The concert features some of Bacharach’s most beloved compositions, including The Look Of LoveWalk On ByRaindrops Keep Falling On My Head and I Say A Little Prayer. All in all, Bacharach composed more than 70 songs that appeared on the Top 40 list in the United States, and his work has also been heard in films, television series and musicals. During his career, he received six Grammy awards and three Oscars.
