This star-studded gala concert, saluting one of the country's most storied venues, Alice Tully Hall, is the final concert in the hall before the lights go out to complete renovations. The program incorporates segments from the concert with narrative feature clips that pay tribute to the legendary venue and footage of what's in store when the hall re-opens in fall 2008 at the start of Lincoln Center's 50th anniversary season. Tom Brokaw emcees; musicians and singers who have made frequent appearances at Alice Tully Hall perform. The lineup includes the Juilliard Orchestra, under the baton of David Robertson, joined by trumpeter and Jazz at Lincoln Center Artistic Director Wynton Marsalis and vocalist Kelli O'Hara. Composer Philip Glass makes a rare appearance performing one of his solo piano etudes; Laurie Anderson also performs. Members of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, Alice Tully Hall's resident company, play Mendelssohn.
