Bacharach & Friends is a musical tribute to one of the finest song writing teams in pop music history.
Join One of Australia’s Leading Ladies of Song, the beautiful voice of acclaimed chanteuse Melanie Parry as she takes you on a musical journey of the 60s singing some of the greatest hits of Burt Bacharach and Hal David.
Sing along to San Jose, Alfie, Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head, Wishing’ and Hoping’, Close to You, Always Something There to Remind Me, I’ll Never Fall in Love Again, A House is Not a Home, Don’t Make Me Over, What’s New Pussycat, I Just Don’t Know What to Do with Myself, I Say a Little Prayer, What the World Needs Now is Love Sweet Love and more...
These unforgettable Number #1 Hits were originally made famous by Cilla Black, Petula Clark, Dusty Springfield, Dione Warwick, Aretha Franklin, The Carpenters, Tom Jones, Gene Pitney, The Walker Brothers, Sacha Distel, Barbra Streisand, and many other stars of the day who all helped make the swinging sixties a standout era in musical history.
Burt Bacharach and Hal David, it is safe to say, wrote some of the world’s best known and much-loved songs during their heyday. Along with Cole Porter, Bob Dylan, Lennon & McCartney, and Paul Simon, Bacharach and David were visionaries who revolutionised the popular music of the 20th and 21st centuries.
Don’t miss all these great musical memories as Melanie Parry returns to bring you Bacharach & Friends!
