This past Monday, Tony winner Tonya Pinkins sang a heartfelt "Good Morning Heartache,"Dani Shay and Ali Stroker from "The Glee Project" thrilled everyone with their performances, Capathia Jenkins wailed "Natural Woman," William Blake sang the blues, composer Ken Hirsch sang his pop hit "No One In The World" (and a bit of "I've Never Been to Me"), Dallas diva Denise Lee won new fans, Jeff Harnar gave a taste of his upcoming Birdland concert, Gabrielle Stravelli jazzed-up the proceedings, Bayside! The Musical's leading man John Duff crooned, Christine Lavin had the crowd screaming with laughter, and Natalie Douglas killed, as always. The Cast Party Symphony Orchestra (Tedd Firth, Steve Doyle and Carmen Intorre) accompanied the performers with their usual flair and musical dexterity.
