LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER
ONE SINGULAR SENSATION
CELEBRATING MARVIN HAMLISCH
MONDAY, DECEMBER 31 @ 6:00PM & 11:00PM
The New York Philharmonic had engaged Marvin Hamlisch, the famed composer of many of our most beloved songs of stage and screen, to conduct this year’s New Year’s Eve concert in Avery Fisher Hall on Monday evening, December 31. Tragically Hamlisch died suddenly last August at the age of 68. And so the concert will be a musical celebration of Hamlisch’s life and his remarkable output. Furthermore, it will reunite two stalwarts of the Broadway stage, Conductor Paul Gemignani and Director Lonny Price, both of whom brought to our Live From Lincoln Center audiences the remarkable Philharmonic performances of Sondheim’s “Sweeney Todd,” “Passion” and “Company,” and Bernstein’s “Candide.” …By Martin Bookspan
