WOS Radio: Michael Feinstein - American in LondonDate: 2 January 2008
In our latest Whatsonstage.com Radio podcast, Roger Foss meets Michael Feinstein, who is not only one of the premiere interpreters (and archivists) of the great American Songbook, but also a Broadway and West End performer, a four-time Grammy-nominated recording artist and co-owner of Feinstein's at Lowe's Regency in New York City. Before opening in his new concert, Michael Feinstein - An American in London, at the Shaw Theatre on 6 January 2008, he gives a peek preview of the show and talks about his latest album Hopeless Romantics, a tribute to the poetic songs of Oscar-winning composer Harry Warren, for which he has teamed up with veteran British-born jazz pianist George Shearing. He also reveals plans for his first foray into writing a musical theatre score. Thanks for listening! Related Content
