“Michael Cavanaugh was absolutely outstanding !!! This performance should be the
benchmark for guest artists who perform with the Symphony. Michael brought a level of energy and talent that will be hard to meet. The performance Saturday was just the best of the best.”
Director, Individual Giving and Major Gifts, Houston Symphony
““From the moment he took to the piano with the riveting open from Prelude/Angry
Young Man, Cavanaugh took control of the bus and drove it for the rest of the evening.”
Palm Beach Daily News
“Five out of five stars for a truly extraordinary performance by both a phenomenal
orchestra, a brilliant band and a star who may one day have a following — whether he likes it or not — to rival the original Piano Man himself.”
Rebecca Thomas, EDGE Publications
“Then came something truly beautiful, a wonderful fusion of pop and orchestral music
serving Joel’s transcendent ballad, “She’s Got a Way,” quite well. The arrangement — which consisted of Cavanaugh’s piano and vocal with support from the strings, and then unfolded into strings and brass — gave sublime support to Cavanaugh’s spot-on vocal. This was truly the evening’s high point. Cavanaugh’s tenor echoed Joel’s, but he sang the song passionately, as if it was his own.”
Jeff Miers, News Pop Music Critic, The Buffalo News (2008 Buffalo Philharmonic show)
