Acclaimed singer and songwriter Ann Hampton Callaway returned to Birdland Jazz Club this week, ending her run tonight, January 26, 2013, of a special new show, 'Bridges' - inspired by the song by Brazilian composer Milton Nascimento. BroadwayWorld was there and brings you photos below!
Acclaimed singer and songwriter Ann Hampton Callaway will return to Birdland Jazz Club from January 22 to 26 with a special new show, "Bridges" - inspired by the song by Brazilian composer Milton Nascimento. The show will feature songs such as 'Let's Call the Whole Thing Off', "Chelsea Bridge", 'How Do You Keep the Music Playing?', "No One Is Alone" and 'Bridge Over Troubled Water." Her all-star trio will feature Ted Rosenthal at the piano, Martin Wind on bass and Tim Horner on drums. "Bridges" explores songs about how people connect and move beyond their differences, inhibitions and fears. "I am responding to the extraordinary polarization in our country at this time, says Callaway. "During the recent election, people became so hostile, forgetting about what they had in common and focusing only on their differences. Music has the power to heal and so I am offering a show that puts a new light on things for this new year, using the symbol of a bridge as a beautiful image to contemplate in all its forms." Callaway was recently honored with two BroadwayWorld.com New York Cabaret Awards for Cabaret Show of the Year and Best Tribute Show for "The Streisand Songbook" at 54 Below.
