Pasadena Pops at City Hall Plaza

Jason Alexander was the M.C. for the Pops concert honoring Marvin Hamlisch who died this summer. He was the current Pops conductor who we enjoyed at the June and July concerts at the Arboretum. Larry Blank was the conductor for the tribute concert. We arrived to the music from Chorus Line "One" (by Hamlisch) sung by a chorus from JPL along with the John Brinegar Singers. Later Valerie Perri and Lisa Vroman, Broadway performers. sang songs from the "great American song book.
My favorite was a duet of "Happy Days are Here Again" Barbra Streisand style. Jason sang also ... Nice job with your new hair.
The singers returned for "What I Did for Love" finale plus "this ones for Marvin" "Memories Light The Corners of You Mind".
