BIOGRAPHIESThe late Jazz-Swing singer and musician extraordinaire
Nat King Cole remains Unforgettable to scores of fans
worldwide. The Grammy winner and Rock and Roll Hall
of Fame inductee made television history in 1956 when
he became the first African American to host a variety
television series.
In STRAIGHTEN UP AND FLY RIGHT, music
legends RAMSEY LEWIS and JOHN PIZZARELLI pay
TRIBUTE TO NAT KING COLE, presenting the late
legend’s ageless hits, which include Straighten Up and Fly
Right, Route 66, I Love You for Sentimental Reasons, and It’s
Only a Paper Moon.
With three Grammys and more than 80 albums
throughout his career, Lewis is known for infusing Gospel
and Classical sounds into his Jazz-Blues-R&B repertoire.
The Chicago Tribune called him “electric,” saying he “clearly
is capable of writing fresh, aria-like melodies steeped in
blue.” Recently honored with a Fifth Star cultural award
from the city of Chicago for his contribution to music and
the arts, Lewis topped the charts with the Gold album Wade
in the Water and the Grammy-winning Hang on Sloopy,
Hold It Right There, and The In Crowd. He recently released
Ramsey, Taking Another Look. Lewis co-hosts the popular
radio program Legends of Jazz.
Pizzarelli has cultivated an award-winning
international career as a contemporary interpreter of classic
American standards and ballads. Called “madly creative” by
the Los Angeles Times, the host of the nationally syndicated
program Radio Deluxe With John Pizzarelli has won the
2007 Nightlife Award, which honors the best in New
York Cabaret, Comedy, and Jazz. Pizzarelli has partnered
with music’s top names, including James Taylor, Natalie
Cole, Rosemary Clooney, Jon Secada, and Roberta Flack.
Pizzarelli’s acclaimed albums include Knowing You, Bossa
Nova, and Live at Birdland. His latest release is Double

BIOGRAPHIESIn a three-part format, Rob Kapilow explores
PICTURES AT AN EXHIBITION – MUSSORGSKY
with pianist ALBERT CANO SMIT. A lively Q&A con-
cludes the evening. It’s “the kind of enlightening musical
seminar in which you hang on to every word and note,” says
The New York Times of the What Makes It Great? program.
Composer Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky was an in-
novator of Russian music during the Romantic period. His
piano piece, Pictures at an Exhibition, describes paintings in
sound and is universally accepted as his most popular com-
position. It was believed that Mussorgsky was moved to write
the work in honor of an architect-artist friend whose prema-
ture death prevented him from leaving behind a legacy.
Long compared to legendary composer-conductor
Leonard Bernstein and exalted as “Classical music’s greatest
evangelist” by the Boston Herald, ROB KAPILOW “gets
audiences in tune with Classical music at a deeper and more
immediate level than many of them thought possible,” hails
the Los Angeles Times.
For more than two decades, Kapilow has brought the
joys and wonder of music to audiences of all ages and back-
grounds with his What Makes It Great? presentations, which
dissect and examine the mysteries of music in terms every-
one can grasp and appreciate. Part One is an entertaining
discussion displaying Kapilow’s astounding gift for observa-
tion and his animated teaching style. Part Two features
performances of the composition. The evening concludes
with Part Three, a spirited Q&A on the work.
Cited by The Boston Globe as “an educator, motiva-
tional speaker, and game show host, all rolled up in one,”
Kapilow has built a loyal following and a name for himself
worldwide. His renowned What Makes It Great? series is a
recurring event in New York, Boston, Toronto, Washington
D.C., and Cerritos. Kapilow’s vast catalog of accomplish-
ments includes the highly praised FamilyMusik series, which
introduces youths to all things musical; and Citypieces,
which celebrates American life – its history, citizens, diver-
sity, and destination – through collaborative compositions.
