Footnotes

Recorded April-May 1973, with early working title: Follow The Lieder. Track 1 recorded on May 29, 1973 in L.A.

Barbra has recalled the sessions as her "most difficult singing project."

Leonard Bernstein wrote, "Barbra Streisand's natural ability to make music takes her over to the classical field with extraordinary ease. It's clear that she loves these songs. In her sensitive, straightforward, and enormously appealing performance, she has given us a very special musical experience."
Digitally restored/remastered CD released.
