| Karen Oberlin at the Metropolitan Room Jazz-pop singer Karen Oberlin returns to The Metropolitan Room for one night only (Tuesday, November 13th) with her highly acclaimed show, “Like Love: The Popular Songs of Andre Previn,” for which she was a finalist for the critics' Nightlife Awards in 2007. Audiences will be delighted and surprised by this varied collection of extraordinary songs -- some beloved, some virtually unknown, by a master composer who defies category. Lyricists Dory Langdon (Previn), Johnny Mercer, Alan Jay Lerner, the Bergmans, Comden and Green and others, joined Andre Previn to create the stuff of a show rich with complex emotions, substance, and delicious wit. Arrangements, musical direction and accompaniment by the incomparable Tedd Firth joined by Sean Smith on bass. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Jazz News :: home page |
