The Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis is giving audiences a sneak peek at tonight’s new musical Sesame Street tribute.
The orchestra debuted a clip of Elmo performing the song ‘It Feels Good (When You Sing A Song)‘ Wednesday. Elmo is joined by Hoots The Owl for the song, which celebrates the joy that singing brings.
The song is one of 13 that the orchestra will perform alongside some of Sesame Street‘s most beloved residents. The collective announced the concert’s set list Tuesday. It is noted below.
Jazz at Lincoln Center Presents: A Swingin’ Sesame Street Celebration is scheduled to air on PBS stations nationwide at 9 p.m. ET tonight. The concert’s audio recording was released today.
