Girl Power -
A trio of outstanding performers called Goody Goody! including Valerie Anastasio, Mary Ann Lanier and Heather Peterson, and the pianist Robert Humphreville celebrate the thrilling close harmonies, tight rhythms, and fabulous blends of the great American girl groups from the early days of the Brox Sisters, the Pickens Sisters and those jazzy Boswells to the glory days of the Andrews Sisters and on to the McGuire Sisters, the Shirelles, the Ronettes, the Crystals, and more. Some of the marvelous songs on the program are "Da Doo Ron Ron," "On the Atcheson, Topeka, and the Santa Fe," "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?," "Soldier Boy," "Sincerely," "Bei Mir Bist Du Schön," "Cheek to Cheek, " and "Something's Gotta Give."