Kapilow claimed the top spot in the Fontainebleau
Casadesus Piano Competition, and Second Prize in the
Antal Dorati Conductor’s Competition with the Detroit
Symphony. A featured composer on Chicago Public Radio’s
prestigious Composers in America series, Kapilow is also a
recipient of an Exxon “Meet-the-Composer” grant and
numerous awards from the American Society of Composers,
Authors and Publishers, which includes more than 300,000
U.S. musicians, songwriters, lyricists, and publishers of all
musical genres. Kapilow has spearheaded multiple musical
productions, from the Tony award-winning Nine on Broad-
way to the premiere of Frida for the opening of the Brooklyn
Academy of Music’s Next Wave Festival. He is the author
of the award-winning book All You Have to Do Is Listen
and its follow-up, What Makes It Great? Short Masterpieces,
Great Composers. His latest album is Polar Express/Gertrude
McFuzz, featuring collaborations with Isabel Leonard and
Nathan Gunn.
ALBERT CANO SMIT has won prizes at numerous
piano competitions, including the XIX Chopin Festival in
Poland and the Beethoven Society of Europe competition.
He has performed in Europe and the United States,
including at the Bridgewater Hall in Manchester, England;
Auditori Enric Granados in Spain; and the Westminster
Cathedral in London. He has worked with the Manchester
Camerata Orchestra, the American Youth Symphony, and
the Nottingham Youth Orchestra. n

BIOGRAPHIESNearly eight decades after it was founded, the
COUNT BASIE ORCHESTRA continues to thrill
crowds with its trademark Swingin’ ways, continuing strong
an American institution personifying the grandeur and
excellence of Jazz.
Founded in 1935 in Kansas City, Missouri, the Count
Basie Orchestra was dominating airwaves across America
within a year, delighting fans with its legendary foot-
stomping Blues tunes. The ensemble “was the epitome of
swing, of jazz that moved with a built-in flowing intensity,”
raved The New York Times.
Scoring more than a dozen Grammys, the orchestra
performed for royalty globally, appeared in movies and
television shows, and played at major Jazz festivals and
concert halls worldwide. The band’s Grammy-winning
albums include 88 Basie Street, Warm Breeze, Count Plays
Duke, On the Road, Prime Time, and Live at Manchester
Craftsmen’s Guild. Talents such as Lester Young, Billie
Holiday, Frank Foster, Thad Jones, and Snooky Young
earned international recognition after stints with the group.
Discovered by Count Basie, Jazz powerhouse
CARMEN BRADFORD has been cited by the Los Angeles
Times for her “control of mood and dynamics.” Her albums
include Finally Yours, With Respect, and Home With You.
She has collaborated with many of music’s biggest
names and institutions, including Wynton Marsalis, John
Clayton, Doc Severinsen, Tony Bennett, James Brown,
Patti Austin, Frank Sinatra, and the Lincoln Center Jazz
Orchestra. Bradford teamed up with guitarist George
Benson on the Grammy-winning Big Boss Band album.
Comedian ROBERT LEE hosts the show. n
BIOGRAPHYThe Bee Gees defined the Disco era with legendary
falsetto harmonies and funky beats, selling more than 200
million records worldwide. The indisputable face of Disco,
the Bee Gees rocked the world and shattered music charts,
earning the distinction of being the only group in history
to have written, recorded, and produced six consecutive
No. One hits.
The group’s Grammy-winning Saturday Night Fever
album alone sold more than 30 million copies. It reigned
as the top-selling album in history until Michael Jackson’s
1982 Thriller, which Jackson himself acknowledged was
inspired by Saturday Night Fever. At the time of the Bee
Gees’ induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in
1997, the band was outsold by only Elvis, the Beatles, Garth
Brooks, Michael Jackson, and Paul McCartney.
The tribute show STAYIN’ ALIVE – ONE NIGHT OF THE BEE GEES celebrates the group’s legacy. Expect
a Night Fever of hits, including blockbuster tunes (such as
Jive Talkin’, How Deep Is Your Love, You Should Be Dancing,
Nights on Broadway, and Lonely Days) as well as popular
soft ballads (I Started a Joke, Words, Massachusetts, and To
Love Somebody). The high-energy production features big-
screen video clips, photos, and dazzling imagery, making the
experience more realistic for audiences.
