Description: Chip Deffaa's Say it with Music: The Irving Berlin Saga: The Cast Album Starring Michael Townsend Wright (new CD)..... This is the original cast recording of the show "Say it with Music: The Irving Berlin Saga," which is published and licensed by Stage Rights. The rags-to-riches story of America's most successful single songwriter is told using 40 of his own songs. Anyone who loves the Great American Songbook will find much to savor here. The show was inspired by a real-life incident, when Irving Berlin *1888-1989) invited into his home a group of Christmas carolers, who were singing his songs outside of his home one Christmas Eve. And the album contains one very special "ringer"--Jaqueline Parker, one of the original characters depicted in the play, plays herself! The score is rich with Berlin melodies. ASCAP Award-winning writer Chip Deffaa is a noted expert on Berlin and old-time show business. (He's written six different published shows about Berlin.) This acclaimed CD is part of Deffaa's ongoing Irving Berlin series, which also includes such CD's as "Chip Deffaa's Irving Berlin: Ragtime Rarities," "An Irving Berlin Travelogue," "Irving Berlin: Love Songs and Such," "The Irving Berlin Duets Album," "Irving Berlin Rediscovered," and "Chip Deffaa's The Irving Berlin Songbook," among others. He's also produced such historical CDs as "Al Jolson Sings Irving Berlin," "George M. Cohan: Rare Performances," "Fanny Brice: Rare and Unreleased Recordings," and "Chip Deffaa's Broadway and Vaudeville Legends." All are available on Ebay.
