to hit the high notes on 'When The Sun Comes Out', to save her voice for
the Wednesday show -- but she went for them anyway.

Impersonator.
-

-
Barbra played part of "Ma Premiere Chanson" on the Piano, and part of
"Evergreen" on the Guitar.
-
There was a playful part of the show when Barbra tried to figure out
which member of Il Divo had a crush on her.
-
Great set, a few different levels, lighted see thru banisters, no
backdrop, all open, so that people seated behind her will see her.
-
Barbra mentioned Harold Arlen before singing 'Come Rain Or Come Shine'
What did the fans say?
-
"I
have seen her sing 11 other times in my life. I have never seen her this
relaxed and playful".
-
"A few
people -- me included, stood up after 'Woman In The Moon'... She was so
appreciative, she looked over and said that she was very glad we liked
that song".
