On My Mind – Memories, Dreams, and Fantasy

“I Dreamed a Dream” is a song from the 1980 musical Les Misérables. It is a lament that is sung during the first act by the character Fantine, who has just been fired from her job at the factory and is thrown onto the streets. She thinks back to happier days and wonders at all that has gone wrong in her life. The music is by Claude-Michel Schönberg, with orchestrations by John Cameron, and arranged by Michael Brown.

The Alto Saxophone solo in this recording is performed by our very own Andrew Hedgecock!

Winterfest ’23

“White Christmas” is an Irving Berlin song reminiscing about an old-fashioned Christmas setting. The song was written by Berlin for the 1942 musical film Holiday Inn and won the Academy Award for Best Original Song at the 15th Academy Awards. The version sung by Bing Crosby is the world’s best-selling single (in terms of sales of physical media), with estimated sales in excess of 50 million physical copies worldwide. When the figures for other versions of the song are added to Crosby’s, sales of the song exceed 100 million.

Joining us for this performance is the very talented Isabelle Kosempa!

Cabaret

“America” is a song from the 1957 Broadway musical “West Side Story” that was made into films in 1961 and 2021. The music is composed by Leonard Bernstein with lyrics by Stephen Sondheim.
In the original stage version, Anita, the most important female character after Maria,  praises America while a fellow Puerto Rican, Rosalia, supports Puerto Rico. This version of the song deprecates the island and highlights the positive qualities of American life.

Our performance features the wonderful The Graceful Expressions Company!
