Feinstein Release Updated 9-16-10
MICHAEL FEINSTEIN’S AMERICAN SONGBOOK PREMIERES THIS FALL ON PBS Three-Part Series Explores the History of American Popular Music Through the Performances and Adventures of Its Most Passionate Preservationist Airing October 6, 13, and 20, 2010 at 8 PM on PBS (Check local listings) NEW YORK – Premiering Wednesday, October 6 on PBS, the three-part series MICHAEL FEINSTEIN’S AMERICAN SONGBOOK, produced and directed by Amber Edwards of Hudson West Productions, embarks on a dynamic road trip through the glorious history of American song by the acclaimed musician and five-time Grammy®-nominated vocalist. Viewers accompany Feinstein on-stage and backstage, hear him interpret great standards, listen in on personal stories about the songwriters and entertainers he’s known and worked with over three decades, and join him on his quest to find and preserve rare treasures of classic American music. “When I first moved to Los Angeles,” Feinstein says in the show, “I discovered that movie studios would throw away archives, music publishers would get rid of old arrangements, manuscripts would be discarded, and complete orchestrations for shows would be tossed out. Our musical heritage was literally disappearing because people didn’t understand it was valuable to save it.” MICHAEL FEINSTEIN’S AMERICAN SONGBOOK chronicles Feinstein’s lifelong mission to keep the Great American Songbook alive, as he preserves and passes along the lyrics and melodies of songwriters like George and Ira Gershwin, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, and Rodgers and Hart, all while performing more than 150 shows a year across the country. The series follows the meticulous musician as he rummages though cluttered basements and dusty attics, sifts through piles in packed storage lockers, and unearths obscure items in flea markets.
