PEABO BRYSON • ROBERTA FLACK Internationally hailed as one of the greatest songstresses of our time, Roberta Flack remains unparalleled in her ability to tell a story through her music from pop to soul to folk to jazz. In 1972, a re-release of her song, “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face,” from her first LP, zoomed to number one and remained there for six weeks, becoming that year’s biggest hit. Ms. Flack followed with a string of hits, including “Where Is the Love” (a duet with former Howard University classmate Donny Hathaway), “Killing Me Softly With His Song,” “Feel Like Makin’ Love,” “The Closer I Get to You,” “Tonight I Celebrate My Love,” and “Set the Night to Music.” Peabo Bryson is one of the premier male vocalists in contemporary music and with twenty-five years of music-making to his credit, he is expanding his creative horizons as a producer and songwriter. He has done duets with Roberta Flack, Kenny G and Natalie Cole. He sang a number of Disney hits, including “A Whole New World” from Aladdin with Regina Belle, and “Beauty and the Beast” with Celine Dion.
