Some Enchanted Evening - Celebrating Oscar Hammerstein II 

One of my most favourite shows ever! Thank you for posting this. I never thought I would see this again!

I can’t quite believe it! Utterly wonderful! Thank you so very much.

You are So awesome for sharing this!!!!

Fabulous … How young the late, great Rebecca Luger, and Audra McDonald were. So many greats who unfortunately have been forgotten.

Thank you so much for this. It's one of my all-time favorite specials.

Matt thanks so very much for posting this. Had been searching for it for years. Dawn Upshaw singing “The Last Time I Saw Paris” is one of those musical moments that have just stayed with my since I saw the broadcast on television. Literally perfection. But so much of this evening was extraordinary. Of course listening to, and seeing how moved Steve Sondheim was while speaking of Oscar Hammerstein, is a gift. What a teacher Sondheim was to composers and lyricists alike, and to his audiences. May new generations continue to discover, and learn from him.

I'm so happy I found this. I had taped this from PBS years ago and used to watch it regularly. It is really one of the best specials with so much talent!

Remembering when I first ever watched "Some Enchanted Evening - Celebrating Oscar Hammerstein II" on Great Performances which first ever aired as part of KPBS San Diego's March 1995 Membership Campaign, Circa Thursday March 16th, 1995!! YOU MAKE IT HAPPEN WITH YOUR SUPPORT!!

How wonderful was this? Spectacular!!! Revere Mr . Hammerstein! Thanks so much for posting this lovely celebration!!

Outstanding show with lots of well-deserved applause and not one person clapped with their hands over their head.

What a wonderfully produced show! So many colorful performers participated in this celebration of Oscar Hammerstein II narrated by the legendary Julie Andrew^^ what a treat during this covid lockdown!!!

So glad you posted this!!! This was the first time I heard Audra McDonald and fell in love with Broadway! It brings back great memories of singing and watching musicals with my grandma, even though she has passed on I sing in musicals in honor of her.

Thank you so much for this! I can't express how much joy this has brought me! I used to have a VHS tape I recorded from my local PBS station and used to watch it over and over. Lost it sometime in the last decade or so and have been searching everywhere for it. There are so many spectacular moments in this, and my heart is full. 🙏 so much!

Omg thank you!!!!

Patti LaBelle! The best!

Video should have stopped at 1:24:54 because from 1:24:55 We have some of a different programme

Patti LaBelle sang "Carefully Taught" and it seemed like she wasn't paying a bit of attention to the words.

Thanks for posting this. I've been looking for it. I was in the cast and never watched it. Great memories.
