Then we have “He Plays the Violin" as Martha Jefferson, played by Betty Buckley, sings about her husband Tom. We will follow that with two songs from the two person musical I Do! I Do!. First, Robert Preston sings “I Love My Wife” then he duets with Mary Martin on “My Cup Runneth Over”. Here’s “Yours, Yours, Yours” from 1776.
