Richard Glazier Salutes American Popular Song with a Tribute to Maurice Whitney
World famous PBS Pianist Richard Glazier makes a return trip to Glens Falls with his "Richard Glazier Salutes American Popular Song with a Special Tribute to Maurice Whitney." Mr Glazier performed at the Wood Theater in 2008 and has returned after some very big years which included his own PBS Special ; "From Gershwin to Garland" shown locally on WMHT. Included in his tributes to the great American composers will be a Tribute to Maurice Whitney, the foremost arranger of the Gershwin songbook. Maurice Whitney had many best selling sheet music arrangements of the great Gershwin hits and Mr Glazier will play them. Maurice Whitney was the Music Director at the Glens Falls High School for many years and conducted and directed for the Glens Falls Operetta Club (Glens Falls Community Theater). Many locals will remember Maurice and his great musical talent and Mr Glazier will give them a chance to hear Gershwin as Maurice did.
