dear friends,

I hope you're staying safe and well and having a great start to 2022. 

Words cannot express the joy that myself and everyone at The New York Pops felt when we returned to Carnegie Hall this past December for a truly fantastic concert with Kelli O'Hara. We will be back at Carnegie Hall on February 4 with our friends Tony DeSare and Capathia Jenkins for "Get Happy: That Nelson Riddle Sound." This belated celebration of Nelson Riddle's centennial will be unlike any other tribute to this legendary arranger-composer. We hope to see you there!

Later in our season, Norm Lewis will join us on March 4 for an all-new program highlighting his career on stage. "One Night Only: An Evening with Norm Lewis" will mark Norm's solo debut at Carnegie Hall. Tickets are still available - it's bound to be a terrific night!

Lastly, make sure you're saving the date for our 39th Birthday Gala which will take place on Monday, April 25. Our Music Honorees will be the Oscar, Grammy, and Emmy Award-winning, married songwriting team behind Disney's Frozen, Pixar's Coco, and more: Kristen and Bobby Lopez! We're assembling an incredible line-up of guest artists to help us celebrate Kristen and Bobby's work. Stay tuned for more info in the weeks ahead!
