"Send In The Clowns" comes from the 1973 musical "A Little Night Music" and 
was first sung by Glynis Johns.  Interestingly, "Send In The Clowns" won the 
Grammy for Song of the Year a couple of years later, when it appeared on Judy 
Collins album "Judith".  Sondheim credit Judy Collins for his Grammy win.
