Guest Performer:

Joan Ellison

Songstress Joan Ellison brings Judy Garland’s original symphonic arrangements back to life in a nostalgic trip from technicolor Hollywood to Carnegie Hall!

The hit parade includes “The Trolley Song,” “The Man That Got Away,” “Get Happy,” “Come Rain or Come Shine,” “Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart,” “Stormy Weather,” “The Boy Next Door,” “Chicago,” “That's Entertainment,” and, of course, “Over the Rainbow.” 

Joan Ellison has been praised for her "vocal prowess....[and] organic grasp of the classic songs" by Michael Feinstein, and has made a specialty of reviving Judy Garland’s repertoire from her golden Hollywood years, live concerts, studio recordings, and television shows. Of her NYC solo cabaret show at 54 Below, Cabaret Scenes Magazine wrote: “[Joan is] Judy-esque in appearance and...a near voice double for her idol.”

She made her Cleveland Pops Orchestra debut at Severance Hall in 2005 and has since sung more than 70 symphony concerts coast-to-coast. 

Ticket sales are not refundable.
