IRVING BERLIN:
THE VOICE OF EVERYMAN
SATURDAY, JULY 12, 2008 | 7:00 PM
Will McMillan and Bobbi Carrey with Doug Hammer on piano
From “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” in 1911 to “Count Your Blessings” in 1954, Irving Berlin was the Voice of Everyman, putting into words and music what everyone felt to be true about their lives. He wrote tender love songs, waltzes, novelty songs, and show-stoppers — and by doing so managed to stay current and relevant long after others had fallen by the wayside. In appreciation of Berlin’s genius, this show offers songs by, and stories about, Irving Berlin.

Harvard
Pops Concert
Friday, April 18, 2003 at Paine Hall,
Harvard University
The Harvard Pops Orchestra presents their Spring Concert
with guest pianist Wei Jen Yuan '06 and guest vocalist Will McMillan
'84.
The Harvard Pops has been providing Harvard with fun, witty, and improbable
concerts since its inception in 1998. Under the direction of Arlington
resident Allen Feinstein '86, the orchestra performs three major concerts
each year. "Usually in the spring we just program music we like to
play, but this year we discovered a Rhapsodic theme" says Feinstein.
Highlights will include Gershwin's 'Rhapsody in Blue' along with his
second Piano Concerto, "a rarely heard work nicknamed 'Rhapsody in
Rivets' which started life as a film score," plus Queen's 'Bohemian
Rhapsody,' which is being arranged and conducted by Harvard undergrad
Hugh Daigle '04. Wei Jen Yuan '06 will be playing the challenging
music at the heart of the Gershwin Concertos, and Michael Callahan
'04 has arranged several songs for guest vocalist Will McMillan to
perform with the orchestra, including Kern/Hammerstein's 'The Song
is You'
and James Hanley's "Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart." McMillan
is delighted to be invited by Feinstein
to sing with the Harvard Pops Orchestra. "My favorite undergraduate
experience was singing with the
Din & Tonics, which at that time was an upstart young a cappella group
on campus" explains McMillan.
