Golden Stage Records was started by Syd Butler, who co-produced the new recording with Tony winner Len Cariou.
In April 2015 Butler and Cariou asked 11 Broadway artists to perform two songs of their choosing, with a trio of piano, bass, and drums. Following the performance the performers participated in an on-camera Q&A regarding their choice of songs and how they related to their career. The event was recorded live at The Cutting Room nightclub in Manhattan.
The track listing for the subsequent CD, which features 13 of these songs, follows:
“My Friends” performed by Len Cariou (written by Stephen Sondheim)
