Featured studio performance
“I’ll Always Remember Us This Way”
A close, expressive piano-and-vocal performance that captures the sound and atmosphere at the centre of Howard’s live show.
The experience
A full musical sound without the footprint of a full band.
Built around the occasion
Understated for arrivals and dinner, more focused for listening, and livelier when the room calls for it.
Saxophone when it adds colour
Saxophone can be incorporated selectively to broaden the musical palette without changing the character of the show.
