From piano superstar Yuja Wang to Hershey Felder as Gershwin to the world famous Pet Comedy Theater, here are the Bay Area shows to see this weekend and beyond.
Performer and musician Hershey Felder is saying farewell to one of his favorite musical muses, but not before they go on one last tour together.
Felder, long a popular performer in the Bay Area, is known for his compelling shows, featuring top-notch piano playing and storytelling, focusing on the lives and music of such iconic composers as Beethoven, Chopin, Leonard Bernstein, Irving Berlin, Tchaikovsky, Debussy and more. This week, Felder is coming to Mountain View to perform one of his popular works, “George Gershwin Alone.” It is said to be the Felder’s final tour performing as Gershwin, an icon he has reportedly portrayed more than 3,000 times.
Gershwin composed more than a thousand songs — including “Fascinating Rhythm,” “I Got Rhythm,” “’S Wonderful” and “They Can’t Take That Away from Me,” not to mention the tunes from such musicals as “Porgy and Bess” and “An American In Paris.” The output is all the more jaw-dropping when you consider he died of a brain tumor at age 38.8 p.m. March 2-3, today 2 and 8 p.m. March 4, 2 and 7 p.m. March 5; Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts; $45-$65; www.mvcpa.com.
