Melissa Errico at Birdland

Back for her fourth sold-out Valentine’s run, Tony-nominated chanteuse Melissa Errico turns Birdland’s jazz theatre into the city’s sexiest, coziest, most romantic hideaway. This year, Melissa brings a world-class jazz quartet and dives deep into the Great American Songbook — revitalizing long-beloved standards with her unmistakable blend of wit, warmth, and sensual swing.

Back for her fourth sold-out Valentine’s run, Tony-nominated chanteuse Melissa Errico turns Birdland’s jazz theatre into the city’s sexiest, coziest, most romantic hideaway. This year, Melissa brings a world-class jazz quartet and dives deep into the Great American Songbook — revitalizing long-beloved standards with her unmistakable blend of wit, warmth, and sensual swing.

Accompanied by Andy Ezrin (Chris Botti, Madeleine Peyroux) on piano and Brian Koonin (Barbra Streisand) on guitar, with a swinging rhythm section to match, Errico transforms torch songs into modern reveries — songs that smolder, sigh, and sparkle.

Errico, who has spent the last decade re-imagining Sondheim in her acclaimed concert series and albums, now brings that same lyric precision and emotional insight to the classic love songs of Sammy Fain, Rodgers & Hart, Frank Loesser and Irving Berlin — finding lost treasures of the popular song book and giving them her smart, contemporary treatment -- treating Sammy Fain as though he were Stephen Sondheim. Expect a journey from “When In Rome,” “Remind Me,” to Michel Legrand to Stevie Wonder’s “Ribbon in The Sky.”

The perfect Valentine’s date! a tour of the most heartfelt side of the American songbook with one of our most sublime and soulful singers.
