    She knocks this song out of the park. Dazzling rendition of "I Feel Pretty." Back in 1963 my high school Farragut did this Bernstein song. Memories

      +Nada Intelectual Perhaps it was a concert for somewhat "difficult" audience and only few believed in its success. There are some members of the orchestra, feeling quite pretty though. Nevertheless, the performance was beautiful and Joyce - I guess - spreaded her "feeling of joy" around. I'm sure it stays in memory of many of the audience. Takes a great artist to do that. :)

    When a singer sings the words to a song, the lyricist is supposed to get credit. So, this should be: music by Leonatd Bernstein; words by Stephen Sondheim.

    • @Yves_Ka
      @Yves_Ka 3 місяці тому

      Generally not - when singers sing Schumann, Schubert, Mahler, Strauß songs the lyricist is seldom mentioned. I doubt the majority of music lovers even know who wrote the text to Schumann's Frauenliebe und Leben or Schubert's Wintereise

    • @aresee8208
      @aresee8208 3 місяці тому

      @@Yves_Ka I see lyricists credited all the time. I Feel Pretty " is a popular song from an American musical. It has a composer and a separate lyricist. If a musician or an orchestra plays just the music then sure. Composer only. But when someone sings the words, the person who wrote those words should be credited. In my humble opinion, of course. Clearly, some others don't agree.
