A spokeswoman for the 88-year-old composer and conductor said Bacharach will skip scheduled performances on September 3 in Curacao and September 17 in Lancaster, California.

Publicist Tina Brausam said Bacharach plans to resume his touring schedule in October. She said she did not know how or when the six-time Grammy winner broke his arm.
