NYC: MELBA MOORE PREMIERES "FOREVER MOORE" AT CAFE CARLYLE
The Tony Award-winning actress and singer Melba Moore makes her debut appearance at THE CAFE CARLYLE (35 East 76th Street, NYC - 212-744-1600 ) in an exclusive two-week engagement from Tuesday, April 26th through Saturday, May 7th. Performances are Tuesday through Saturday at 8:45 pm with a second show on Saturdays at 10:45 pm. In the premiere of "Forever Moore" the four-time Grammy-nominated Moore traces a remarkable musical journey reaching into the past and leading to the present. Moore, who has had numerous chart-topping hits throughout a long career, currently has a new number one on the Billboard R&B charts. "Love Is," from her new CD of the same name, has been holding on to the top ranking for four weeks and counting. In "Forever Moore" Moore reaches into the American Songbook for some early influences, passes through her hit-making 70's (she was a Best New Artist Grammy nominee in 1971) and opens it up with a treasure trove of seminal R&B touchstones, culminating with her current hit "Love Is." In the course of the evening Moore pays tribute to Ella, Lena and Aretha, the sophisticated ladies whose profound influences on her art and career she both acknowledges and celebrates. The music director is Levi Barcourt. There is a $65 cover charge.
