About this event

The Great American Songbook and its legacy comes to thrilling life in songs that have become timeless standards. American popular songs from Gershwin to Joni Mitchell and Billy Joel!

Olivier- and Tony Award-garlanded Jamie Parker and Zara McFarlane – ‘a voice to cherish’ (Clash Music) – join forces with National Symphony Orchestra Ireland and the multi-award-winning, Golden Globe-nominated composer, arranger and conductor, Brian Byrne, in a rich array of iconic standards from the middle of the last century to the present day.

Modern classics such as Joni Mitchell’s Both Sides Now and Billy Joel’s New York State of Mind showcase the continuing vibrancy of the popular song in America.
