The third night of the Mabel Mercer Foundation’s Cabaret Convention was a salute to the late, great Sylvia Syms, hosted by Rex Reed. In addition to Rex’s many colorful stories about Syms and performances of songs she had sung, the audience was treated to a recording of the woman herself of Noël Coward’s “I’ll See You Again.”
