Harry Connick, Jr.

  • The Third Story
    The Iconic Harry Connick, Jr.
    Leo Sidran
    Harry Connick, Jr. joins Leo Sidran to discuss Babe: Elaboratio — A Tribute to My Mother, an ambitious new orchestral work and book devoted to his mother, Anita Livingston, who died when he was 13. Connick reflects on memory and loss, growing up as a musical prodigy in New Orleans, his formative relationships with Ellis Marsalis and James Booker, and the “dream state” of his remarkable early success.
