Two of the Great American Songbook’s most celebrated interpreters bring timeless standards, sparkling chemistry and incomparable vocal artistry to the Gogue Center.

Michael Feinstein

Michael Feinstein has built a dazzling career over the last three decades, bringing the music of the Great American songbook to the world. From recordings that have earned him five Grammy Award nominations to his Emmy nominated PBS-TV specials, his acclaimed NPR series and concerts spanning the globe, his work as an educator and archivist defines Feinstein as one of the most important musical forces of our time. 

In 2007, he founded the Great American Songbook Foundation, dedicated to celebrating the art form and preserving it through educational programs, master classes, and the annual High School Songbook Academy. He serves as artistic director of the Palladium Center for the Performing Arts, a $170 million, three-theatre venue in Carmel, Indiana, which opened in January 2011.  

Through his live performances, recordings, film and television appearances, and his songwriting (in collaboration with Alan and Marilyn Bergman, Lindy Robbins, Bob Merrill and Marshall Barer), Feinstein is an all-star force in American music. 

Kelli O’Hara

Kelli O’Hara has established herself as one of Broadway’s greatest leading ladies. The Tony Award winner, Emmy, SAG, and Grammy-nominated actress has appeared in thirteen Broadway shows for which she has garnered nine Tony Award nominations.  

O’Hara won the 2015 Tony Award for Best Leading Actress in a Musical for The King and I. She received an Emmy Award nomination for her portrayal of Katie Bonner in Topic’s hit web series, The Accidental Wolf, and can currently be seen on HBO’s The Gilded Age 

In 2015, O’Hara made history as the first artist to make the crossover from Broadway to opera when she made her Metropolitan Opera debut in Lehár’s The Merry Widow opposite Renée Fleming. In 2024, she won the Outer Critics Circle Award and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Lead Performer in a Broadway Musical. 

Most recently, she starred opposite Tom Hanks in the world premiere of the off-Broadway play This World of Tomorrow and can be seen in the CBS series Sheriff Country and Ryan Murphy’s FX series The Beauty

There’s a good reason Michael Feinstein has earned the reputation of “ultimate interpreter” of the American songbook: he crafts every note with delicate care, connects phrasing seamlessly, and pairs reverence with verve.
