This reviewer was overwhelmed by the acclaimed musical Tour de Force that is Michael Feinstein and the marvelous Carnegie Hall Big Band at the March 27th edition of Standard Time with Michael Feinstein.

'For Once in My Life I have someone who needs me...' goes the song. Now there's the show we need, packed with entertainment and insight, that tells about the songs of its lyricist, Ron Miller.

'For Once in my life, I have someone who needs me...' and WE need to hear this and more written by the man who wrote those words sung by Stevie Wonder, Frank Sinatra, and a zillion others, including his daughter (whom we interview) and her son. (Both will be in the show on October 8.)

JUDY – O ARCO-IRIS E AQUI is a non-linearly play intertwines Judy Garland's biography with Luciana Braga's personal story, in a metalanguage that navigates between past and present, fiction and reality, shedding light on the internal and external struggles that the artist still faces.

The legendarily spoken of last concert of Judy Garland has been digitally mixed, mastered, and restored and it is a respectful, loving look at the legend's last days.

Michael Feinstein recently played Carnegie Hall and Andrew Poretz joined Broadway World Cabaret (on loan from Sandi Durell's Theater Pizzazz) to report on the elegant evening.

High Definition Tape Transfers, which specializes in high-definition releases of classical, jazz and pop classics and whose extensive catalogue goes from Duke Ellington to Gustav Mahler, is proud to announce the high-definition release in 2018 of Judy Garland's very last concert, recorded at Falkoner Centret in Copenhagen, Denmark on March 25, 1969.
