Roberta Flack Performs With the Pacific Symphony, 2/9-11

Just in time for Valentine's Day, Pacific Symphony fills the hall with love songs featuring legendary vocalist Roberta Flack singing sweet and sultry ballads from her chart-topping career. Internationally hailed as one of the greatest songstresses of her generation, Flack effortlessly traverses a broad musical landscape from pop to soul to folk to jazz. One of only two artists to win back-to-back Grammy Awards for Record of the Year, Flack has immortalized the songs, "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" and "Killing Me Softly with His Song," which she performs along with such hits as "Where Is the Love," "Tonight I Celebrate My Love" and more.

Led by Principal Pops Conductor Richard Kaufman, the concert takes place Thursday through Saturday, Feb. 9-11, at 8 p.m. in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. 

The concert's first half features Cody Morgan-last year's winner of the Symphony's amateur singing competition "OC Can You Sing?"-performing timeless love songs from Broadway, including his winning rendition of "If Ever I Would Leave You" from "Camelot."

Backed by the orchestra, he performs "My Funny Valentine" from "Babes in Arms," "If I Can't Love Her" from Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" and "Who Can I Turn To?" from "The Roar of the Greasepaint-The Smell of the Crowd." The orchestra also performs the Main Title from "Star Wars" and "Gonna Fly Now," the theme from "Rocky." Tickets are $25-$160.
