About "Bernstein: America Medley: New York New York" by Tanglewood Festival Chorus
Bernstein's 'America' medley, including 'New York, New York,' is a brash, big-hearted collision of showtune and city swagger. The Tanglewood Festival Chorus delivers it with brass and biteβa love letter to the skyline, the syncopation a taxi horn, the harmony a chorus of immigrants dreaming aloud.
