Episode Information
IDINA MENZEL LIVE
BAREFOOT AT THE SYMPHONY
This special features Tony Award winning Broadway, television, and recording artist Idina Menzel, with an orchestra masterfully led by legendary composer/conductor Marvin Hamlisch from The Royal Conservatory's beautiful Koerner Hall in Toronto, Canada. The Concert is a wide ranging journey through the American songbook, Idina's personal catalogue, and fresh musical spins on contemporary songs. All of which is threaded together by Idina's irresistible charm and wit coupled with her unparalleled vocal prowess. Idina performs a whimsical duet and romantic dance with her husband, Taye Diggs of Rogers and Hart's Where or When as well as a touching rendition of The Way We Were. There is also a poignant version of No Day But Today from Rent, with the audience singing along at the chorus at the end of the song, and a spectacular version of Defying Gravity from Wicked.
