PBS has released a new clip of Cynthia Erivo from Great Performances: Henry Mancini 100 at the Hollywood Bowl, a special concert honoring the work of the iconic composer. In the clip, the Wicked star performs a rendition of 'Days of Wine and Roses,' first heard in the 1962 film of the same name. The full special is now streaming on PBS.

Hosted by Jeff Goldblum, the starry concert features performances by Erivo, Grammy Award winner Michael Bublé and Grammy nominees Dave Koz and Monica Mancini, Henry Mancini's daughter.
