Last summer, I produced a miniseries of episodes on Countermelody entitled “Forgotten Broadway,” the third and final segment of which was originally published as a bonus episode for my Patreon supporters. This week, my last one for the moment in New York City, is a busy one, so I have decided to pay tribute to the city by publishing that third Forgotten Broadway episode for all of my listeners. As I was preparing the series last summer, I enlisted the input and expertise of my dear pal John Coughlan. Like the first two episodes in the sequence, this one is once again, a veritable potpourri of delights, vocal, interpretive, and musical. It begins with a tribute to birthday icon Carol Burnett, who, at the beginning of her career, appeared in two different Broadway musicals, the second of which, 1964's Fade Out Fade In, is featured. Additional shows presented include, among many others, Salvation, Raisin, Mack and Mabel, Redhead, I Had a Ball, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Baker Street, performed by such favorites as Lisa Kirk, Melba Moore, Gwen Verdon, Robert Weede, Mary Tyler Moore, Rosemary Clooney, Liz Callaway, and Peggy Lee, alongside such lesser-known lights as Diana Davila, Walter Willison, Salena Jones, and Gilbert Price. In addition, there is the “added plus” [sic] of Bea Arthur delivering a comic monologue from the 1955 Shoestring Revue that will have you in absolute stitches. And just for the gays (and all those with equally good taste), Judy and Liza each stop by, Judy to deliver a Frank Loesser show-stopper, while Liza offers more of “A Quiet Thing,” from her first Broadway show Flora the Red Menace. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing. By clicking on the following link (https://linktr.ee/CountermelodyPodcast) you can find the dedicated Countermelody website which contains additional content including artist photos and episode setlists. The link will also take you to Countermelody's Patreon page, where you can pledge your monthly support at whatever level you can afford. Bonus episodes available exclusively to Patreon supporters are currently available and further bonus content including interviews and livestreams is planned for the upcoming season.

Her rich, perfect pitch voice and unique singing style, creating a brilliant blend of jazz and traditional pop, together with her trademark warmth and wit, have made her a renowned, sell-out concert artist across the country and internationally.

As a songwriter, she's simply phenomenal. She's the only composer to have collaborated with Cole Porter. She's written songs with many of the greats, including Carole King, Amanda McBroom, Shelby Lynn – and most recently, with my dear friend Melissa Manchester. And her songs are featured on EIGHT of Barbra Streisand's albums. She's recorded 16 critically acclaimed albums including, “Bring Back Romance”, “After Ours”, “Slow”, “Blues in the Night”, “Jazz Goes to the Movies”, 2 Christmas albums, 2 albums with her incredibly talented sister Liz Callaway. And now, following the enormous success of her tribute albums to Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughn, she's released her highly anticipated brand new album entitled, “Fever: A Peggy Lee Celebration”, containing 14 beautiful songs made famous by the legendary Peggy Lee. The list of accolades and awards our guest has amassed, is jaw-dropping. She got a Tony award nomination for Best Actress for her performance in the hit Broadway musical “Swing”. She's won the Theater World Award, 15 MAC Awards, the Mabel Mercer Award, and the Johnny Mercer Award for Songwriting. She was voted by Broadway World as “Performer of the Year”, and 2 years in a row as “Best Jazz Vocalist”. And last year, Broadway World named her “Entertainer of the Year”. And if ALL THAT weren't enough – yes, it's true – she's the one who wrote and performed that wonderful theme song for the hit TV show “The Nanny”.

Boundaries are the new hot topic but they've always been important!!

