Terry Gibbs Legacy Band: The Terry Gibbs Songbook
The feel is classic rather than contemporary. The musicians are top notch, and who would be a better choice for vocals than Danny Bacher.
Sean Patrick Murtagh: Beautiful Girls: A Tribute to Sondheim’s Divas
A show that occasionally veered into camp, but still found honest depth in the chosen material.
Otto Walberg
As a debut show, this was a very strong appearance replete with abundant charm, wit, and intelligence.
Jeff Harnar and Alex Rybeck: Our 40th Anniversary Songbook
It was the combined talent and warmth of Harnar and Rybeck that made this a memorable evening.
Megan Hilty
Her vocals adapted so perfectly to the material that you’d think there were several singers on stage.
Bob Levy: Ever Since We Met: The Dane Vannatter Recordings
Vannatter’s mellifluous singing, along with his elegant interpretations of Levy’s lyrics, that holds this recording together.
Pick of the Week: Karen Oberlin
Her rich lower register is well suited to the timbre of many of the songs, and her considerable interpretive skills communicate the power of the material.
