The Broadway at Birdland concert series was proud to present "More About The Melody," hosted by Broadway cellist Mairi Dorman-Phaneuf. The one-night-only event took place on Monday, August 6.

Cellist Mairi Dorman-Phaneuf (Bridges of Madison County, My Fair Lady) hosted an evening that explored beautiful melodies from Broadway and beyond. Her very special guests were George Abud (The Band's Visit), Kerstin Anderson (My Fair Lady), Ariana DeBose (Summer, Hamilton), Claybourne Elder (Sunday In The Park With George), Adam Kantor (The Band's Visit, Fiddler on the Roof), and Julia Murney (Wicked, Lennon), plus a dazzling band.

Mairi Dorman-Phaneuf, a cellist originally from Scotland, is established as a solo, chamber, Broadway and recording artist. She has held chairs in sixteen Broadway productions, including The Bridges of Madison County, Sunday In The Park With George, A Little Night Music, and currently My Fair Lady. Her love of the Broadway genre has led to creating cello arrangements celebrating the music of Jason Robert Brown, Sara Bareilles, Adam Guettel, Jerry Bock, Stephen Schwartz and more. She has been a featured performer in concert with Christine Ebersole, Jeremy Jordan, Maria Friedman and Jason Robert Brown.

The Broadway at Birdland concert series takes place every Monday on the stage of the historic music room, located at 315 West 44 Street, in the heart of Manhattan's Theater District.