"Boundaries can be defined as the limits we set with other people, which indicate what we find acceptable and unacceptable in their behavior toward us. " "Good boundaries are about communication and you have to share with people what your boundaries are. And that comes as a result of communicating and expressing your needs and talking about your needs."- Liz Callaway "If you're having trouble with boundaries, look inside to yourself, like where are you valuing yourself? What is truly important to you and are you willing to accept the fact that you're the sovereign creator of your own life?" - Kellan Fluckiger Connect with my guests: Kellan Fluckiger: https://www.kellanfluckiger.com/ https://twitter.com/KellanFluckiger https://www.facebook.com/CoachKellanFluckiger https://www.instagram.com/kellan.fluckiger/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC08xIdPRo1ZHfyXtnJv1JDA https://www.linkedin.com/in/kellanfluckiger/ https://www.amazon.com/Kellan-Fluckiger/e/B009EFGGT6%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share Liz Callaway: https://bravepathforward.com/ https://www.instagram.com/bravepathforward/ https://www.facebook.com/BravePathForward Intro: "Welcome To The Kandid Shop"- BUSS_TE aka Anthony Nelson Outro: Unreasaonable Expectations- Rafa Sessions

His first essay in The New Yorker, "Quattrocento Baseball" appeared in May of 1986 and he served as the magazine's art critic from 1987 to 1995. His 2006 book, Through The Children's Gate: A Home In New York collected and expanded his essays from the previous five years about life in New York and about raising two children in the shadow of many kinds of sadness. It includes the much-anthologized essays “Bumping Into Mr. Ravioli,” about his daughter Olivia's imaginary friend, who is always too busy to play with her, and “Last of the Metrozoids,” about the life and last year of Kirk Varnedoe. In 2009, Gopnik completed Angels And Ages: A Short Book About Lincoln, Darwin And Modern Life, which became a national best-seller and which the Telegraph in London called “the essay every essayist would like to have written.”In addition to his work as a writer, Adam has been an active lecturer.

America tends to identify with the role of consumer … in France, everybody identifies as their roles as producers.” – Adam Gopnik“My wife has a beautiful capacity for connecting with people.” – Adam GopnikOn Amazon's business model: “It is the capitalist system in place and it has lead to a tremendous amount of inequality, but, also, it has lead to the ability of an Amazon (style business) to innovate in untold ways. ” – Syd Finkelstein“The coming of digitization has not destroyed the book business. People still buy hardcover books.” – Adam Gopnik“Any capitalist economy, the American one in particular, is designed to favor the interests of consumers over the persistence of producers.” – Adam GopnikAdvice from his father: “Never underestimate the other person's insecurity.” – Adam GopnikOn the reaction to the September 11, 2001 terror event: “The auto-immune reaction to that one terrorist event has done us infinitely more harm, most visibly and notably in the war in Iraq, than everything else.” – Adam GopnikOn living in New York City, New York after September 11, 2001: “We had to raise our kids in the shadow of that fear.” – Adam GopnikOn writing the Talk of the Town section of The New Yorker magazine: “Learning how to listen, learning how to observe, that was the great bootcamp of my life as a writer.” – Adam GopnikOn writing about his children now that they are adults: “Their story belongs to them now; the only story I can really write is about missing them.” – Adam GopnikStay Connected: Syd FinkelsteinWebsite: http://thesydcast.comLinkedIn: Sydney FinkelsteinTwitter: @sydfinkelsteinFacebook: The SydcastInstagram: The Sydcast Adam GopnikWebsite: adamgopnik.comTwitter: @adamgopnikLucky!

This week, Jamie and Rob sit down with self-proclaimed “theater nerd” Ted Chapin, whose knowledge and love of the theater extends well beyond his over 30 year career at The Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization, the licensing agency, rental library, and music publishing company that oversees the R&H catalogue, and countless others, including Irving Berlin, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and more. We talk about Ted's career at R&H, his favorite of their shows, and, of course, his incredible book, “Everything Was Possible”, an account of his time working on the original production of Follies. This week's music: The King and I ‘s“Finale to Act 1,” Lincoln Center Theater's South Pacific, City Center Encore's production of Pipe Dream “Overture” and “Sweet Thursday,” Liz Callaway singing “The Gentlemen Is A Dope” from Allegro and Alexis Smith singing “Could I Leave You” from Follies.

