Feb 7 – EPO Concert

Kenton went to a fundraiser for the EVSC (Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation) sports program to see Don Mattingly and some other sports superstars tonight. So, I went to work for awhile and then went to the Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra concert featuring the work of Rodgers & Hammerstein. The concert was incredible! There were three singers from Broadway and the Evansville Philharmonic Chorus there as well. Two men – one has been the Phantom on Broadway, and a woman who played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady. Needless to say, they were breathtaking!

Just a few of the songs performed were: It’s a Grand Night for Singing (State Fair), I Whistle a Happy Tune (King and I), June is Bustin’ Out All Over (Carousel), There is Nothing Like a Dame (South Pacific), My Favorite Things (Sound of Music) and Oklahoma! from, you guessed it, Oklahoma!
