Marilyn Horne and Barbara Cook will perform Friday, October 3, at 8 pm at Symphony Hall in Boston.
Marilyn Horne and Barbara Cook are accustomed to audiences calling out for more. Marilyn was 20 when she made her operatic debut in 1954, almost fifty years ago. Barbara Cook was 30 when she starred as Marian the Librarian in the original cast of "The Music Man" on Broadway in 1957, more than 45 years ago.
But as one of the characters in a Barbara Cook cabaret song might say, they're still here. Still singing. Still teaching. And still willing to try something new.
After years of pursuing very different careers, they're now singing, together, songs from the Great American Songbook. And these two legendary singers, the real sopranos, are joining us here today