Frank Henry Loesser abandonó la universidad tras un año de estudios y probó fortuna en diferentes trabajos hasta que en 1935 conoció a una cantante a la que acompañaba al piano en sus actuaciones con la que terminó casándose en 1936. Se marchó a Hollywood donde comenzó escribiendo letras para canciones de películas de Universal y Paramount hasta que el estallido de la segunda guerra mundial le hizo alistarse en la armada, si bien siguió escribiendo letras para composiciones musicales de otros músicos. En 1944 escribió las letras del musical “HI YANK”, producido por el ejército para ser interpretado por y para los soldados desplazados fuera del país. La música la escribió nada menos que Alex North, el genial músico que más tarde escribiría las bandas sonoras de películas como "Espartaco", "Cleopatra", "Un tranvía llamado deseo" o la serie televisiva "Hombre rico, hombre pobre". Recibió el encargo de adaptar a musical la obra de Brandon Thomas “La tía de Carlos”, que con el título de “WHERE’S CHARLEY” se convertiría en todo un éxito, aunque Loesser siguió escribiendo letras de canciones para el cine, llegando a ser nominado al Oscar hasta en cinco ocasiones de las que sólo ganó el premio con la famosa “Baby, it’s cold outside”, para la película “La hija de Neptuno” (1949). Su siguiente trabajo fue su mayor éxito, “GUYS AND DOLLS” (1950), el musical que llevaría al cine Joseph L. Mankiewicz, titulado en España “Ellos y ellas”. "THE MOST HAPPY FELLA" (1956) fue su siguiente musical, centrado en la relación de un hombre mayor con una chica más joven que fue calificado por muchos más como una ópera que como un musical. A este le seguiría GREENWILLOW (1966) que dirigió George Roy Hill, con Anthony Perkins de protagonista, que no tuvo el éxito de sus anteriores obras. “HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS WITHOUT REALLY TRYING” (1961), sería su último gran éxito, del que nos hemos ocupado en el podcast de “Cuentame un musical” de este mes, ya que sus posteriores trabajos PLEASURES AND PALACES (1965) no llegó a estrenarse en Broadway y SEÑOR DISCRECTION HIMSELF (1966) fue un musical que no llegó a terminar ya que murió en 1969. Aquí os dejamos una selección de canciones suyas, en la que mientras no se indique otra cosa, la música y letras son de Frank Loesser.

Jennifer, Jamie, and Rob have a big “Take Two” to discuss, and Rob walks us through the Vomitorium (which probably isn't what you think it is). This week's music: Stevie Wonder's “Sir Duke,” “Big Easy” from “The Accidental Wolf,” Liz Callaway's rendition of Frank Losser's “My Heart Is So Full Of You,” and “Kindness” from “Bright Lights Big City."

This week Julie Miranda, and Zane chat with Jessica Kate Ryan about which of life's truths can be gleaned from Sondheim's infamous flop, Merrily We Roll Along!"...to be a Stephen Sondheim fan is to have one's heart broken at regular intervals. Usually, the heartbreak comes from Mr. Sondheim's songs -for his music can tear through us with an emotional force as moving as Gershwin's. And sometimes the pain is compounded by another factor - for some of Mr. Sondheim's most powerful work turns up in shows (''Anyone Can Whistle,'' ''Pacific Overtures'') that fail. Suffice it to say that both kinds of pain are abundant in ''Merrily We Roll Along,'' the new Sondheim-Harold Prince-George Furth musical that opened at the Alvin last night. Mr. Sondheim has given this evening a half-dozen songs that are crushing and beautiful - that soar, and linger, and hurt. But the show that contains them is a shambles." - By FRANK RICH, New York Times- FURTHER READING -Wiki - Musical, PlayiTunesSpotify- CELEBRITY SHOUTOUTS -Stephen Sondheim, George Furth, George S.

