Brian Stokes Mitchell is just wonderful. An amazing voice, charming, charismatic. Great show and I'd go again in a minute, but he didn't sing anything from "Ragtime," which is where I discovered him. That was very disappointing, as his "Wheels of a Dream" with Audra McDonald is unforgettable.
Brian Stokes Mitchell didn't just put on a musical concert, he presented a Theatrical Event. A complete emotional experience where he presented many iconic characters from Broadways magnificent catalogue and had them literally come to life on the stage. Not only is his voice an instrument of perfection, his rich baritone filling the auditorium, but he is such a wonderful Actor that he takes his audience with him on a musical journey.....a ride you're happy to go on with him. The concert was exciting, fun, and at times electrifying....and all this with just one piano accompanying him. One amazing pianist and one extraordinary performer. A fantastic evening of music.
If you love astounding vocals mixed with fearless performance, you will love BSM. He has so much fun on stage and therefor inspires the audience to have fun right alongside him. A wonderful, humorous, romantic and inspiring night.
What a talented singer, performer, storyteller and actor. It was all Mr. Mitchell as he was accompanied by a talented pianist. Mr. Mitchell performed each song, inhabiting the characters that sang the songs. He was incredible, just incredible.
My only complaint is that the concert should be longer. It was great to hear Brian sing live.
Great mix of songs, terrific accompanist! Too bad this was a one-night show!
Brian Stokes Mitchell really knows how to entertain the audience. He put on a tremendous show. It was a show that we will never forget and are looking forward to the next time we are privileged to see him
We were thrilled that BSM's concert schedule and ours connected! We have been fans of his since he starred in "Kiss Me Kate" and try to get to as many of his venues as possible. This time did not disappoint-not only is his voice terrifically rich, but also he connects with the audience from the start.
Every song was memorable because of the way he performed them onstage . It was a totally joyous evening of superb entertainment. I hope he is back soon so I can see him again.
Brian Stokes Mitchell was in top form, superb actor, powerful baritone singer, each song told a story, artfully crafted. Was a don't miss performance of Broadway melodies.
Brian Stokes Mitchell is the real deal. He can sing, he can act and he can put it all together in an unforgettable package. Do not miss him!!! He is working with one of the best accompanists around.
The evening at Town Hall was unforgettable. Brian Stokes Mitchell was in fine form, with only a piano to accompany him. His voice is unquestionably one of the finest to be heard. But he also acted out the parts he was singing, showing his incredible versatility. He exuded charm and charisma, and simply delighted the audience. I've seen him perform a number of times, and this one was quite special.
From the opening moments at his concert on Monday, I was riveted to the performance of Brian Stokes Mitchell. His wonderful voice and interpretation of every selection were outstanding. When it comes to musical theater, there really is no other performer I'd rather listen to. He is captivating.
Brian Stokes Mitchell is the very best when it comes to versatility, talent, charisma, and style. Never disappointing, always astonishing, authentic and winning. If you bring him back, I will be there.
Even though I'm familiar with the shows Mr. Mitchell celebrated, it's very difficult to take a song out of context, such as "Finishing the Hat," and make it a winning performance. As much as I admire Stephen Sondheim, he's not Cole Porter or Rodgers & Hart. I wish Mr. Mitchell had been more "popular." I came with a friend who is not a Broadway devotee, and he was disappointed--not with Mr. Mitchell's glorious voice but by the selection of material. Many of the lyrics were puzzling to him. I know artists like to do this, to present themselves in new and different ways. But a more traditional arrangement of "Some Enchanted Evening" would have been welcome.
Breathtaking perfomer, an unbelieveble voice and talent. Loved every second and wished it never ended!
I am an 18 year old girl who just happened to stumble upon this amazing talent one night when I decided I did not want to go to sleep. I turned on the television around one in the morning and The 2005 Carnegie Hall performance of South Pacific was on and before I knew it I was mesmerized and fell in love with Brian Stokes Mitchell. After that I looked up everything I could about him and listened to probably almost all of his songs, those I could find on Youtube anyway, I even went out and brought the Carnegie Hall Concert version of South Pacific. This concert was a special and amazing night for me, probably one of the greatest moments of my life, I never thought I would get the chance to see him perform live, he is such an amazingly talented person, and very funny, I enjoyed every song he sang. Being able to hear "The Impossible Dream" and "Wheels of a Dream" live was breathtaking. It was truly an unforgettable experience that will take with me forever.
This concert was the BEST! Brian Stokes Mitchell has one of the most magnificent voices in the world today. The concert had something for everyone--jazz, standards, show tunes and more. Of course he sang his signature songs from the musicals he has appeared in, which were my favorite part of the concert. His "This Nearly Was Mine" was not only beautifully sung but also extremely moving. He not only sings a song, but acts it as well. He is the ultimate performer.. Stokes' comments made the songs even more meaningful. The musicians were all very talented as well, especially the pianist who added so much to the songs You couldn't ask for a better evening's entertainment.
What a performance! We see many different kinds of shows and this was one of our favorites of all time! His voice is amazing which we knew but the variety of his performance was unexpected and delightful!
BSM can do it all- from jazz to Broadway. His command of a stage is breathtaking and his ability to become the characters he portrays is astounding. The timbre of his voice pierces my heart. What else is there to say? There are not many performers like Mr. Mitchell- it was an evening I will remember.
