Broadway to Main Street

A terrific Noël Coward score launched Elaine Stritch on the voyage to stardom in this 1961 musical. We play selections from the Broadway cast album, the London cast album and more, including performances from the Master, too. (Support from the Noël Coward Foundation.) 

It's witchcraft--and a great season for witches on "Blood-vay to Main Street'! Count Larry Maslon cooks up a cauldron of tunes from Wicked, The Wizard of Oz, The Wiz and more.

It's great big show on "Broadway to Main Street": Norbert Leo Butz joins us for selections from The Last Five Years, Dirty Rotten Soundrels, My Fair Lady, and more.

Let the drums roll out--MasterVoices leader Ted Sperling joins me to discuss this new version of the Gershwins/Kaufman classic musicals, with songs in renditions by Frank Sinatra, Sarah Vaughan, Kiri Te Kanawa, Tony Bennett and more.

Birthdays and Broadway: from Rodgers and Hammerstein to Jason Robert Brown--with a lot of birthday candles in-between.

We welcome in 5785 with a repertoire of great Jewish influences on the Broadway musical: Al Jolson, Fiddler on the Roof, Fanny Brice, Harmony and so much more.

Our tribute to the "King of Café Society" includes indelible performances of material by Cole Porter, Rodgers and Hart, Noël Coward and more.

All you have to do is dream--and tune into our broadcast: Jennifers Holliday and Hudson, Beyoncé, Audra McDonald, Diana Ross and more deliver one of the great scores of the 1980s.