Luke Frazier, a rapidly rising star in the Pops world, has proven himself as both an innately musical conductor and a sensitive pianist. His commitment to re-envisioning pops programming has quickly established him as a dynamic force across the music community. Frazier has demonstrated his versatility and range by conducting in venues both grand and intimate, from Lincoln Center to Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center to the Rainbow Room. Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Marvin Hamlisch put it best, calling Frazier “so talented, and sensitive to every nuance.” As a testament to his mission to re-imagine pops programming, Frazier founded the American Pops Orchestra in 2015, presenting all original programming. This professional orchestra boasts outstanding musicians from New York and Washington DC, featuring leading Broadway singers, dancers, and celebrity performers. In only three seasons The American Pops Orchestra has already garnered rave reviews, including the following from The New York Times, “As much as any individual singer, what warmed the evening was the sumptuous lilt of The American Pops Orchestra, conducted by Luke Frazier.” His commitment to the American Songbook is also evident through his involvement on the Board of the Great American Songbook Foundation. In demand as a clinician, adjudicator, and speaker, Luke recently addressed the National Symphony Orchestra's “Summer Music Institute” students. He appeared as the Keynote Speaker for the National Society of Arts and Letters (NSAL) Award for Excellence in the Arts at the Kennedy Center and also addressed VSA Arts, an international organization for artists with disabilities. Mr. Frazier serves as the Artist in Residence with the DC Youth Orchestra and most recently presented a series concerts celebrating Ella Fitzgerald's birth. Mr. Frazier has worked with artists such as Wynton Marsalis, Renée Fleming, Chita Rivera, Rumer Willis, Andra Day, Darren Criss, Vanessa Williams, Liz Callaway, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Mo Rocca, Lea Salonga, Laura Osnes, Eric Owens, Marilyn Maye, Liza Minnelli, Rita Moreno, Lindsay Mendez, Michael Feinstein, Christine Ebersole, Elaine Paige, Arturo Sandoval, and Norm Lewis, among many others. In this episode, Luke shares his one way ticket to 10 years into the future. He also talks about the American Pops Orchestra, music today and the stimulating Washington, D.C. cultural landscape. Luke is just one of the extraordinary guests featured on The One Way Ticket Show, where Host Steven Shalowitz explores with his guests where they'd go if given a one way ticket, no coming back! Destinations may be in the past, present, future, real, imaginary or a state of mind. Steven's guests have included: Nobel Peace Prize Winner, President Jose Ramos-Horta; Legendary Talk Show Host, Dick Cavett; Law Professor, Alan Dershowitz; Broadcast Legend, Charles Osgood; International Rescue Committee President & CEO, David Miliband; Grammar Girl, Mignon Fogarty; Journalist-Humorist-Actor Mo Rocca; ; Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz, Jr.; Abercrombie & Kent Founder, Geoffrey Kent; Travel Expert, Pauline Frommer, as well as leading photographers, artists, writers and more.
The three longtime collaborators reflect on their work together and discuss what makes a song – and a friendship – stand the test of time.

Special Episode #10: Look who's blown back into podcastville! I've come around again, and this time, I've brought a special guest - I'm so happy to introduce the young and talented Gillian Goldberg!I had the good fortune to catch Gillian in the Barrington Stage production of Barry Wyner's Calvin Berger a few years ago. (If you listened to The BMI Workshop Songbook Podcast, you might remember Neil Patrick Harris' performance of another song from that show, "It Just Wasn't Meant to Happen.")Gillian's wonderful performance in the role of high school student Bret in that production was indelibly imprinted in my mind, so when I needed someone to sing the role of a teen-aged girl for a demo, I knew who to call...A graduate of The Boston Conservatory (aka BoCo), she's played other musical theatre high school gals as well: Cassandra in Saved (at The Kansas City Repertory Theatre) and Candi in Zanna, Don't (at Speakeasy Stage Company in Boston.)Today, Gillian sings "Just Because," one of two spec songs I was commissioned to write to audition to be the composer of an upcoming new musical. I didn't end up getting the gig, but I did get this song!Originally conceived as a trio for Gillian's character and her two best friends, today Gillian sings a retooled solo version, and as a bonus, I play the original demo as well, which, in addition to Gillian, features Nikki James and Dana Steingold as the two friends, Liz Callaway as Gillian's offstage mother, and in the role of Peg's Mother, my neighbor, Darcy, in her musical theatre debut. :-)Other places you can find Gillian these days? Check out the fashion blog she co-writes, A Gal's Right 2 Style.Incidentally, if you are a teen-aged girl (or an actress who plays teen-aged girls) and would like to sing "Just Because," the sheet music is now available from my online music store.This episode was recorded on March 14, 2011.
Special Episode #8: It's the day before Valentines Day, and I thought I'd offer up this little musical "Valentine," even in the wake of the performance of Anti-Valentines, the 24 Hour Musical that I wrote with Julia Jordan during one long, harrowing night last weekend to benefit The Exchange.After listening to my chat about it on this episode, I realize I didn't properly acknowledge my feelings about our leading lady, Celia Keenan-Bolger, so I would like to officially say that she is a genius and one of my favorite people to write for. (Yes, David, I know this should be "for whom to write," but I think it sounds and looks weird.)Coming up for me, a benefit concert with Liz Callaway (!!) at The Axelrod Arts Center aka my hometown JCC in Deal, NJ.Also, I'm in the last stretch of my year in Martha Stewart's Cooking School.

