The 1981 program opened again with the popular "New York Fantasy" by Wayne Downey and "You Gotta Try" by Sammy Nestico. The program continued with the intriguing percussion feature "LA, Danse, du Bonheur". Once again "One More Time Chuck Corea" by Gene Puerling of Singers Unlimited played a big part of this year's show. The popular "Johnny One Note" by Rogers & Hart was the next production followed by Carlos Jobims' beautiful ballad "Dindi" that was the finale for this exciting show.
