The New York Pops celebrates its 26th season with the arrival of new Music Director Steven Reineke. Combining Broadway and Hollywood, holidays and history, The Pops is a perennial crowd-pleaser that embraces "American popular music in all its diversity" (Playbill). One of the many highlights is Emmy winner Wayne Brady, who joins The Pops in a tribute to two American icons: Sammy Davis Jr. and Sam Cooke.
