The Neil Sedaka Songbook

with Vision TV’s Alicia and Amanda Ault
and the Neil Sedaka All-Star Orchestra

The hits keep coming in this high-energy musical salute to a songwriting icon with a 60-year career! Neil Sedaka was a 1950’s teen pop sensation, a 1960’s chart-topping songwriter, and a 1970’s international superstar, continuing to write and perform until his retirement this year. He has written over 500 songs and sold millions of records worldwide.

Having personally worked with Sedaka over the years, Simon Spiro now treats us to anecdotes and songs. It’s a nostalgic, uplifting show, when we sing along to classic favourites as Calendar Girl, Love Will Keep Us Together, Laughter in the Rain, Breaking Up Is Hard To Do and countless more!

Simon Spiro is no stranger to Jewish Music Week as his sell-out shows have been highlights of JMW for years. He is known in his native England as “The British Jazz Singer” for successfully balancing dual musical careers in Cantorial and Pop Music. Recognized worldwide as one of today’s top Cantors, he has also made a mark in the pop world singing with Neil Sedaka, Marvin Hamlisch, Elton John, Faith Hill, Phil Collins, Cliff Richard and others. Simon performs internationally and currently serves as spiritual leader of The Song Shul. He can also be seen singing weekly on Vision TV’s series Your All Time Classic Hit Parade, hosted by Marilyn Lightstone.

Alicia and Amanda Ault, part of Canada's renowned vocal jazz trio, the Ault Sisters, are known for their signature close harmonies, reminiscent of such past vocal groups as The Manhattan Transfer, The McGuire Sisters and The Andrews Sisters.