Special Episode #1: When I decided I wanted to use "Man in the Moon" for a *special* podcast episode, it came to me in about a millisecond who HAD to sing it: Nancy Anderson. Not only because she's an amazing talent and friend, but also because no one captures the sound of the 20's and 30's like Nancy. Check out her wonderful new solo CD, Ten Cents a Dance, for conclusive proof.Nancy and I met in 2001, performing together in the Broadway production of A Class Act, where she was my "show girlfriend." Nancy created the role of "Mona" in the Manhattan Theatre Club production and subsequently made her Broadway debut in that role when the show moved to the Ambassador. She had already created a sensation Off-Broadway in Jolson & Company, which earned her her first Drama Desk nomination.Since then, she has been dazzling audiences with her many stellar performances, most notably as Lois/Bianca in the revival of Kiss Me, Kate, first on the US Tour and then in the West End production, which was later filmed for PBS. (Does she nail the period or what?) Don't forget her wonderful performance in the 2003 revival of Wonderful Town! (Period!!) This past season, at the York Theatre, she won over critics and audiences alike in the title role of Fanny Hill. (She even nailed the 18th Century, as well as a second Drama Desk Nom!)If you're wondering whether she can pull off a contemporary role (yes!), then you must have missed her hot, hot performance in this year's Off-Broadway play, Burleigh Grime$.In this episode, Nancy sings "Man in the Moon", an audition spec song I wrote this summer. (What this means is, when producers are considering several different people or teams to write their new show, sometimes they'll ask them all to write songs for that project as part of the audition process.) The project in question takes place around 1930, and that's about as specific as I can be right now. (Recorded 11/3/06.)Luckily, you'll have some opportunities to see and hear Nancy coming up! Foremost among her many November appearances is her engagement at The Metropolitan Room, two Tuesday night shows, November 14 and November 28, at 9:30 PM. Not to be missed!And speaking of other things not to miss, I'd also like to remind you about the Jeff Blumenkrantz Songbook Concert at Birdland on Monday, November 20th at 7PM, featuring Liz Callaway, Victoria Clark, Michael McElroy, Mary Testa, and Alysha Umphress!

Episode #8: Singing with Liz Callaway is literally a dream-come-true for me. Ever since I first heard her spectacular voice on the Baby cast recording, I have marveled at the purity and musicality of her voice. What a privilege to have her on this podcast today, singing my duet setting of the Edna St. Vincent Millay poem, "Recuerdo." Recorded 1/31/06. (Click here to see the text of the poem.)Since her Tony-nominated performace in Baby, she's maintained flourishing careers on Broadway (Miss Saigon, Cats, The Look of Love), in film (providing the singing voice for the title characters in the animated films The Swan Princess and Anastasia), and in cabaret and recordings (check out her most recent CD, The Beat Goes On, and Sibling Revelry, the terrific recording of her show with her super-talented sister, Ann Hampton Callaway). Liz's discography is incredibly impressive, and rightfully so.
