More about this title

About the Artist: Barbra Streisand

Barbra Streisand's career spans six decades as a singer, actress, and filmmaker. Her distinctive mezzo-soprano voice and interpretive sophistication have made her one of the best-selling recording artists of all time, with particular strength in jazz standards, musical theater, and contemporary pop ballads.

For music educators, Streisand's work offers masterclasses in phrasing, dynamics, and emotional restraint. Her recordings and published arrangements provide singers with models of how to honor a lyric while maintaining vocal health and artistry across an extended range.

Why we love this

This song gives singers a contemporary ballad with emotional weight and a clear harmonic foundation that doesn't require elaborate orchestration to land. Streisand's recording demonstrates how intentional phrasing and a relaxed approach to the melody can deepen the impact of a simple harmonic progression.

What to expect

Intimate and assured, with the quality of someone reflecting on a relationship rather than performing it. The song sits in a conversational register where sincerity requires no strain, allowing the emotional content to emerge through nuance instead of volume.

Who it's for

Vocalists preparing for auditions, recitals, or performances in contemporary pop, jazz, or adult contemporary styles will find this chart accessible yet vocally mature. The piano/vocal/chords format suits both self-accompanying pianists and those working with an accompanist.

How to get the most out of it

  • Study the original recording to absorb Streisand's approach to rubato and breath placement; her timing is deliberate and teaches singers where a phrase can breathe without losing momentum.
  • Treat the piano part as a conversational partner rather than a strict accompaniment; leave space for the instrument to phrase and respond between vocal phrases.
  • Balance the warmth of the lower register against the clarity needed in the upper register; this song rewards a singer who can stay connected from chest voice through the break.

How to use it

Include this in a recital program alongside other contemporary ballads or mixed repertoire to show a singer's range in modern idiom. It works well as a closing piece or in a set exploring love songs across styles.

Skills your students will build

  • Phrasing over chord changes in contemporary harmonic language
  • Balancing legit and belt approaches across the full vocal range
  • Interpreting a simple melody through dynamic variation and rubato
  • Piano accompaniment skills that support rather than double the vocal line
