Longwood Debut
Supported by the Carnegie Hall Ensemble, singer Michael Feinstein pays a heartfelt tribute to the legendary Tony Bennett, bringing his iconic songs to life in a symphony of sound.
Feinstein’s dynamic interpretations create an unforgettable night that honors the legacy of Bennett … while Feinstein’s close friendship with Bennett adds a profound layer, with their camaraderie bringing authenticity and depth to each note performed. The performance features such hits as Because of You, Rags to Riches, I Left My Heart in San Francisco, The Best is Yet to Come, I Get a Kick Out of You, Stranger in Paradise, and more.
Not only does Feinstein’s masterful interpretation of Bennett’s timeless repertoire pay homage to an era of classic songwriting, but it also preserves the rich cultural heritage that these songs represent. The show also brings to bear the history of Carnegie Hall. Icons from the 20th and 21st centuries have graced the stage of Carnegie Hall, from Benny Goodman to Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong to Ella Fitzgerald, and Frank Sinatra to Tony Bennett. A multimedia element of the show will help to bring this history to life onstage.
“Tony Bennett is one of the most enduring icons of the 20th century. He has created a body of work surpassed by none.”
