SUMMARY:Michael Feinstein in Because of You My Tribute to Tony Bennett featuring the Carnegie Hall Big Band - Free Event
DESCRIPTION:The Phyllis and Bob Cowan Performing Arts Series presents Michael Feinstein as he brings to life Big Band Celebrations and the Tony Bennett legacy.  Supported by the Carnegie Hall Big Band\, Feinstein pays a heartfelt tribute to the legendary Tony Bennett\, bringing his iconic songs to life in a symphony of sound. \nFree Event \nBecause of the geneous endowment bestowed to Midland College by the late Phyllis and Bob Cowan\, this event is FREE.  Tickets are not required for general admission seating.  Preferred seating is available for Friends of the Series and Midland College Distinguished Donors ($1\,000 minimum donation in 2025). Contact the Midland College Foundation\, (432) 685-4526\, for more information about preferred seating opportunities. \nAbout the Performance \nThe performance will feature hits such as “Because of You\,” “Rags to Riches\,” “I Left My Heart in San Francisco\,” “The Best is Yet To Come\,” “I Get a Kick Out of You\,” “Stranger in Paradise” and many more.  Feinstein’s dynamic interpretations\, coupled with the grandeur of the big band\, will create an unforgettable night that honors the legacy of Tony Bennett in all its glory. \nMichael Feinstein’s close friendship with Tony Bennett adds a profound layer to this tribute\, as their camaraderie brings authenticity and depth to each note performed.  Not only does Feinstein’s masterful interpretation of Bennett’s timeless repertoire pay homage to an era of classic songwriting\, but it also preserves the rich cultural heritage that these songs represent. \nThe show also brings to bear the history of Carnegie Hall\, which has been connected to the American big band for decades.  Icons from across the 20th and 21st centuries have graced the stage of Carnegie Hall\, from Benny Goodman to Duke Ellington\, Louis Armstrong to Ella Fitzgerald and from Frank Sinatra to\, of course\, Tony Bennett.  A multi-media element of the show will help to bring this history to life onstage. \n“Tony Bennett is one of the most enduring icons of the 20th century.  He has created a body of work surpassed by none.” – Michael Feinstein \n(This show is not affiliated with the Tony Bennett Estate.)
