Last night, October 12, the Broadway at Birdland concert series was thrilled to present LYRICALLY, THE SONGS OF ALAN AND MARILYN BERGMAN, featuring Alan Bergman with Mike Renzi (piano) and David Finck (bass). Scroll down for photos from the concert!
This rare and intimate performance by one of the greatest living American songwriter/lyricists packed the historic music room with family, fans and famous friends of Mr. Bergman like Stephen Sondheim, Joel Grey, former Mayer David Dinkins, Ginny Mancini, and Alan's beloved wife and writing partner, Marilyn Bergman.
The songs of Alan and Marilyn Bergman have been enriching the great American songbook for over five decades. As lyricists for film, stage and television, they have created many unforgettable images with their lyrical mastery. Theirs is one of the most successful songwriting collaborations in an era of great popular music. They have earned numerous awards, including 16 Academy Award nominations, multiple Emmys, Grammys, and three Oscars for "The Windmills of Your Mind", "The Way We Were", and the score for "Yentl."Photos by Kevin Alvey
