Birdland will kick-off their exciting month of programming with the following acts

The Broadway at Birdland concert series was thrilled to present veteran jazz vocalist Cheryl Bentyne, who celebrated her new CD, reARRANGEMENTS OF SHADOWS, a tribute to Stephen Sondheim.

A lullaby is a simple expression of the most universal human condition, the bond between parent and child. One of the earliest lullabies in recorded history was written in 2000 BC, and 2018 marks the 150th anniversary of Brahms' Lullaby, so this precious musical tradition has deep cultural and emotional roots. These personal songs bring people together, span generations, and tell stories about where we come from, who we are now, and our hopes for the future.

Cheryl Bentyne has her standards.  In fact, along with her superstar vocal group The Manhattan Transfer, she has co-created some of the most iconic songs, arrangements and performances in the history of jazz and popular music.  Recordings of 'Twilight Zone,' 'Operator,' 'Java Jive,' 'Boy From New York City,' 'Tuxedo Junction,' and the iconic 'Birdland' have proven that a good singer shouldn't be confined to one specific style. 

The Broadway at Birdland concert series is proud to announce that veteran jazz vocalist Cheryl Bentyne will perform on the iconic stage Monday, March 5 at 7pm.  The concert will celebrate the singer's new CD, reARRANGEMENTS OF SHADOWS, a tribute to Stephen Sondheim.
