Beggar Woman's Lullaby

Does anyone know if there is a recording of this anywhere?

if you're referring to at the end of the show, just before her throat is slashed - check out the pro-shot dvd with Lansbury and Hearn. it's on there. Cool

Yes. its on the concert. i was lucky enough to have had the chance to sing it when I played Beggar Woman .

I know that it deters from the subtley of the music and the scene (or, more importantly, the surprise to come), but I love the lullaby, none-the-less--it's a shame that it is so rarely done. I got lucky and found someone on the IMDb who recorded it from the concert production and sent me a copy.

Nope. It was first heard in the original London production with Denis Quilley in 1980.
