Did anyone attend? Was Barbara Cook on hand? Curious, due to her recent surgery.
Thanks.

Highlight of today's memorial for Jerry Bock was an audio recording of the composer himself singing SUNRISE SUNSET for the first time to send to Sheldon Harnick for lyrics. Brilliant, heartbreaking, perfection.

But the highlights were the recording of Jerry Bock singing "Sunrise Sunset", Harvey singing "If I were a Rich Man" and Kate Baldwin singing "Ice Cream". Overall it was a nice tribute to a great composer.
