2019 release, the first 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. 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.”
