Stephen Sondheim died on November 26, 2021, but for countless fans around the world, he is "still here," to quote one of his lyrics. With acclaimed revivals of his landmark shows occurring around the world and introducing new generations to the man who transformed American musical theater, Sondheim's legacy has only grown. What is it about such classic songs as "Rose's Turn" from Gypsy, "Send in the Clowns" from A Little Night Music, and "Children Will Listen" from Into the Woods that speaks to us so intimately and profoundly?