The Stayin’ Alive tribute band includes Tony Mattina
(as lead vocalist Barry Gibb), George Manz (as the late
Maurice Gibb), Todd Sharman (as the late Robin Gibb),
drummer-percussionist Michael Griffin, bass guitarist
Chris Mullen, and guitarists Smokin’ Joe Perees and Andy
Wegerich. n

BIOGRAPHYThe Grimm Brothers’ ageless fable RUMPLESTILTSKIN
spins to life on stage, exploring themes of greed, deception, vanity,
manipulation, and friendship.
Once upon a time, a poor miller boasted to the king
about his daughter Daisy’s amazing ability to spin ordinary
straw into mountains of gold. Intrigued, the greedy king
locked the miller’s daughter in the castle for three nights,
threatening death if she doesn’t turn straw into gold by the
morning.
During each night, a mischievous little man came to
Daisy’s aid, spinning the straw into gold in exchange for
her valuables. When she had nothing more of value to offer
him on the third night, he made her vow to give him her
firstborn, which she agreed to.
After three mornings of being greeted by a room filled
with gold, the greedy king married Daisy. Shortly after Daisy
gave birth to her first child, Rumplestiltskin returned to
collect on the promise. He refused all the riches she offered,
but agreed to give her three days to guess his name. If she
guessed correctly, she could keep her baby.
The children’s fairy tale, dating back to the 1800s,
juggles ageless life lessons about trickery, secrets, and the
struggle for power. Presented by The Panto Company,
which has been delivering quality children’s theater
throughout the United Kingdom since 1999, the production
features catchy songs, colorful costumes, and audience
participation. All Panto Company shows are conceived and
produced by founder Matt Lee-Alliston, an award-winning
actor. Recommended for ages 5 and older, Rumplestiltskin
lasts approximately one hour. n

TICKET BROKERSTickets to all performances at the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts (CCPA) are available exclusively through the theater’s Ticket Office and official website www.cerritoscenter.com. The CCPA does not work in conjunction with any other ticketing organizations or websites. Purchasing from a ticket broker, scalper, or unauthorized website is never a good idea because:
• You will always pay more than face value for each ticket. In many cases, the tickets you purchase from a broker are not as good as what is available directly through the CCPA Ticket Office.
• We cannot guarantee the authenticity of the tickets.• If there is an issue with your tickets or they are found
to be inauthentic, we cannot help you because you did not purchase the tickets from the theater. You will be asked to purchase new tickets for the performance or leave the premises. The face value on the tickets you are holding cannot be applied towards the purchase of new tickets.
• Ticket brokers often purchase wheelchair locations and sell them as regular seats. Not only does this practice prevent you from attending the performance, it also prevents us from selling these seats to patrons who need wheelchair accessibility.
• We cannot replace lost or stolen tickets.• We cannot contact you with any information
regarding show cancellations, performer lineup changes, or rescheduled events. All correspondence will be made to the original ticket purchaser, who may not notify you of changes made to the performance.
• Instead of supporting the performers and organizations that work hard to put on the events that you enjoy, you are rewarding people and businesses that only make it difficult for real fans like yourself from seeing your favorite performers without being charged a premium.
Following are some tips to ensure that you are purchasing from the CCPA:
• Visit or call the Ticket Office directly at (800) 300-4345 during regular business hours. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will be happy to help with ticketing questions or needs.
• Do not use a search engine (Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc.) to find our website. Many search engines make money by listing various website addresses before ours. These other websites are unauthorized to sell tickets to our events. Instead, type www.cerritoscenter.com into the website address field.
• Make sure that you are purchasing from the official CCPA website. Look at the website address and make sure that www.cerritoscenter.com is at the beginning of the website address listed. If it is, you may safely continue with your transaction. If it is not, close the page and start over as you are on an unauthorized site.
