About

Jenny Lin’s latest release on the Steinway & Sons label is a spectacular collection of showtunes arranged by Greg Anderson, Marc-André Hamelin, Stephen Hough, Dick Hyman, Stefan Malzew, Christopher O’Riley, André Previn, Stephen Prutsman, David Saperton, Cy Walter, Alexis Weissenberg and Earl Wild.

Including new commissions and world premiere recordings, this is one of Steinway’s top releases for 2012!

'Get Happy' includes brand-new arrangements by Marc-André Hamelin (David Raskin’s “Laura”), Stefan Malzew (“Eliza in Ascot” from My Fair Lady) and Greg Anderson (Cole Porter’s “So In Love”).
 
World premiere recordings include Christopher O’Riley’s gorgeous arrangement of “Johanna” from Sondheim’s 'Sweeney Todd'  and Alexis Weissenberg’s exquisite version of “Lover” from the Rodgers & Hart musical film, 'Me Tonight'.
