AUDIO SHARE: Dave Willetts Singing Petula Clark, Dee Shipman’s "(I Love You) Ti Amo"

Stage Door Records has shared an exclusive track from Dave Willetts’ new album Once in a Lifetime for streaming on TheaterMania. As previously announced, the album will be released on May 28.

In addition to the streaming track, Petula Clark and Dee Shipman’s “(I Love You) Ti Amo” from the musical J’Accuse…! The Passions Of Emile Zola, the disc includes selections from such well-known shows as Sweeney Todd, Brigadoon, Follies, The Phantom of the Opera, Jekyll and Hyde, and Oklahoma!.

Clark and Shipman began work on their musical based on the life of the French author in 1988, and although the musical had developmental work done at the time, a production never came to fruition and the score remained incomplete. The pair have since begun work on a new studio concept recording, featuring not only Willetts, but also Meredith Braun, Jill Martin and Martyn Ellis.
