CD Reviews

This Almost Got 5 Stars

Lostgirl | 01/17/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Lesley Garrett has a gorgeous voice, that much is obvious. And it shines on tracks like Ave Maria, Bess You Is My Woman Now, Et Si Demain and The Summer Knows. While her voice is a bit heavy for a musical theater repitoire her renditions of A Boy Like That/I Have a Love and I Dreamed A Dream work really, really well. However she runs into problems on tracks like Work For No One/Blackbird, Mambo Italiano (which doesn't fit the mood of the rest of the album at all), and Over the Rainbow. I think that these are songs that sound better with a more relaxed, less "legit" sound which Garrett seems to have trouble with. It's definately worth getting for the highlights I mentioned above, as well as her duets but Michael Ball and Bryn Terfel. Both are lovely. Really the presence of a few awkward tracks keeps this from a 5 star rating"
