The Bernstein Experience

Son of Broadway composer Moose Charlap and TV singer Sandy Stewart, Bill Charlap has American song in his DNA. In this program, Charlap brings us on a guided tour of American Popular Song—from Berlin and Bernstein’s Broadway to the Harlem stride of Eubie Blake and Fats Waller, to the singular songbook of Duke Ellington—with other exciting stops along the way. Special guests and legendary vocalists Mary Stallings and Freddy Cole join the Bill Charlap Trio on stage.
