Marvin played last weekend with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra - he is an incredible talent who has been a past winner of Academy, Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Awards.
We expected a great entertainer and what we got was Marvin the storyteller who played the piano, conducted the orchestra, joked and entertained us. Marvin played some of his best themes and songs, plus he performed songs that he "wished he had written".
Marvin played a medley of songs from the great american songbook - Cole Porter and others. As he related "I do this as you just can't hear this kind of music anymore"
Other highlights of his performance were "A Chorus Line" and that songs from James Bond - " Nobody Does It Better "; that Carly Simon sang.
Marvin was Marvellous indeed !
