Old songs, new songs, and big production numbers. Audience-filled seats of a concert hall with a formidable history, and one spotlight. Who else but Liza Minnelli could sing, talk and dance in these conditions, and make it seem as if nothing could be more natural? The daughter of entertainer/legend Judy Garland and musical film director Vincent Minnelli, if anyone is at home on a stage, it's Minnelli.
This CD of her historic performances at Carnegie Hall is filled with variety. The performer's emotional shadings vary from her soft intonation on "How Deep Is the Ocean" to the conversational good humor and carnival spirit of "Ring Them Bells." But she shines brightest when she takes the Ebb and Kander compositions like "Maybe This Time" and "Cabaret" and belts them with a fervor that tugs at the listener's heartstrings.
