Harold Arlen Through Eric

In the annals of The Great American Songbook there is no more prolific and legendary a composer than Harold Arlen, composer of more than five hundred songs including his classic, Over the Rainbow, made famous by Judy Garland in the movie, The Wizard of Oz. In this Dallas Jazz Piano Society concert, Eric Willis, who hails from Louisiana, will be allowing the audience to discover for itself half-hidden Dixieland influences along with Southern riffs and breezes that can be found in Arlen's best-known works; He'll also reveal the emotions within the music that cause the famous composer's work to sound perennially young.
