		Familiar to fans of Miss Upshaw are the 'Mirabai Songs' by John Harbison; she had previously recorded them on her CD 'The Girl with Orange Lips.' The recital starts with Bill Bolcom's hilarious 'Amor'; Upshaw 'sells' it with humor and the Paris audience eats it up.
		Upshaw makes graceful mention of de Gaetani in her introduction and then sings the socks off the song, equaling de Gaetani's recording of it.
		Dawn Upshaw is one of our leading recitalists, and perhaps has stepped into the void created by de Gaetani's too-early death, and we are in her debt for paying so much attention to new music, which she does so very well.

		Dawn Upshaw, the finest American soprano of her generation, grew up in Park Forest, Ill., a suburb of Chicago, and the folk music there is the American pop song: Gershwin, Rodgers and Hart, the Broadway tunes of Blitzstein, Bernstein and Sondheim (there's a limerick or a law firm in there somewhere).
		Upshaw's pure, limpid soprano, liquid sunshine, is ideal for this repertoire, and her acting experience in opera has honed her diction and delivery to the point that Ira Gershwin and Lorenz Hart seem wittier than ever.
		Upshaw is one of a handful of classical singers whose genius lies as much in her choice of material as in the delivery of it.
