Lire tous les détails
This concert celebrates the music of Burt Bacharach, a composer who shaped 20th-century popular music with songs like "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" and "That's What Friends Are For." The Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra performs his works, with vocalists Rumer and Ed Harcourt.
Bacharach's compositions often feature atypical chord progressions and time signature changes, influenced by jazz. The evening offers a chance to hear these orchestral pop and easy listening classics performed live by a full symphony orchestra.
Over 1,000 artists have recorded Bacharach's songs, and his work earned six Grammy Awards and three Academy Awards. This concert presents a selection from his fifty-two U.S. Top 40 hits.
