Editorial Reviews

This is the first new album from the acclaimed vocalist and actor in over 15 years. Children and Art is a collection of covers that he has performed with the musician/producer Thomas Bartlett. The sparse recordings featuring Mandy’s powerful, almost operatic voice and Bartlett’s eary minimal piano/mellotron playing include covers of a diverse array of artists including Tom Waits, Randy Newman, Rufus Wainright, Teitur, Chocolate Genius, Laurie Anderson, Lyle Lovett and Stephen Sondheim. Mandy will be embarking on a US tour this Fall that will extend into 2020.
About the album, Patinkin explains, “After thirty years my musical collaborator, Paul Ford retired. I wasn’t sure if that meant I would have to as well. But my dear friend Bob Hurwitz [of Nonesuch] introduced me to Thomas Bartlett, who introduced me to an entirely new way of making music … in his studio, hours of playing, singing, and recording, never searching for the illusion of perfection.”

I like Mandy Patinkin and have quite a few of his CDs. This one was good but some of the songs were sad. It was nice to read the lyrics while listening to the songs. Thank you

The voice isn't as strong as it used to be. Whose is? But there is still the delivery and the wisdom. Highly recommended.

The CD seems to be ok, although I have yet to listen to it. I thought I was ordering a NEW product. This happened to me during Christmas time also from another vendor. This was supposed to be a gift. I will find something else.

This is a different take on Mandy's choice of songs. With the exception of Sondheim, he doesn't usually record contemporary music. I like it. I don't know if I would want him to do only this sort of material but it is a new and appealing take and his voice, as usual, is such a treat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Patinkin has never just been Sondheim
Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2019
The people panning this album seem unaware of MP's ongoing interest in historical and non-Broadway hit pieces. This makes him a much more interesting singer and thinker and actor.

1.0 out of 5 stars Why So Serious?
Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2020
Verified Purchase
"Children And Art," Mandy Patinkin's latest album was, at best, a vast disappointment. This fan has all of Mandy's albums, and has attended several of his live shows, loving every moment. But this album departs from the style of the previous ones, with selections so bleak and sparse (piano/vocal arrangements only) that it leaves one wondering what traumas Mandy Patinkin suffered in the 18-or-so years since his last album. Gone is the fun-loving, "Kidult" Mandy. Why so serious? I do not recommend this album for fans of his usual fare, as I wish I could erase the music from my mind. Where's Paul Ford when you really need him?
