N.Y. STATE: ECHOING BACK: THE SONGS OF JOHNNY MERCER
Fort Salem Theater once again provides a launching pad for new musical material as Broadway dance guru Karin Baker (42nd Street, Me and My Girl) introduces to the world-at-large her new concert salute to Broadway and Hollywood songwriter Johnny Mercer, in her show 'Echoing Back: The Songs of Johnny Mercer' at The MAINSTAGE AT FORT SALEM THEATER(11 East Broadway, Salem, NY - 518-854-9200) for one weekend only, Friday & Saturday, June 27th & 28th at 8:00 pm and Sunday, June 29th at 2:00 pm. Born in 1909 in Savannah, Georgia, Johnny Mercer wrote lyrics prodigiously from the 1930's to the 1970's, winning four Original Song Academy Awards and scoring dozens of recognizable hits. His Oscar songs, "On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe" (1946), "In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening" (1951), "Moon River" (1961), and "The Days of Wine and Roses" (1962) only begin to document Mercer's lasting effect on pop music in the twentieth century. Whether it was his early Hollywood lyric collaborations with Richard Whiting ("Too Marvelous for Words" and "Hooray for Hollywood") or his bi-coastal collaborations with Harold Arlen ("Blues in the Night," "Old Black Magic," "One for My Baby," "Come Rain or Come Shine"), or his own music and lyrics in "Dream," "I Wanna Be Around," and "G.I. Jive," his songs illustrate how an era's music could reflect a smoldering sensuality that bespeaks a romanticism unequaled in our modern era of blatantly obscene lyrics. Karin Baker has taken these songs and more written by Johnny Mercer and woven them into a performance of song and dance with three Broadway performers and Fort Salem's own artistic director, Jay Kerr, featuring Granville CSD music teacher Tim Patrick on bass.
