Greetings friends,
As December dances in with its merry vibes, we have been busy here at the Livingston Taylor HQ planning and sharing musical events that promise to lighten your spirits and bring a bounty of cheer to your Holidays!
Livingston's heartfelt ballad, "I will be in love with you" is the 3rd exclusive BBC Concert Orchestra song released this month. The song, released in 1978, showcases Liv’s exceptional songwriting ability, evoking feelings of love, devotion, and the promise of a lasting relationship. Its timeless lyrics and beautifully harmonized melodies have made it a favorite among fans for decades.
Here's Liv introducing "I will be in love with you", (or click photo to view video):
Starting in '24, Liv will be taking his BBC Concert Orchestra music out to a live audience, performing with symphony orchestras all over the country. Liv's tuxedo is always ready; he comes with musical charts brilliantly written by Tony Award winning Broadway and Hollywood composer, Bill Elliott. Please contact management if you have suggestions of orchestras/venues that Liv can work with in the upcoming year.

LIVINGSTON TAYLOR'S QUOTE OF THE MOMENT
"It didn't seem to be about money, power or fame. Success seemed to be about gratitude. The ability to recognize that your presence here on the planet at this time is a gift and nothing more need be expected or offered. Gratitude is success; and success is gratitude. They are interchangeable. It's true not just in a career, but in life in general. Self-acceptance, forgiveness and gratitude are very attractive qualities on stage." - Livingston Taylor, Stage Performance
