Forget raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. Rachel York and Sal Viviano, Reno Philharmonic Orchestra and Broadway Night at the Lake Tahoe Music Festival—these are a few of our favorite things. This year the festival salutes the vast catalog of work by Broadway legends Rodgers and Hammerstein July 30 at Tahoe Donner. Year after year one of our most popular performances, Broadway Night is sure to sell out.
This year we’re bringing back the star power and incredible vocals of Rachel York and Sal Viviano, both stars of Broadway, film and television. Musical accompaniment for Broadway Night is by the Reno Philharmonic Orchestra.
York has won acclaim in Broadway productions of “City of Angels” “Victor/Victoria,” “Kiss Me, Kate” and “Les Misérables.” Her additional credits include the films “One Fine Day” and “Billy Bathgate,” and TV series “Frasier,” “Reba” and “Close To Home.” She regularly performs in concert with appearances including the National Symphony and the Pittsburgh Pops under the direction of conductor Marvin Hamlisch, “The Sound of Music” at the Hollywood Bowl with the Los Angeles Philharmonic under the direction of John Mauceri, the Israeli Opera, and the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra. Critics have hailed York’s cabaret, “For the Love of It,” as “perfection,” “wonderfully entertaining and extremely funny,” “crowd-pleasing and purely delicious,” “a blissful night of entertainment,” and “an experience not to be missed.”
