Karyn Levitt is a singer/actress/writer who conceives and performs theatrical concerts. Ms. Levitt sings everything from art songs and light opera to theater songs and jazz standards.

Songs of Hanns Eisler is Ms. Levitt's latest creation. Collaborating with Eric Bentley, the world's foremost authority on Bertolt Brecht, Ms. Levitt has developed a landmark show of Eisler's songs (with texts mainly by Brecht) ranging in style from lieder to theater songs, using Eric Bentley's English versions.

The Age of Romance: From Vienna to Broadway traces the origin of modern musical theatre to its musical roots in the Viennese operetta. This rapturously enchanting show has received standing ovations from audiences across New England and had its New York debut at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall on October 6th, 2007.

Ms. Levitt created her theatrical concert, Puccini and His Contemporaries: A Cabaret of Opera and Theatre, as a multi-textured pastiche of songs, letters, monologues, poetry and reviews.
