CHARLIE SINGS JUDYTHE CARNEGIE HALL CONCERT
April 23, 1961 — Judy Garland at Carnegie Hall. The greatest night in show business history. Charlie High revives Judy Garland's legendary concert through his own lens with a streamlined selection from Garland’s iconic set. Her marathon performance became a cultural earthquake; the resulting live album spent 13 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard charts and won five Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, making Garland the first woman ever to receive the honor. Backed by a four-piece band led by music director Drew Wutke, Charlie brings this music back to the spotlight - from torch songs to showstoppers that defined an era — honoring Judy, her artistry, and the night that became history. |
