Barbara Cook Sings YOU MAKE ME FEEL SO YOUNG At Feinstein's 6/7-18

FEINSTEIN'S AT LOEWS REGENCY, the nightclub proclaimed "Best of New York" by New York Magazine, and "an invaluable New York institution" by The New York Post, continues its Spring 2011 season with the return engagement of Tony Award winning Broadway legend Barbara Cook from June 7 to June 18. For this exclusive run, her new show "You Make Me Feel So Young" features over a dozen songs new to her repertoire. She will include standards by Alan Jay Lerner, George Gershwin and Leslie Bricusse, in addition to jazz classics and numbers made famous by Frank Sinatra. All shows are at the Loews Regency Hotel (540 Park Avenue at 61st Street).

Barbara Cook - considered "Broadway's favorite ingénue" during the heyday of the Broadway musical - launched a second career as a concert and recording artist soaring from one professional peak to another. Her silvery soprano, purity of tone, and warm presence have delighted audiences around the world for more than 50 years.

Whether on the stages of major international venues throughout the world or in the intimate setting of a New York nightclub Barbara Cook's popularity continues to thrive - as evidenced the celebration of her 80th birthday in the Fall of 2007 with three sold out concerts with the New York Philharmonic at Avery Fisher Hall, her solo concert debut at the Metropolitan Opera (which made her the first female pop singer to be presented by the Met in the company's long history), and a succession of six triumphant returns to Carnegie Hall where she made a legendary solo concert debut in 1975. Miss Cook's ever-growing mantle of honors including the Tony, Grammy, Drama Desk and New York Drama Critics Circle Awards, as well as her citation as a Living New York Landmark, her induction into the Theatre Hall of Fame and Musical America's 2007 Vocalist of the Year award.

A leading star during the Broadway musical's "golden age" of the 50's and 60's, her many Broadway credits include the creation of three classic roles in the American musical theatre: Cunegonde in Leonard Bernstein's Candide, Marian the Librarian in Meredith Willson's The Music Man (Tony Award) and Amalia in Bock and Harnick's She Loves Me (Drama Desk Award). Last season she returned to Broadway for the first time in 23 years and received a Tony Award nomination for her performance in Sondheim On Sondheim. Earlier this year, she and Michael Feinstein released a duet CD Cheek To Cheek, recorded live at Feinstein's at Loews Regency. For more information, please visit www.barbaracook.com.
