Sings American Masters - T1304253167Hear some of the greatest songs in the American musical theatre songbook performed in a rare Royal Festival Hall performance by Jessye Norman. Described by The New York Times as possessing 'an amazing voice, a catalogue of all that is virtuous in singing', Norman treats the audience to classics such as 'Somewhere' by Leonard Bernstein, 'You'll Never Walk Alone' by Rodgers and Hammerstein and 'Mack the Knife' by Weill and Brecht. Norman is a singer whose rich history of music making spans opera, recitals performances, contemporary music and jazz. In February of 2006, she became only the fourth opera/classical music singer in the 48-year history of the Grammy Awards to be presented The Lifetime Achievement Award for Classical Music. 'The immensity of her voice struck like a thunderbolt. It was like an eruption of primal power.' (The Jerusalem Post)Performer Mark Markham (accompanist). | |
