My Funny Valentine; even if Rodgers and Hart had only written this one song their legacy would have been cemented into the Great American Songbook. But these two young Jewish boys who met at Columbia went on to produce more than 500 songs, 28 stage musicals and 8 movies, writing songs that continue to be recorded and enjoyed today. If you’re a Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett fan, you probably heard or watched their remarkable recording of Lady Is a Tramp. Glee fans enjoyed a show-stopping rendition of the same song. Today, Michael Buble and Dianna Krall fans thrill to the same Rogers and Hart tunes that Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald popularized. On April 25th, the Great Room at Weymouth will swing with these melodies as John Hatcher and Friends present another concert in the Great American Songbook Series.
