Piano Men – The Music of Elton and Billy

Treat your Valentine to a heart-warming tribute to two amazing musicians, Billy Joel and Elton John, at 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 11, at the Sanford Performing Arts Center. “Piano Men – The Music of Elton and Billy” is a tribute featuring the amazing songs of Billy Joel and Elton John. This concert experience features Joe Boucher on piano and vocals, combined with a four-piece band and a string orchestra section. Specially arranged by Christopher Eastburn, "these songs have rarely been performed live in this way," said SPACE Director Brett Williams. "The show features many of the same musicians who performed 'Classic Rock' on our stage last New Year’s Eve." The music of “Piano Men” concentrates heavily on recordings by Elton and Billy during their '70s heyday when their many hit albums featured lush orchestrations. The concert opens with Billy Joel’s thrilling "Prelude / Angry Young Man" and works its way through #1 hits including "Tiny Dancer," "Scenes From an Italian Restaurant," "Your Song," "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road," "Piano Man" and many more!
