In concerts and televised interviews Barbra has often waxed nostalgically of being in the choir at Erasmus Hall High School, eating a Mellow Roll at the Loew’s King on Flatbush Avenue, and harmonizing as a child in the hallways and on stoops of her apartment in Brooklyn. These all seem like loving remembrances of a time and place that would eventually inspire an unparalleled, multifaceted career.

Given the pride with which she speaks of Brooklyn, New York and her roots throughout her career, I've always felt this quote, although humorous in a snarky way, did not ring true of Barbra.

Re: What Matters Most - Barbra Streisand Sings the Lyrics of Alan & Marilyn Bergman
The artistry displayed in this recording is the medium’s pinnacle. I’m not someone who cries easily while listening to music, but so many of these tracks brought me to tears. The emotional journey in the Bergman’s lyrics and Barbra’s interpretations reaches deep into the spirit and illuminates those spaces guarded and somber, yet joyous and cathartic. This was truly a master class for anyone seeking to use their voice to make people think and feel. Well done!
