Last night, some of the Best songs from the Ann Hampton Callaway Songbook, were sung by Broadwayworld's Cabaret Performer of the Year, and on the stage of one of the best venues in the Cabaret world, 54 Below. From Sarah Vaughn to Barbra Streisand, accompanied by Ted Rosenthal she thrilled the overflow crowd. BroadwayWorld brings you photos of the event below!
Ann Hampton Callaway will be performing selections from her latest CD 'From Sassy to Divine: The Sarah Vaughan Project' to Barnes & Noble at 86th & Lexington Ave, NYC, on Thursday, December 11 at 7 p.m.
Last year at this time, Ann Hampton Callaway beamed love from the stage. This November, she's a newlywed. Though the musical life journey she shared last night at the opening of her new 54 Below show, Turning Points, contains a couple of dark numbers, on the whole it's celebratory. Callaway is incandescent. You'll feel it in your bones.
During her musically spectacular performance at 54 Below last night Ann playfully introduces her pianist as George Gershwin. Ted Rosenthal may probably be able to play Gershwin's music with more accuracy than the composer did. However, I'm sure George Gershwin would never be able to accompany Ann as good as Ted Rosenthal does.
