Symphony of the Americas: Elvis and Sam

Elvis Presley and Sam Cooke dominated and helped define the worlds of rock and roll and soul music at their inception and ever since. With hits like Hound Dog, A Change Is Gonna Come, Jailhouse Rock, You Send Me, Can’t Help Falling in Love, Bring It On Home to Me, and so many more, these two men rank among the most influential hitmakers in American music history. Beyond their impact as individual artists, they deeply admired one another and made that respect known. In this concert, we’ll share that remarkable story alongside brand-new orchestrations of their iconic music, brought to life by a lineup of Broadway and pop music’s brightest lights.
