I grew up with songs and music from Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein (Carousel, South Pacific, The King and I, Oklahoma) and have always held these close to my heart ...beautiful and enduring.
This is a rare era of music. We may never see it again. All those musicals: Oklahoma, South Pacific, Seven Brides For Seven Brothers , Kiss Me Kate, kismet. What am I forgetting? Sound of Music? Fidler on the roof. Hello Dolly, Funny Girl??
