O’s Notes: Catherine is singing in front of a large ensemble with strings and brass. They are a well-knit combination. We feel this on the title track with Dupuis scatting in sync with trombonist Bruce Bonvissuto. That seamless interaction continues with the mild samba of “I Have Dreamed” and “I’ve Never Been In Love Before”, and a multitude of pretty ballads like “I Remember” and “The Best Is Yet To Come”. We keep listening and enjoying it!
