Amazingly hard music but when done correctly sounds fantastic.

Wow Steve, that was some Sonheim music!

stephen sondheim

A musical theater composer and lyricist, known for such works as Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Sunday in the Park with George, among many many others. He is widely regarded as a genius, for his extremely clever lyrics and inner-rhyming trickery.

I just saw Sweeney Todd, and it was the most brilliant and creepy thing I've ever witnessed. Stephen Sondheim is a genius.

Sondheimgasm

A large rush of pressure protruding through your body when you listen to music by Stephen Sondheim. Usually occurs during Sweeney Todd.

Wow, listening to "Sunday in the Park With George" just gave me a HUGE Sondheimgasm.

Stephen Sondheim

The greatest composer and lyricist ever to walk the great white way. He wrote the music to such masterpieces such as, Company, Sweeney Todd, into the woods, and Assassins. His music pulls your heartstrings and makes you feel the emotions the characters are feelings.

“Sure he is talented, but he is no Stephen Sondheim”

Sondheimmaniac

someone who fanatically loves everything Stephen Sondheim, the great Broadway musical genius, writes.

Richard knows everything about Stephen Sondheim musicals, and can and will discuss his works at a drop of the hat, he is such a 'Sondheimmaniac'!

sondheimian

Pertaining to the style of Broadway composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim. It can be used to refer to his lyrical style (his rhymes!), his music or his trademark wit.

Jonathan Larson's song 'Sunday' from Tick, Tick... Boom! is distinctly Sondheimian.
