Two entertainment powerhouses team up for a melodic journey through the Great American Songbook, showcasing the best of popular music from Broadway to Hollywood. There are few more qualified to do so than Feinstein and Hamlisch. American vocalist, pianist, musicologist and foremost interpreter for the songbook, the immensely talented Michael Feinstein has been hailed as the “quintessential New York voice.” (Pittsburgh Post-Gazette) Nominated for five Grammys, his rich vocal instrument and winning charm have made him a leading celebrity. Marvin Hamlisch—renowned composer, conductor, and musical director; winner of numerous Oscars, Emmys, Grammys, Golden Globes and a Tony; and dubbed “the consummate one-man extravaganza” by The New York Times—has created some of the best known and loved music of our time. His expansive collection includes the film scores for The Way We Were, The Sting, Sophie’s Choice, and Ordinary People, and the music for the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical A Chorus Line. This double headliner will feature each artist playing and singing his own set followed by a spectacular joint showcase with both luminaries performing together. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience these two great artists performing on the same stage!
This concert is part of the ARTS by George! benefit.
