MUSIC
Here's to
There are only a handful of singers who can capture the heart of a song by infusing it with their own personality and making it feel as though it had been written especially for them. Songs like Holliday’s dark ‘Don’t Explain” to the multi-octave, high energy show tune “I’m Late” showcase Michele's remarkable emotional and technical range. She travels seamlessly between big band music with “Our Love is Here to Stay” to the poignant intimacy of 'Where Do You Start?'
