 

“SimG have come up with a wonderful album that is a must for all fans of musical theatre in all its varied forms. It was a pleasure to work with a singer like Stuart whose voice and talent seem never-ending! It is also a privilege to have my work featured on an album alongside composers such as Jason Robert Brown, Stiles & Drewe and of course Stuart himself! ‘Hope Springs Eternal’ was a joy to record with fantastic creative input from Simon Greiff and Stuart to arrive at what I hope is a song that does justice to Stuart's wonderful voice and an album that sets a benchmark for new writers of musical theatre. Thank you Stuart and Simon.” 
Richard Beadle 

“We have had the pleasure of working with Stuart Matthew Price on several projects over the last few years and his passion for new musical theatre has been evident throughout all of them. When he approached us with the idea for his album it made absolute sense for Perfect Pitch to support it. With the guidance and expertise of SimG Records producing the album, the result is a stunning advert for the amazing vocal versatility of Stuart as a performer, and the breadth of exciting writing talent that is currently making waves on both sides of the 'pond'.”
Andy Barnes from PERFECT PITCH

Reviews:

 “In these days of slick generic show voices Stuart Matthew Price stands out for his individual and excitingly immediate sound. This is a voice which looks you straight in the eye and tells it like it is with every song. That nine of those songs are first recordings only adds to the allure of this outstanding debut album. Price digs deep: the words matter, the emotional subtexts run high. The beautiful finisher - Jason Robert Brown's aspirational 'All Things in Time' with Brown himself at the piano - is alone worth the price of the disc.”
Edward Seckerson – The Independent

Why can’t all solo albums be this good? Half this good? It’s like a new song cycle written by the best of the new breed of theatre songwriters. Stuart is a talent of a generation, a star-on-the-rise with a once-in-a-universe quality, amply evident in each and every moment of this exemplary album. The duets are all divine too, with Louise Dearman, Cassie Levy and Annalene Beechey proving why they are West End leading ladies of the highest order. Their vocals could not be more different or singular - Dearman has a riff-tastic riposte to every phrase, Levy reveals an infectious inflection and a commanding quality, whereas Beechey sounds like one would imagine the voice of an angel herself would sound, a shiver-inducing instrument with a simultaneously revealed somberness and sweetness giving multiple mellifluous layers to the material she performs. ALL THINGS IN TIME is on some level the journey of a man in the world and the women he loves along the way, and what he learns from them. It’s a lesson - and a master class. ALL THINGS IN TIME is a breath of fresh air … catch it while you can.
Pat CerasaroBroadwayWorld

Price's clarion tones take on a variety of colors on this fantastic album showcasing contemporary musical theater composers. Among the myriad highlights are a soul-stirring version of Parade's "The Old Red Hills of Home," featuring composer Jason Robert Brown at the piano; and "Goodnight Kiss," with songwriter Laurence Mark Wythe at the piano and featuring Price at his most touchingly vulnerable. Annalene Beechey and Louise Dearman also join Price for two lovely duets.”
Andy Propst – TheatreMania

“It is very frustrating to know, that while the general public are continually fed the miserably small talents of Katherine Jenkins, Russell Watson and Susan Boyle as being “special”, glorious vocal talent such as is displayed on this fine CD is largely ignored. Stuart possesses a voice of considerable range and colour, combined with a fine histrionic ability ... This is a great album for the lovers of “serious” modern Musical Theatre songs (14 soul-searching and passionate), sung here by the clear tenor voice of a true Musical Theatre artiste.
Ken Caswell - MUSICAL STAGES 

 

Customer Reviews:

“A fantastic collection of new songs from great songwriters. This is a must for anyones music collection. I had heard of Jason Robert Brown, and I love his work, but the other writers were new to me. An excellent vocal from Stuart Matthew Price who definitely displays emotion in his voice. Buy it and see for yourself. You will not regret it.”
