Broadway Singer Ryan Silverman to Replace Seth MacFarlane in New York Pops Tribute to the Music of Sammy Cahn on March 8
Concert Also Features Guest Artist Megan Hilty
Carnegie Hall today announced that Seth MacFarlane, who was scheduled to perform as a guest artist with The New York Pops in its program, Come Fly with Me: The Songs of Sammy Cahn, on Friday, March 8 at 8:00 p.m., must regrettably cancel his appearance due to a scheduling conflict. Broadway singer Ryan Silverman, known for roles in The Phantom of the Opera, Cry-Baby, and The Most Happy Fella, among others, replaces MacFarlane for this performance under the direction of Steven Reineke. Mr. Silverman joins previously announced guest artist Megan Hilty, Broadway performer and star of the television show Smash.
