More about this title

About the Artist: Barbra Streisand

Barbra Streisand's vocal artistry and interpretive depth have shaped American popular music for over six decades. Her distinctive phrasing, emotional directness, and technical mastery make her recordings essential listening for musicians studying how to carry a melody with conviction and nuance.

Why we love this

This arrangement captures the warmth and intimacy of Streisand's performance at a level that piano students can actually inhabit. The easy voicings preserve the song's emotional arc without requiring advanced technique, letting players focus on the expressive, rubato-based phrasing that makes this song so affecting.

What to expect

Warm, introspective, and emotionally direct. The arrangement settles into intimate harmony that lets the melody breathe without unnecessary decoration.

Who it's for

Adult piano students and intermediate pianists drawn to song-based repertoire will find this accessible and musically rewarding. This works equally well for students building performance confidence or looking to expand their contemporary music literacy.

How to get the most out of it

  • Shape the melody with the kind of breath-aware phrasing you hear in Streisand's recording; treat phrase endings with a gentle lift rather than a hard stop.
  • Lean into the harmonic richness of the left hand accompaniment; resist the urge to rush through slower-moving chords.
  • Use pedal sparingly and intentionally to blend harmonies without muddying the clarity of the melodic line.

How to use it

Include this in a student recital program alongside art songs or other standards to show range beyond classical training. It's also a natural choice for adult ensemble or salon-style performance settings where contemporary repertoire deepens the listening experience.

Skills your students will build

  • Expressive melody playing with rubato
  • Harmonic awareness and voice-leading in accompaniment patterns
  • Phrasing and breath control applied to instrumental music
  • Pedal technique for blending without blur
