MY FAVORITE THINGS: The Songs of Richard Rodgers

Anna Bergman, soprano | Howard Breitbart, musical director & pianist

Richard Rodgers is one of the world’s most brilliant and prolific composers. Anna Bergman celebrates songs he wrote with such iconic lyricists as Lorenz Hart, Oscar Hammerstein II and Stephen Sondheim and shares some first-hand stories from Anna’s Broadway colleagues and friends. You’ll enjoy classic songs from Rodgers Broadway and Hollywood musicals including Blue Moon, My Funny Valentine, My Favorite Things, Climb Ev’ry Mountain, Bewitched and Some Enchanted Evening.

Anna Bergman “thrills you with the sheer aural sensation of her voice” (THE WALL STREET JOURNAL) and has been hailed by THE WASHINGTON POST as “a vocal citizen of the world who triumphs in everything from Broadway tunes to opera arias and the sultry innuendoes of a cabaret chanteuse.” She is an internationally acclaimed cross-over artist who enjoys a career in concerts, theatre, opera, cabaret, with music festivals, symphony orchestras, on recordings and television.

“Wonderful, poignant and breathtaking, Anna makes classic songs seem vibrant and new.” (BROADWAYWORLD).

About the Rectory

Built in 1785 and the home of Classical Movements’ offices since 2014, the building formerly served as the rectory of the nearby historic Christ Church, once the church of George Washington. Since then, it has been owned by several distinguished Virginians and has been a commercial space since the 1960’s.

Located in the heart of beautiful Old Town Alexandria at 711 Princess Street, the Rectory is minutes away from the shops and restaurants of bustling King Street and is easily accessible by bus and metro.
