O’s Notes: Barbara is a show style singer with a strong voice and a wealth of expression. She performs thirteen popular songs from the American Songbooks. Porteus is an accomplished theater performer and her stage presence is very evident as she moves gracefully through each selection. She is very articulate and dramatic giving her all to each tune. Her support comes from a fine quintet including Barry Levitt (p), Mayra Casales (per) and Eric Udel (b). Among the best are “The Gentleman Is A Dope” and “Too Late Now”.
