Vocalist Helen Welch brings her show Yesterday Once More: A musical celebration of the Carpenters to the Kent State University at Tuscarawas Performing Arts Center on Sept. 16 at 7:30 p.m.
Join Helen Welch as she celebrates the magic and music of the Carpenters. With their light, airy melodies and meticulously crafted arrangements, the Carpenters stood in direct contrast with the excessive, gaudy pop and rock of the '70s; yet they became one of the most beloved recording acts of all time. Helen’s distinctive alto voice settles in perfectly amidst the precise, lush arrangements provided by her band performing Carpenters classics such as; “We’ve Only Just Begun”, “I Won’t Last a Day Without You”, “Yesterday Once More”, “Close To You” and many more. This fresh, new show honors the timeless music that moved an entire generation and is endorsed by Richard Carpenter himself!
