Composer: Burt Bacharach

The art of the composer: Burt Bacharach. (1928-2023)

 

Pianist and songwriter Burt Bacharach, who died on February 9 at the age of 94, wrote the final chapter in the Great American Songbook. His 26-year collaboration with lyricist Hal David, who died in 2012, made them the heirs to earlier double acts such as George and Ira Gershwin, Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe, and Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart.

We will play his early successes from the 1950s, but we will focus on the “golden trio”: music by Burt Bacharach, lyrics by Hal David, and the voice of their muse, Dionne Warwick (pictured).

The hundreds of songs Bacharach wrote and recorded were performed and recorded by numerous artists, making him one of the most important composers of popular music of our time.
