I actually saw Barbara Cook in this Broadway production. She remains one of the great singers ever. She only became better with age...and her concert at age 80 was unbelievable.

Her voice is absolutely crystal clear, it's AMAZING!

@Amanster07 Her vibrato is arguably perfect, actually. Her tone quality is out of this world.

This is one wonderful singer.. I mean a real singer! STill sings wonderfully and she is old!

Barbara Cook's name is synonymous with "The Music Man".
She made it what it was and still is, one of the great musicals of all time.

The Beatles also did this song as well. I thought that this was a Beatles song.

her vibrato is painful

How great to have this footage. Glorious talent. Why Hollywood would never give Cook a chance I'll never know. Shirley Jones? I mean - VANILLA!!!

Please don't mention Kristin Chenoweth and Barbara Cook in the same blog. It's like comparing Cocoa Puffs to caviar.
Barbara Cook nearing her eighties now I think... is still considered a singer's singer! Her presence on stage even nowadays is mesmerizing. She had the whole of the Sydney Opera House audience feeling breathless in wonder!

You're wrong - totally wrong for not pulling up Kristen Chenoweth's rendition.

Chenoweth's rendition is not a VAI product although I am sure it is quite lovely. The VAIMUSIC channel is exclusively for items published by VAI or distributed by them in the United States.
