Legendary Send-Off

Kenny G opened the service with a solo performance, while Dionne Warwick eulogized the great record executive

Bruce Springsteen, Alicia Keys, and Jennifer Hudson were expected to pay their respects to Clive Davis at the legendary record exec’s funeral Monday in New York City.

The service at Manhattan’s Central Synagogue opened with a performance of “Songbird” from Kenny G, one of the many blockbuster artists Davis signed during his illustrious career. Later in the service, Jennifer Hudson delivered a staggering rendition of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.”

Following an address and performance of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” from rabbi Angela Warnick Buchdahl, Dionne Warwick was the first to pay tribute to Davis.
