The American Songbook Experience

Melanie Gall Presents—MTYP – Mainstage

You always know what you’re going to get with Melanie Gall, as her devotees well know. What a wonderful experience! This might be my favorite so far; and I’ve seen all of her shows.

This one is very personal; as she weaves expert renditions of American classics with a moving tale of her musician zaida, and his life long true love story with his wife. The beautiful, black and white photographs added so much depth and emotion to the show production. Many in the audience could be heard weeping at the end. If that’s not success, I don’t know what is. She deserves every bit of it. Brava!
