Editorial Reviews :
Bernadette Peters Loves Rodgers & Hammerstein ... and if they could hear this collection, they would love her right back. The curly-haired, honey-voiced Tony-winning star has been more closely associated throughout her career with Stephen Sondheim and Jerry Herman, but she's perfectly suited to the grand waltzes and introspective moments of the R&H canon. 'If I Loved You,' 'It Might As Well Be Spring,' and 'Something Wonderful' would probably make anyone's wish list for this combination of star and songs (a list that would also last much longer than 46 minutes). Other welcome selections include 'Some Enchanted Evening,' 'Out of My Dreams,' the little-known 'I Haven't Got a Worry in the World' (from the play Happy Birthday), and the inside joke of 'There Is Nothing Like a Dame,' all supported by the baton and orchestrations of Sondheim favorite Jonathan Tunick. This is a warm valentine to the beloved songwriting team.
Buyer Reviews :
I love Bernadette Peters and bought the album because of her; thinking I could put up with the 'old fashioned sounding' of Rogers & Hammerstein's words and music. After all--some of these songs are almost 50 years old. But between Bernadette's singing and the arrangements and conducting of Jonathan Tunick--it all seemed fresh again.
