Herb Alpert Tickets

The sound needed to be adjusted to better hear the vocals, which at some times were overpowered by the (excellent) musicians. I really enjoyed the casual approach and the banter between Herb and Lani and the musicians as well as the interaction with the audience. It made for a more intimate performance. The variety of tunes was very good, though I do wish he'd played a bit more of the old favorites from the Tijuana Brass era.

I went thinking I wanted to hear Herb Alpert and not his wife, Lani Hall. However, she was the best part of the show! She has an incredible voice and clear diction. The drums were too loud. (I am a drummer and thought I would never complain about that! Somebody else in the audience even told Herb the bass drum was too loud.) I had hoped Herb would have played one of his old hits. But he did not. His new music is very relaxing and pleasant.

A little disappointed Mr. Albert didn't play more of his enchanting songs from the past. His wife can really sing and was entertaining along with his band. I brought my mom who has waited at least 38 years to see Herb Albert and she really wanted to hear his big hits. All in all a great evening. Thanks for coming back to Newport News.

Delightful performance by Herb Alpert who played his trumpet like an angel. Enjoyed the very tender moment he and his wife Lani Hall shared during the show. Lani Hall had a slow start with some song which were too large for her voice. However, toward the end of the performance she rallied with enchanting version of "Black Magic". Overall any opportunity to see the Legendary Herb Alpert is worth it!

Love Herb Alpert....wished he would have played more HA and the TJB music....

Herb Albert plays the trumpet exceedingly well and Lani Hall is a very good singer. However, after saying that I was disappointed that he did not play any of the songs that made him so famous. All the songs were from their new jazz album which was not mentioned in the advertisement. If he had only played a few of the songs from 40 years ago, it would have been a perfect performance.

I love Herb Albert and was anxious to see the show. I've never heard Lani Hall before and very pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed her performance. The whole ensemble was good. Although I am a fan of the T. Brass and Pop music era, my son and I really enjoyed the informal setting and the music that has a latino influence. I would definitely recommend this show to all Albert fans.

If you like Brazilian jazz this event is a must see. These world class musicians put on a show that is as toe tappingly fun as it is sophisticated and cool. Legendary trumpeter and music icon Herb Alpert and his Grammy Award winning wife Lani Hall are an incredible pairing.

Excellent show. My 22 year old daughter and I really enjoyed it. My husband was disappointed that he wasn't available to attend. We are big fans of Herb.

Herb Albert has been a favorite for over 35 years. This concert was amazing.

I was looking forward to more comtemporary selections from the 1990's. I know his wife shared the concert with him, but she seem to control the selections and performed more songs than needed. When he asked the audience what did they want to hear, his wife would change it to meet her needs. They even had to talk about it. I was truly disappointed because we haven't seen Herb in so long. He wife also sang in Brazlian and I didn't know what she was saying. She seems very controlling and I was ready to leave. I hope he changes his tours in the future and be more Herb Albert we wanted to see him Blow that Horn. I wanted to hear North on South Street and I wanted Herb Albert to blow that Horn and he didnt,One lady called out "PLAY RISE" I called out ROTATION. We got nothing new. I was not impressed with his Wife's singing. Sorry folks.

Very informal and warm performance. Lani Hall was great and of course Herb Alpert was wonderful! He was able to make a whole auditorium full of people feel like we were in a small club and jammin'. His three musicians are terrific. All in all a great evening!

Herb & Lani are aesthetically and musically awesome and the blending of her voice and his music made for a night of unforgettable magic. I loved the new twist to old tunes the concert was jazzy and edgy with enough sexy sizzle to be spicy making for a wonderful and fun time for all. Thank you Herb & Lani for a wonderful unforgettable performance. Your Virginia fans George & Kathy Rose

Herb Albert and Lani Hall were incredible. Show was great and the interaction with the audience was fun. Lani Hall is an incredible singer.

This show was really worth going to and Herb Albert was especially open in answering questions from the audience.

This was a warm, charming, wonderfully entertaining time with veteran artists who know how to engage an audience. Herb Alpert and Lani Hall are magic together -- to say nothing of the other musicians who were superb performers solo but phenomenal together. Just wish the evening had lasted longer.

A fine Jazz performance from seasoned professionals. They are accompanied by just a piano, bass, and drums. Playing mostly a combination of Jazz standards and Bossa Nova numbers, their improvisation provides a fresh interpretation of familiar material. Lani Hall is still a stellar Jazz vocalist with technique on par with anyone performing today. Herb is melodic and wonderfully understated. The ensemble is tight and has obviously been playing together for years. On the downside, most of their songs have a similar laid-back vibe. They could use a few raucous songs to keep it exciting and engaging. A lead guitarist would help in that area. And I may be bias, but Bossa Nova without a saxophone leaves me wanting. Don't come expecting to hear The Lonely Bull or Tijuana Taxi. But if you love Jazz, you'll leave satisfied.

I have been a supporter of Herb Alpert and Lani Hall since the late sixties. Herb's playing and Lani's voice is as strong as ever. The give and take between Herb, Lani and the trio was awesome. You could tell that all the artists were having fun. Jazz is primarily a conversation and there was plently of creative dialogue taking place last night. The painted backdrop by Herb added to the warmth and vibrance of the musical experience.

As life long fans of HA & the TB, my husband, parents and I were supremely disappointed in the concert. With the focus being on Lani, who is quite talented, and not on Herb's traditional music, we felt robbed. We understand an artist's desire to try new songs and expected a few, but for not a single 'traditional' HA song to be played blindsided us. To have paid that much money for 4th row seats, we could have stayed home with the 'smooth jazz' music channel on and paid for cable for months. If they had just billed it as "Lani Hall songs with Herb playing backup brass" we would have understood and saved ourselves the aggravation of the $6 wine, chilly theater, and tunnel traffic.

Talented duo serving up a new sound comprised mostly of Latina and Jazz. But with an audience full of grey hair a couple of Tijuana oldies would have been welcomed and wouldn't have interfered with their artistic direction.
