CD's 2007 MAC Award 2007 Back Stage Bistro Award WRITTEN IN THE STARS
"Here's more proof that the fusion of jazz and cabaret is one of the healthiest trends in the music business. Cabaret singers have taste, built-in dramatic chops, the ability to manipulate time, and, above all, respect for lyrics. Ms. Fasano, whose background includes working all the right rooms with all the right jazz musicians, has plenty of the above. In addition, she's had a life-long hero-worship for Harold Arlen. Face it: A singer who lacks appreciation for an Arlen tune shouldn't be in the biz. "With this record, Barbara Fasano proves that she is not just a great Italian crooner, an heir to Sinatra for our time, but a jazz singer of the first rank." -- David Hajdu, music critic, The New Republic and author of Lush Life and Positively Fourth Street "The good news today is that we now have another Arlen collection that can be played alongside Harold’s ... praise the band, and the singer, and thank them for a bluesy, jazzy, swinging album of Arlen." "Ms. Fasano is a charismatic stylist who effectively channels the living spirits of the great über-divas Lena Horne and Barbra Streisand." 1999 Back Stage Bistro Award
