We couldn't let Joni Mitchell come all the way to Washington for a concert held in her honor & NOT give her a personalized tour of some Library treasures. Watch this space for more from her visit as we count down to the #GershwinPrize concert, March 31 on PBS. #GershwinPrize PBS

🤩 What a gorgeous rendition of 'Both Sides Now.' When she wasn't blowing our minds with her performances, Annie Lennox took some time to visit the Library while she was in Washington for the #GershwinPrize concert. Take a look. #GershwinPrize PBS

Joni truly knows how to bring “both sides now.” In this case both sides of the political aisle.
Not shown on TV this wonderful bipartisan moment:

We love that Joni chose to sing George Gershwin’s song “Summertime” from “Porgy and Bess.' The day after the concert taping she visited the Library’s Gershwin Room, which is home to some of our collection of Gershwin items, including George's piano. #GershwinPrizePBS

First to the stage at #GershwinPrizePBS , Marcus Mumford with his rendition of “Carey.” Marcus is one of the musicians who Joni regularly hosts in her home for jam sessions. At the concert, Marcus told this story about forgetting the lyrics to one of her songs at a 'Joni Jam.' 😬

I am getting goosebumps all over again watching Annie Lennox’s rendition of “Both Sides Now.”
We want to know what Emma Thompson thinks of this version! #loveactually #GershwinPrizePBS #GershwinPrizePBS

“I still pick up seashells and listen.”
Cyndi Lauper thanked Joni for helping to inspire her own artistic journey before singing “Blue.”
#GershwinPrize PBS #GershwinPrize

“Both Sides Now” has been covered by many artists and has touched generations of fans and Joni says it includes the director of the holiday classic “Love Actually.” #GershwinPrize PBS #GershwinPrize

We thought Cyndi Lauper just wanted us to have fun, but we're a little misty-eyed after hearing her talk on the #GershwinPrize concert red carpet about how Joni Mitchell inspired her as a teen. 🥺 Watch the show with us this Friday at 9 p.m. ET on PBS. #GershwinPrize PBS

The #GershwinPrize concert ended on such a high note, a singalong of “The Circle Game.”
There was another singalong the next day at Joni’s conversation with me during #LiveAtTheLibrary .

If you're watching #GershwinPrizePBS , you heard Brandi Carlile mention Joni Mitchell had polio as a child in the 1950s. We love what Joni had to say about that & about her more recent brain aneurysm during a public conversation with Carla Hayden the week of the concert. 👇

Happy birthday Brandi Carlile! Throwback to her incredible performance of Joni Mitchell's 'Shine' at #GershwinPrizePBS .
