Ansonia resident performs Sinatra, Elvis, Bennett and more

Ansonia resident Mark Lanzieri performs Wednesday in his hometown, backed up by Joe Meo on saxophone, Joe Sullivan on drums and Joe McWilliams on piano. 

ANSONIA - The final concert of the Ansonia Cultural Commission's summer series was a big hit with fans of city resident Mark Lanzieri.

As a friend and Lanzieri fan who I was sharing a park bench with remarked, "I feel like he is singing to me, not for me."

I'm sure she wasn't the only one who felt that way. Lanzieri's repertoire is made up of classics that are crowd favorites. "Fly Me to the Moon," "I Left My Heart in San Francisco," "New York, New York,""Brown-Eyed Girl," and "My Way" are just a few.


Good job, Cultural Commission members. Looking forward to next year's concerts!
