Billy Stritch

A MUSICAL NIGHT OUT WITH BILLY STRITCH
Renowned pianist and singer Billy Stritch presents an evening of his favorite music and stories in a intimate musical outing. Equally at home in the worlds of jazz, traditional and contemporary pop and Brazilian, Billy puts his inimitable spin on songs by composers as varied as the Gershwins, Barry Manilow, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Peter Allen and so many more. He performs with a natural ease and spontaneity and, as Patrick Honoré of Musical Theatre Review wrote, he “really has the gift of communicating with his audience and holding them in the palm of his hand, even though his hands are often on the keyboard!” Of this show’s 2023 premiere at New York’s famed Birdland Jazz Club, Will Friedwald of The New York Sun said, “Mr. Stritch has the technique to play almost anything he wants, and more than most musicians who have worked so extensively in cabaret and musical theater, he is at heart – and on the surface – a jazz musician.” Join Billy as he performs an evening of sophisticated melodies and lyrics enveloped in dazzling harmonies as only he can!
