The Great American Songbook represents the first (& finest) popular music that ever was. In this revue, specially produced by Max Wellman, audiences will be taken through the progression of this golden era of music, from the early works of Irving Berlin & Jerome Kern, through the classics from Gershwin & Cole Porter, all the way to the advent of great composers like Stephen Sondheim & beyond.

 

Wellman gives nuanced & entertaining background on the stories that made the music & the composers & performers who made it. Featuring a stellar jazz combo led by Wellman, this evening is perfect for any lover of jazz & standards or American pop culture.
