Songbook Sundays, created and hosted by Deborah Grace Winer, continues at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Dizzy’s Club October 1 with concerts celebrating the work of Harold Arlen.

One for Harold Arlen, which is presented at 5 PM and 7:30 PM, features Tony winner Karen Ziemba (Contact, Steel Pier), Allison Blackwell (New York, New York; Pretty Woman), and Georgia Heers.

Attendees can expect to hear such Arlen classics as "The Man that Got Away," "Stormy Weather," "That Old Black Magic," "Come Rain or Come Shine," and more. 

Arlen, perhaps best known for his score to The Wizard of Oz, also wrote the music for Broadway's Bloomer Girl, St. Louis Woman, House of Flowers, Jamaica, and Saratoga.

Music director Ted Rosenthal leads a band that includes Yasushi Nakamura on bass, Jimmy Macbride on drums, and Alex De Lazzari on tenor saxophone.

Songbook Sundays, now in its second year, will subsequently offer a celebration of Cy Coleman November 19.
