"They are the songwriting team that revolutionized musical theater and paved the way for many songwriters today. They dared to interject real pathos and social issues into their stories. The New York Pops and I are thrilled to welcome the brilliant performers Sierra Boggess and Julian Ovenden to Carnegie Hall to bring these songs to life for the opening of our 33rd Season. I know it will be an incredible concert, filled with genuine emotion and soaring melodies, rounded out by the incredibly skilled musicians of The New York Pops!"
