 | | It's true that Jane as some annoying mannerisms on stage and whoever did her makeup for this performance could be doing clown makeup for the circus. |
 | | Yet a figure appears in the spotlight before an audience and suddenly the room is immersed in a splendid tapestry of sound, so fresh, so effervescent that you hear a familiar standard as if you are hearing it for the first time. |
 | | Then, when one least expects it, the orchestra inobtrusively joins in to create a lush, seamless musical tapestry, as if voice and orchestra are one; the stage lights come to life; the figure turns toward the audience and, without dropping a grace note, fills The Rainbow Room with a dazzling, iridescent blaze of notes. |
