MANDY PATINKIN IN CONCERT: Diaries
After 30 years, my musical collaborator Paul Ford retired. I wasn't sure if that meant I would have to as well. But my dear friend Bob Hurwitz introduced me to Thomas Bartlett, who introduced me to an entirely new way of making music—in his studio, hours of playing, singing, and recording, never searching for the illusion of perfection. We’ve shared our music-making journey in the form of the new recording MANDY PATINKIN: Diary. Singing onstage is one of the great joys of my life so I’ve created a new concert - a merger of my favorite Broadway and classic American tunes with selections from the recording of Diary. I’m very happy to share MANDY PATINKIN IN CONCERT: DIARIES, with Adam Ben-David on piano. |
To some, he’s the Tony Award-winning revolutionary from Evita who grew into a bonafide Broadway star in Sunday in the Park with George. To others, he’s the Emmy Award–winning Best Actor from “Chicago Hope” or CIA Agent Saul Berenson from the award-winning Showtime series "Homeland." And to others still, he will always be the man whose name is Inigo Montoya, the swashbuckling swordsman in The Princess Bride.
Whichever role you know him for, Mandy’s favorite is reaching out to live audiences with the power and the passion of popular song. He belongs to the special breed of singer who doesn’t merely dramatize songs, but incorporates them into his very being. And the result, Mandy Patinkin In Concert, is nothing short of electrifying. His interpretations of popular standards come straight from the heart, mesmerizing audiences from coast to coast. From Rodgers and Hammerstein to Stephen Sondheim, Harry Chapin, and back to Irving Berlin and Cole Porter.
“Mandy Patinkin is in the business of showstopping,” raves The New Yorker. “He is a musical force of nature!”
