INFORMATION EVERY
QUEEN SHOULD KNOW…
Actress/singer/director/writer/composer/producer/designer/activist/philanthropist Barbra Streisand is the only artist ever to receive Oscar, Tony, Emmy, Grammy, Directors Guild of America, Golden Globe, National Endowment for the Arts and Peabody Awards, as well as the American Film Institute’s Lifetime Achievement Award. She is also the first female film director to receive the Kennedy Center.
The incomparable Barbra Streisand”s long-cherished desire to release an album of music with lyrics exclusively written by her collaborators and friends, Alan and Marilyn Bergman, is achieved on What Matters Most- Barbra Streisand Sings the Lyrics of Alan and Marilyn Bergman.
The new album, which Streisand personally produced, is comprised of ten Bergman songs which Streisand has never previously recorded. Included in the set are the Academy Award winning songs “The Windmill of your Mind” (from the 1968 film The Thomas Crown Affair); “So Many Stars” (originally a hit song for Sergio Mendes & Brazil ’66); “Nice ‘n’ Easy” (popularized by Frank Sinatra); and “That Face” (first recorded by Fred Astaire) . The CD is packaged in a jewel box with a 24-page color booklet. – What Matters Most – Barbra Streisand Sings The Lyrics of Alan And Marilyn Bergman (Deluxe Edition) (2 CDs)
Reflecting on her long-held desire to devote an entire album to the amazingly varied and consistently inspired music of the Bergmans, Streisand noted, “Alan and Marilyn Bergman have a remarkable gift for expressing affairs of the heart.”
The affection and respect between lyricists and artist is quite wonderful. “When we write a song, we hear Barbra,” said lyricists Alan and Marilyn Bergman. “She makes the connection from the heart to the mind, and it emerges through her voice.” Watch Barbra discuss the new CD and her process.
Deluxe edition includes a second CD featuring ten previously released performances of Barbra singing the lyrics of Alan and Marilyn Bergman including “The Way We Were”, “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers”, “Papa Can You Hear Me?” and “Pieces of Dreams”.
NOW THE CONTEST! Pre-order any configuration of Barbra’s new album and you’ll automatically be entered to win a trip to the premiere of My Mother’s Curse in Spring 2012. 2 airline tickets, hotel stay and tickets for the big event! Barbra Streisand.
