Barbra Streisand's magnificent 1993 album, Back to Broadway, is a masterful celebration of the Great White Way's most iconic show tunes. This stunning collection, which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart, showcases Streisand's unparalleled vocal talent and cements her status as a legendary performer. As the follow-up to her hugely successful 1985 album, The Broadway Album, Back to Broadway features Streisand's breathtaking interpretations of beloved classics, including 'Some Enchanted Evening', 'The Music of the Night' (featuring Michael Crawford), and 'As If We Never Said Goodbye'.
With its rich, orchestral arrangements and Streisand's soaring vocals, this album is a must-listen for fans of musical theatre and adult standards. The album's 12 tracks, which also include duets with Johnny Mathis and a show-stopping rendition of 'With One Look' from Sunset Boulevard, demonstrate Streisand's remarkable range and emotional depth. Released on 29 June 1993, Back to Broadway earned Streisand the distinction of being the only female artist to have a number-one album in four different decades, a testament to her enduring talent and appeal. Produced by Streisand herself, along with Andrew Lloyd Webber, this album is a triumph of musical storytelling and a fitting tribute to the magic of Broadway.
