Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
What's left for singers who already have Carnegie Hall under their belts? The Metropolitan Opera. Except it's not that easy for non-classical performers. On January 20, 2006, Barbara Cook--a Carnegie habitué, where she performed, for instance, her Sondheim tribute--became the first cabaret singer to perform at the Met as part of the house's regular season. It's a fitting choice: Cook, after all, is acknowledged as one of the very finest interpreters of the American Songbook. Backed simply by a quintet, the 78-year-old singer is at the top of her game, and even if her voice has lost its smooth luster, it's not about crystalline purity anymore, but about a woman filling every word and breath with decades of experience. She starts off with a tweaked version of Sweet Charity's "If They Could See Me Now" ("If they could see me now, that little gang of mine/Standing where Domingo sings with James Levine") then goes down an impeccable list of standards, most of which she's recorded before (but hey, it's gotta be classics at the Met). Cook is joined by two guests (Elaine Stritch was also at the show but isn't on the CD): Audra McDonald (sounding a little less smooth than usual on the solo "When Did I Fall in Love?" but recovering nicely for a duo with Cook on "Blue Skies") and Josh Groban (a lovely rendition of Sondheim's "Not While I'm Around" on his own, and another Sondheim piece, "Move On," with Cook). --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Catch Her Live, If You Can; If Not, There's This Marvelous Recording
Musical icon Barbara Cook took the stage of New York's Metropolitan Opera House on January 20th 2006, for an unprecedented event: for the first time in its 123 years, a non-classical female singer was granted a solo evening, as part of its official season. Ms Cook had as her special guests four-time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald, and the multi-platinum recording artist Josh Groban. (The evening required no advertising: it sold out its 3700 seats within five days,) And, luckily enough for us, ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Voice of an angel
I can't believe Barbara Cook is in her late 70s. Her voice is still unbelievably beautiful.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Icing for an Incredible Career "Cake"
Barbara Cook and The Met were made for each other, Although fans of Miss Cook probably have heard everything she sings in this concert, it still is an historic treasure. The only thing missing form this performance is the late Wally Harper, with whom she collaborated so brilliantly for over 30 years. Barbara Cook's intelligent "take" on any song, combined with a technical precision that remains impeccable, is an American treasure. I prefer to visit her in an intimate cabaret----but she glitters ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - What a voice
It's only Barbara Cook with the most beautiful voice and the best selection. Sit back and dream of sitting at the Met with Barbara and her guests. Who could ask for more?
